Skin Boosters in Dubai
Micro-injection treatments that hydrate from within — restoring glow, firmness and smoothness to tired, dry or ageing skin.
What skin boosters do
Skin boosters are micro-injections of hyaluronic acid, amino acids or regenerative compounds placed just under the skin's surface. Where fillers restore volume, boosters improve the skin itself — hydration, fine crepiness, dullness and texture. Dubai's climate makes them a popular choice for dehydrated skin.

Skin boosters or Profhilo?
They are related but distinct. Classic boosters hydrate specific zones across a course of sessions, while Profhilo is an ultra-pure hyaluronic acid bio-remodeling treatment that spreads through the skin. Dr. Bahar recommends the right option — or combination — after a skin assessment.
Consultation, sessions and downtime
Treatment begins with a skin assessment to match the booster to your concern. A course commonly involves two to three sessions a few weeks apart, with results developing as hydration builds. Downtime is minimal — small surface bumps at the injection points usually settle within a day, and most patients return to normal activity immediately.
Side effects, risks and suitability
Common and usually short-lived
Small bumps along the injection points for up to a day, redness, tenderness and occasional small bruises.
Less common but important
Infection, allergic reaction or persistent small lumps are uncommon and should be reported. With microneedling-based treatments, temporary redness and sensitivity similar to mild sunburn are expected.
When it may not be suitable
Pregnancy or breastfeeding, active skin infection or inflammation in the area, or a known allergy to any ingredient. Active acne flare-ups or eczema in the area may mean waiting.
Your consultation covers your medical history, medicines and allergies, so Dr Bahar can advise whether a treatment is right for you.
Downtime and aftercare
Avoid make-up for about 12 hours and saunas, intense heat, strenuous exercise and strong active skincare (such as retinoids or acids) for a day or two. Use sun protection afterwards.
Frequently asked questions
What is a skin booster?
A micro-injection treatment that places hyaluronic acid, amino acids or regenerative compounds just under the skin to hydrate and improve quality, glow and fine texture — without adding volume.
What's the difference between skin boosters and Profhilo?
Classic boosters hydrate specific zones across a few sessions; Profhilo is an ultra-pure hyaluronic acid that spreads within the skin for bio-remodeling. Dr. Bahar advises which suits your skin after assessment.
How long do skin boosters last?
Results from a course commonly last several months, with maintenance sessions when your skin begins to need them. Dr. Bahar reviews your skin at each visit.
Which areas can be treated?
Face, neck, under eyes and hands — the areas where hydration and texture show first.
Is there downtime after skin boosters?
Minimal. Small bumps at the injection points typically settle within about a day, and most patients continue normal activity the same day.
