Skin Boosters
Revive your dreams of youthful, radiant skin with Belotero® Revive.
At Ojo, we’re thrilled to introduce Belotero® Revive, a pioneering skin rejuvenation solution tailored to address a myriad of ageing concerns, designed to restore your skin’s vibrancy and youthfulness.
Belotero® Revive is not new to the market but simply new to New Zealand. It has been used for over 5 years in Europe with fantastic results.
Belotero® Revive is the only dermal filler on the market that contains a unique combination of Hyaluronic Acid and Glycerol, specifically designed for skin rejuvenation and revitalisation of early signs of sun damage. This fabulous filler is a turbo-hydrator and is a useful early intervention treatment that offers a natural-looking and enhanced skin look.
What can Skin Boosters do?

Rehydrates dry skin

What sets the Revive Skin Booster apart from other skincare treatments is its powerful combination of ingredients that work together to provide maximum results. With Hyaluronic acid and Glycerol, this treatment addresses multiple skin issues simultaneously. Hyaluronic acid provides intense hydration while Glycerol is one of the most hydrating substances in the polyalcohol family. Glycerol has been shown to enhance the potency of Hyaluronic acid, promoting a stronger moisturising effect from the inside out. Together they work to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and revive and rejuvenate your skin like never before.
Unlike topical solutions, providing this in an injectable form allows us to distribute the product exactly where it is needed across multiple layers of the skin, providing a tailored approach to every patient.
Revive is the newest product in the BELOTERO® portfolio of fillers. The injectable, resorbable hyaluronic acid, combined with Glycerol, rehydrates the skin, improving elasticity and firmness, and smoothing superficial fine lines by reducing skin roughness.

FAQs

Skin Boosters treat dull, dehydrated, and rough skin to improve skin brightness, hydration and texture. Like Dermal Fillers, they are made from a sugar that is naturally occurring in your own skin called hyaluronic acid. They work by drawing water to the dermis of the skin to restore the hydrobalance. They also stimulate your own collagen network to combat age-related thinning of skin. The end result is smoother, softer surface that glows.

Skin boosters are essentially a form of injectable skin care. They are suitable for all skin types, but are particularly effective at transforming dull, dehydrated, and rough skin. They are otherwise known as skin glow treatments. All areas of the face can be treated, from the forehead to the chin, even the neck, although more commonly the lower face is targeted where skin tends to sag more with laxity. The backs of hands can also be rejuvenated using Skin Boosters to minimise the appearance of sinuous tendons and other age-related changes.

We will assess your face or hands to see if you are a good candidate for Skin Boosters. Local anaesthetic injections can be used at the entry site to numb the area prior to treatment and Skin Boosters come prepackaged already containing local anaesthetic, so overall the procedure is relatively comfortable. We use a cannula (a fine blunt-ended instrument to bypass bloods vessels and nerves) to administer the product. Most clients will undergo treatment with 2-3mls of product in a single appointment.
-
You will be booked with us for a 45-minute appointment to allow enough time for thorough assessment prior to treatment and to address any questions you may have. However, the treatment time itself is closer to 15-30 minutes.
-
Almost all clients will leave the clinic looking refreshed with very little ‘evidence’ of treatment. Some will have immediate swelling and others minimal bruising. Skin Boosters tend to be quite hydrating and will draw water to the treatment area, so swelling may persist for 5-7 days, although generally it is quite minimal and not noticeable to others. Bruising is rare but also settles within 5-7 days. It is always important to time your Skin Booster treatment carefully.
-
Skin Boosters have an immediate effect so you will see subtle skin improvements immediately following treatment, but best result are seen 4 weeks later.
-
The treatment results tend to last 6 to 12 months, but the duration of individual results may vary. Top-up treatments are generally recommended on a 6 monthly basis.
-
No. Injectable Skin Boosters are not tested for safety in pregnancy or breastfeeding. Do not use for 6 months prior to planning pregnancy.
-
Yes. Skin Boosters are designed to improve the quality of the skin, without adding unnecessary volume or contours, so you will leave the clinic looking just like you, only fresher.
-
No. You will, however, continue to age with the benefits of prior treatment. Hyaluronic acid will stimulate your own collagen network and improve texture, hydration, and glow. Over time, like the hyaluronic acid naturally found in your skin, it will be broken down by your body.
