Skin Booster (Skin Booster)
This is an injectable procedure that delivers ingredients directly into the skin to improve texture and elasticity. Products vary by ingredients and target areas and are categorized during consultation; treatments are often carried out across multiple sessions.
Skin Booster, Summary of the Essentials
Skin booster is a collective term for injectable treatments that directly deliver ingredients into the skin to target texture, hydration, and elasticity. Because each product contains different ingredients and targets different skin layers, the choice depends on whether the goal is texture or elasticity. Rather than completing the process in a single session, it is often performed over multiple sessions, and injection marks and swelling may be visible for a few days after the procedure. The required number of sessions and results vary by individual.

B:AID's Approach
Skin booster is an injectable treatment that shallowly and densely injects hyaluronic acid or skin-regenerating ingredients across the dermal layer of the face. Unlike fillers that fill a specific area to create shape, it targets the skin's natural moisture retention and texture. Because the injection depth is shallow, injection marks and swelling are noticeable immediately after the procedure and subside over time. It is generally performed in multiple sessions at intervals to observe the response rather than finishing in one session, and the ingredients and injection amount are adjusted according to skin thickness and sensitivity. The degree of response and duration of results vary by individual.
