Active ingredients are precisely injected into the dermis
to care for skin texture, elasticity, and hydration step by step.
Why Lisoom
Skin boosters are a category of treatments in which supportive ingredients are precisely injected into the dermis in multiple layers to improve hydration, elasticity, and regenerative capacity. Depending on the ingredient, they are divided into HA (hyaluronic acid), PN (polynucleotide), PDLLA (poly-D,L-lactic acid, a collagen stimulator), ECM (extracellular matrix), exosomes, PRP, and others, each with a different mechanism of action and expected effect.
No single booster addresses every skin concern. Treatment is performed under topical anesthesia, and results settle in gradually over a series of sessions usually spaced 2-4 weeks apart. Because results vary between individuals, the suitable ingredient is decided during the consultation.
DESIGN PRINCIPLE
Boosters based on non-cross-linked hyaluronic acid mainly work by hydrating the dermis and improving skin texture. Unlike cross-linked fillers, the volume itself does not last long, but hydration and texture recovery settle in quickly. Representative products include Juvelook Volume and Skinvive.
Boosters based on polynucleotide (PN) extracted from salmon DNA activate fibroblasts, stimulating the recovery of dermal thickness and collagen production. The Rejuran series is a representative product line. They are often recommended when dermal recovery itself is the priority.
PDLLA (Poly-D, L-Lactic Acid)-based boosters provide immediate volume while gradually stimulating collagen production. Juvelook is a representative product. They are suitable for those who want some volume enhancement along with the recovery of dermal thickness.
There are various other boosters, including ECM-based boosters (Re2O), exosomes, and PRP, each with a different mechanism of action. The suitable ingredient is decided during the consultation based on the patient's skin goals and the combination with other treatments.
OUR PRINCIPLE
With skin boosters, no single ingredient is the answer to every skin concern. The ingredient and series that fit the patient's goals are decided during the consultation.
Ingredient Suitability
HA, PN, PDLLA, ECM, exosomes, PRP, and other ingredients each work differently. After assessing the patient's skin thickness, pores, fine lines, pigmentation, and elasticity, the suitable ingredient is decided during the consultation. We do not recommend trending products across the board.
How Results Unfold
We explain in advance that a major change is difficult to expect from 1 session. A series of 3 sessions spaced 2-4 weeks apart is the usual standard, and we make sure patients understand beforehand that this is a treatment whose results settle in gradually.
Combination First
Skin boosters are meaningful on their own, but they are also often used in a supporting role during recovery from other treatments (laser, fillers, Botox). The order and combination of treatments are decided during the consultation according to the patient's skin condition and schedule.
Skin boosters are not a single treatment but a group of boosters whose actions differ by ingredient. HA focuses on hydration and improving skin texture, PN (polynucleotide derived from salmon DNA) on recovering dermal thickness by stimulating fibroblasts, PDLLA on inducing the body's own collagen production, and ECM on replenishing the structural proteins of the dermis. Even among boosters, the choice differs when the goal differs. · HA (hyaluronic acid): hydration and texture support · PN (polynucleotide): recovery of dermal thickness · PDLLA: collagen stimulation and gradual volume · ECM, exosomes, PRP: structural replenishment and recovery stimulation
Skin boosters are distributed widely across the dermis in multiple layers to improve the recovery environment of the dermis itself. Results depend on dense distribution rather than concentration on one area. Rather than expecting a major change from 1 session, results usually build up and settle in over a series of around 3 sessions spaced 2-4 weeks apart. · Multilayer, wide-area distribution in the dermis · Usually a series at 2-4 week intervals · Topical anesthesia generally used to reduce pain · Also used as support during recovery from other treatments

Doctor's Note
Skin boosters work differently depending on the ingredient, so no single product is the answer to every skin concern. We assess the patient's skin thickness, pores, fine lines, and elasticity, and then decide on the suitable ingredient and series. We do not recommend trending products across the board, and we give honest guidance in a 1:1 consultation.
PROCEDURE FLOW
01
PHASE I
We look at thickness, pores, fine lines, pigmentation, and elasticity, and decide together during the consultation which booster ingredient fits your goal.
02
PHASE II
Topical anesthesia suited to the chosen booster is used to reduce pain, and the injection areas and distribution plan are checked.
03
PHASE III
Rather than concentrating on one area, the product is distributed densely and widely across the dermis to support the skin's recovery environment.
04
PHASE IV
We recommend letting the skin settle for 1-2 days after treatment, and we plan the cumulative schedule at 2-4 week intervals together with any combination with other treatments.
