In the world of aesthetic treatments, two terms are often misunderstood — skin boosters and dermal fillers. While both involve injections and hyaluronic acid (HA), their purposes, outcomes, and techniques differ significantly. At Mesglo Aesthetic Clinic in Marylebone, London, we believe that understanding these distinctions is essential to making informed decisions about your skin.



Whether you're seeking hydration, volume restoration, or natural rejuvenation, knowing the difference between skin boosters and fillers can help you choose the right treatment — or even the right combination — for your goals.



What Are Skin Boosters?



Skin boosters are injectable treatments designed to hydrate, smooth, and improve the texture of the skin. Unlike fillers, which are used to add volume, skin boosters deliver micro-droplets of hyaluronic acid (or other bio-stimulating agents) into the dermis to enhance skin quality.



What They Do:



💧 Improve hydration from within✨ Enhance skin glow and radiance🔬 Boost collagen production and elasticity🌿 Smooth fine lines and refine texture



Best For:



✔️ Dull or tired-looking skin✔️ Fine lines and early signs of ageing✔️ Dehydrated skin or loss of elasticity✔️ Face, neck, décolleté, and hands



Popular skin boosters include Exosomes, Seventy Hyal, and polynucleotide-based solutions like Nucleofill or Lumi Eyes for the delicate under-eye area.



What Are Dermal Fillers?



Dermal fillers are injectable gels that restore or add volume to specific facial areas. Most are made from a denser form of hyaluronic acid and are used to reshape, contour, or lift features such as the cheeks, chin, jawline, lips, and under-eyes. https://mesglolondon.co.uk/the-difference-between-skin-boosters-and-dermal-fillers-and-why-it-matters/
