Skin Boosters.
Deep hydration for skin that feels tired, dull or dry. Skin boosters improve the quality of the skin itself, helping it look smoother, fresher and more radiant over time, without changing your features.

Skin boosters are injectable treatments designed to deeply hydrate the skin, improve its texture and soften the appearance of fine lines.
They are not fillers. Rather than adding volume or changing the shape of your face, they work within the skin, replenishing moisture and supporting its quality. The result is skin that looks and feels smoother, softer and healthier. People notice you look well, not that you have had something done.
There are several skin boosters, and each suits slightly different skin. I offer two: Seventy Hyal 2000 and Profhilo. At your free consultation, we talk about your skin, what you would like to change and your medical history, and I recommend the one I think will suit you best. If a booster isn't the right choice for you, I will tell you.
For the best results, an initial course is usually recommended, followed by maintenance treatments tailored to your skin.
Treatments take place in a calm, private room at ShoreRooms in Shoreham-by-Sea, a few minutes from Brighton and Worthing.
For skin that has lost its glow.
Skin boosters suit adults who want their skin to look fresher and healthier, with subtle, natural-looking results.
Dry, dehydrated skin
Skin that feels tight or thirsty, however much moisturiser you use.
Dull or tired-looking skin
Skin that has lost its brightness and looks lacklustre.
Fine lines
Early fine lines that soften as the skin becomes better hydrated.
Uneven texture
Skin that looks or feels less smooth than it used to.
Reduced firmness
Early signs of ageing, where the skin has lost some of its bounce and elasticity.
Keeping skin at its best
Regular maintenance treatments to support your skin over time.
Often a good fit if you…
- want fresher, healthier-looking skin without changing your features
- would prefer subtle, gradual results over a dramatic change
- feel your skin care routine has stopped making a difference
- are happy to commit to a short course of treatments
Two boosters, chosen for your skin.
You don't need to choose before you come in. I will recommend the right one at your consultation.
Seventy Hyal 2000
A hydrating skin booster designed to improve overall skin quality, texture and radiance. Containing hyaluronic acid, it helps replenish moisture within the skin and soften the appearance of fine lines.

- Skin that feels dehydrated, lacklustre or in need of a fresh, healthy-looking glow
- Initial course
- 3 treatments, four weeks apart
- Maintenance
- A top-up every 6 to 12 months
- From
- £160
Profhilo
An injectable hyaluronic acid treatment designed to improve hydration, firmness and overall skin quality without adding facial volume. It works across the treated area to support smoother, firmer, more radiant-looking skin.
- Best suited for
- Skin showing reduced hydration, firmness or elasticity, often with early signs of ageing
- Initial course
- 2 treatments, four weeks apart
- Maintenance
- A top-up every 3 to 6 months

Results vary from person to person and build gradually over the weeks following your course. How long they last depends on your skin, age and lifestyle, which is why maintenance treatments are planned around you.

Before, during and after.
Before
- Come to your free consultation first, so we can check the treatment is right for you
- Let me know about any medication, supplements or recent treatments
- If you can, avoid alcohol for 24 hours beforehand, as it can make bruising more likely
- Come without make-up if possible
During
- Your skin is cleansed and the treatment points are marked
- The booster is placed with small, precise injections
- Most people describe a brief pinching sensation; numbing cream is available if you would like it
After
- Small raised bumps at the injection points are normal. Leave them alone: don't rub or massage them, and they will settle on their own within 24 to 48 hours
- Some redness, swelling or slight bruising is possible
- Avoid make-up for 12 hours
- Avoid alcohol for 24 hours, and ibuprofen or aspirin unless they are prescribed for you. Paracetamol is fine if you feel tender
- Avoid strenuous exercise for 24 to 48 hours, and saunas, steam rooms, hot tubs and very hot showers for 48 hours
- Keep your skincare gentle for the first few days, pausing retinol, exfoliating acids and vitamin C
- Wear SPF 30 to 50 every day, and avoid strong sun and sunbeds for at least a week
- Drink plenty of water and stay well hydrated
- Wait two weeks before facials, peels, dermaplaning or microneedling
- You go home with written aftercare and can contact me with any questions

I would rather recommend the right treatment than the most treatment. If your skin would respond better to something simpler, I will say so.
Right person. Right treatment. Right reason.
Frequently asked.
Are skin boosters the same as fillers? expand_more
No. Fillers are used to add volume or change shape. Skin boosters are designed to hydrate and improve the quality of the skin itself, so your features stay the same and your skin simply looks fresher and healthier.
Which skin booster is right for me? expand_more
That depends on your skin and what you would like to change. As a guide, Seventy Hyal 2000 focuses on hydration, radiance, texture and fine lines, while Profhilo is often chosen when the skin has also lost some firmness and elasticity. I will recommend the right one at your free consultation.
Does it hurt? expand_more
Most people find it very manageable and describe a brief pinching sensation with each injection. Numbing cream can be applied beforehand if you would like it.
When will I see results? expand_more
Some people notice their skin looks more hydrated soon after treatment, but results build gradually over the course and the weeks that follow. That is why a course is recommended rather than a single session.
How long do results last? expand_more
It varies with your skin, age and lifestyle. After your initial course, top-ups keep your results going: usually every 6 to 12 months for Seventy Hyal 2000, and every 3 to 6 months for Profhilo. We plan the timing together, based on how your skin responds.
Is there any downtime? expand_more
Most people go back to their day straight away. Small bumps at the injection points are normal and settle on their own within 24 to 48 hours, and some redness, swelling or bruising is possible. If you have an event coming up, book your treatment at least two weeks before.
Can I combine skin boosters with other treatments? expand_more
Often, yes. Skin boosters can work well as part of a wider plan. A facial skin analysis is a helpful starting point if you would like a plan that looks at your skin as a whole.
Is the consultation free? expand_more
Yes. Consultations are free for every treatment at The Barefaced Edit, with no pressure to book on the day.
