Is a skin booster the same as filler?
No. Although both are injectable treatments, they are selected and used for different objectives.

Skin quality from within
Skin boosters are injectable treatments intended to improve aspects of skin hydration, texture or support rather than create the contouring effect associated with traditional dermal fillers.
Katie uses a wide range of carefully selected skin-boosting products, including options such as Profhilo, Profhilo Structura and polynucleotides. Each product has different characteristics and intended uses, so the most appropriate option will be recommended only after assessing your skin, medical history and individual goals.
Commonly discussed areas
- Face and neck
- Delicate under-eye area
- Skin showing dryness or reduced elasticity
- Areas where gradual skin support is preferred
Your appointment
A course suited to you
Some products are delivered as a course rather than a single appointment. Recommended timing depends on the chosen product, your skin and the treatment objective.
Recovery and aftercare
Small raised areas, redness, tenderness, swelling or bruising may be visible temporarily after injections. Katie will explain expected recovery, aftercare and warning signs before treatment.
Results vary, and no treatment can stop the normal ageing process.
