Skin Booster
What are Skin Boosters?
Micro-injections of hyaluronic acid that hydrate the skin from within. They are designed to improve glow, elasticity and fine lines rather than add volume.
Areas we treat
Face, for texture and radiance
Neck and décolleté, for crepey skin and fine lines
Hands, for thin, dry skin
Shallow acne scars
The Luníc approach
Tiny droplets or a microcannula for an even result
