We all have different skin types with unique goals and needs. But, if there’s one thing that unites us, it's the pursuit of great skin quality.

A radiant, hydrated appearance and firm tone are all key indicators of a well-cared-for skin, and are at the top of most of our beauty wishlists. But high-quality skin can be increasingly hard to achieve as we age. Our increasingly busy lives, stress, sleep disruption, and hormones can all negatively impact how we look and feel, and three of the biggest culprits are depleted moisture, collagen, and elastin.

So, how can we replenish what’s lost? By taking a synergistic, layered approach. Combining collagen-boosting treatments with moisture-replenishing ones is a recipe for success in creating a healthy-looking, natural glow. And that’s where Restylane Skinboosters and Sculptra come in.

A synergistic duo for glow

Skincare is a personal journey. Whether you opt to use topical products, such as the science-backed Alastin Skincare range, try an injectable treatment, or several that work together, the most important thing is to be informed about exactly what benefits each option can offer.

Sculptra, explained

As a proven regenerative biostimulator, Sculptra can help improve skin quality in multifaceted ways, across all three layers of the skin. Alongside the ability to increase collagen by as much as 66.5% in three months, this injectable treatment works to improve the quality of elastin by 34% in the same period. This results in a natural-looking rejuvenating effect, volume, and firmness boost that keeps getting better for months and can last for two years.

Restylane Skinboosters, explained

Hyaluronic acid (HA) is one of the most effective skin-hydrating ingredients, and Restylane Skinboosters work to infuse the skin with microdroplets of HA for a bio-revitalization effect. This deeply hydrates the skin for a healthy, fresh glow as well as revving up collagen and elastin production. Not only does this injectable offer benefits on six aspects of skin quality for up to 15 months, but it can also be used to rejuvenate the neck, décolletage, and hands, too.

The next step

Once you feel confidently educated in what Restylane Skinboosters and Sculptra do, the next layer is understanding how they could work for you - either individually or together for a synergistic effect. As with any injectable treatment, a thorough consultation with a qualified practitioner can help you make the right decision for you and your skin - and begin your journey.
