These skin hydration treatments improve your skin quality and enhance its natural glow. Skin wellness is important to us, and with skin boosters, you can easily improve the quality of your skin.
What are Skinboosters™ and Volite treatments?
These treatments are deep hydration procedures where hyaluronic acid is injected into the skin tissue to increase skin moisture, elasticity, and structure. The treatments improve skin quality by moisturizing, firming, and smoothing fine wrinkles. Treatment areas can include the hands, neck, face, and décolletage.
What results can be expected from the treatments?
Deep hydration treatments improve skin elasticity, hydrate dry skin, reduce fine lines, and slow the formation of new lines. These treatments improve skin irregularities, such as scars, making the skin smoother. After the treatment, your skin will appear immediately more hydrated, youthful, and vibrant.
Are there any restrictions related to the treatment?
Treatments are not performed on pregnant or breastfeeding individuals. At Klinik Linnea, the minimum age for injection treatments is 18. Contraindications for the treatment include active herpes, inflammation, or active skin diseases in the treatment area, excessive scarring, porphyria, permanent fillers or implants in the treatment area, skin damage or open wounds in the area, active skin cancer, warts, bacterial or fungal infections, frostbite, or sunburn, and active oral inflammations.
Underlying health conditions and any medications must be well-managed. Medications affecting blood clotting should be mentioned to the treating nurse or doctor. Klinik Linnea does not recommend a dentist visit within two weeks before or after filler treatments. If you have questions about the suitability of the treatment for you, please contact the Klinik Linnea staff.
Recovery time
Deep hydration treatments use a cannula or very fine needle, which means the recovery time is short. Most of Klinik Linnea’s clients return to work immediately and continue their normal activities after the treatment. Some clients may experience normal side effects like swelling, tenderness, or bruising at the injection site. These reactions usually disappear within a couple of days, and we always recommend considering these when planning the timing of the treatment.
Maintaining results
Results can last from 9 to 12 months, depending on the product used. The treating nurse or doctor will provide guidance on how to maintain the results. Klinik Linnea recommends using a skincare protocol specifically designed for your skin, such as ZO Skin Health or AlumierMD, and applying at least SPF30 sunscreen regardless of the season.
FAQ
How should I prepare for the treatment?
We recommend eating before your treatment and arriving without makeup. Due to the increased risk of bruising and bleeding, we do not recommend taking anti-inflammatory drugs (e.g., ibuprofen) for three days before the treatment and natural supplements (e.g., Omega-3, vitamin E) one week before. If you need pain relief, we recommend using paracetamol. We will send you an electronic pre-treatment form to fill out before your appointment.
What is included in the treatment?
The treatment includes a consultation, skin cleansing, the procedure itself, post-treatment cream, aftercare instructions, and a relaxing and restorative Klinik Linnea experience.
How long does the treatment take?
The treatment takes about 30-90 minutes, depending on the area being treated.
Is there pain during the treatment?
There is no pain or mild discomfort. We use products containing lidocaine (a local anesthetic) to make the treatment as comfortable as possible. If needed, we can apply a topical numbing cream to the treatment area. Holding an icepack on the area during treatment also helps to alleviate sensations.
What are the most typical reactions after the treatment?
Some clients may experience normal side effects like swelling, redness, tenderness, or bruising at the injection site. These reactions usually subside within a couple of days, and we recommend always preparing for these when considering the timing of your treatment.
What are the aftercare instructions?
Detailed post-care instructions will be provided during the treatment. On the treatment day, avoid touching the area and ensure enhanced hygiene for the treated area. Do not apply cosmetics to the area during the first 24 hours to reduce the risk of infection. The following day, avoid intense physical exertion, saunas, excessive sweating, or direct UV exposure. We also recommend avoiding other facial treatments, facial massages, and procedures around the mouth and face for two weeks after the treatment. Klinik Linnea recommends using SPF50 sunscreen year-round. If you have questions about recovery, please contact the professional who treated you.
