Boost & Glow Treatment
About the Boost & Glow Treatment
A revolution in skin hydration to rejuvenate dull, dry skin and reduce fine lines and wrinkles!
Boost & Glow treatment is a completely customisable with a wide range of applications to target dehydrated skin, fne lines and wrinkles. It can be used to achieve tighter, firmer skin on the face, lower eyelid, forehead, neck, décolletage and hands.
We create a customised cocktail for your skin requirements, whether that’s hydration, firming, brightening, booating collagen and elastin to improve fine lines and wrinkles and genrally improve the overall tone and texture of your skin.
Your customised skin cocktail is delivered via The V2 injector device.
The V2 injector is a delivery device that allows us to place serums beneath the skin at a precise depth and accurate dosing for a quick and effective treatment with minimal pain and downtime for patients.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
The V2 injector device uses multi-needles – from 5 needles up to 9, allowing for the procedure to be performed in a short treatment time. The benefit of multi-needle injections allows for decrease in the amount of pain experienced by clients during the procedure as the sensation is decreased relative to single needle injections.
The device is innovative in that it works by applying a light suction to the skin prior to every injection. This leads to a more comfortable and accurate procedure, allowing for accurate and precise depth delivery, ensuring the patient receives a uniform delivery of product to the area being treated. This also reduces bruising and swelling.
WHAT CAN THE BOOST AND GLOW TREAT?
The Boost and Glow can reduce fine lines and imperfections, such as acne scarring and photo-damaged (sun damaged) skin, gradually improving your skin’s condition and elasticity.It delivers hydration deep inside the skin and can be used on exposed and sensitive areas such as the face, neck, décolletage and hands.
This is a progressive rejuvenating treatment that is long-lasting with natural looking results to:
- Increase skin elasticity and firm the skin
- Hydrate skin deep in the dermis for ongoing skin hydration
- Improve skin lustre and luminosity
- Smooth and soften the skin
- Restore plumpness and radiance.
What is the Treatment Process?
The treatment itself only takes about half an hour, and is quick, and relatively risk free. We apply a medical grade anaesthetic cream about 30 minutes prior to starting the treatment so maximum comfort is upheld throughout.
The result you can expect from this treatment is visibly smoother, softer and more youthful looking skin and it can be experienced just after one treatment.
Best results are obtained with a series of 3 treatments performed 6 weeks apart.
The benefits last up to 12 months, with a single treatment performed thereafter every 12 months or so.
DOWN TIME
Despite it being an injectable treatment, the down time with the Boost and Glow is minimal You may experience some redness, swelling, heat which may last up to 24 hours for most people and of course there is always the possibility of bruising which can last up to 7-10 days.
IS IT PAINFUL?
It’s a very comfortable procedure as we numb your skin prior to the treatment.
HOW MANY DO I NEED?
For fine lines and wrinkles and improving skin tone and texture we recommend 3 – 4 treatments 6 weeks apart.
COST
$399 per treatment and treatment takes one hour
ADDITIONAL ADD ONS:
Boost and Glow with Botulinum Toxin $599
You can add Boutlinum toxin to the Boost and Glow which gives you a filter-like effect to your skin. Botulinum toxin when injected superfically into the skin rather than the muscle can help improve the appearance of pores, decrease sweating and redness and leave you with a beautiful canvas for your makeup. This particular treatment is very popular with our brides and a great pre-event treatment.
Boost and Glow with PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma) $799
Take your results to the next level by adding in PRP. PRP adds in your own additional growth factors to supercharge your collagen and elastin rebuilding. It is as simple as taking your blood, exactly the same way it gets done when you have a blood test. We then spin the blood and it separates the platelet rich plasma from the red blood cells. We then add your platelet rich plasma into the cocktail of serums and complete the treatment in eaxactly the same way, just with a supercharged cocktail.
