Guide to Skin Boosters in Singapore
Understanding the Options at Om Aesthetics Clinic
Many individuals explore aesthetic treatments when skincare products alone are no longer enough to address concerns such as dryness, dullness, fine lines, or early skin ageing. Skin boosters are commonly chosen for their role in supporting skin hydration, texture, and overall skin quality, with minimal downtime.
At Om Aesthetics Clinic, we offer several types of skin boosters, each formulated differently and suited to different skin concerns. This guide introduces 5 skin boosters available at our clinic to help you better understand how they differ and how a consultation helps determine suitability.
What Is a Skin Booster?
Skin boosters are injectable treatments designed to support skin hydration, elasticity, and dermal quality. Unlike fillers, which focus on volume replacement or contouring, skin boosters are generally used to improve the condition of the skin itself.
Different skin boosters contain different active components, which influence how they work and what concerns they are commonly used for.
1. Elravie Re2O
Overview
Elravie Re2O is an ECM-based skin booster. ECM (extracellular matrix) components form part of the skin’s natural structural framework.
Key Components
It contains human-derived ECM components such as collagen, elastin, and glycosaminoglycans (including hyaluronic acid).
Commonly considered for:
Supporting overall skin structure
Improving skin texture
Enhancing skin resilience
This option may be suitable for individuals seeking a skin booster focused on dermal support and texture refinement.
2. Rejuran
Overview
Rejuran is a polynucleotide (PN) skin booster. Polynucleotides are DNA fragments used in aesthetic medicine to support skin recovery and hydration.
How it is commonly used
PN-based boosters are often considered for improving skin smoothness and supporting overall skin condition.
Commonly considered for:
Dull or tired-looking skin
Uneven texture
Early signs of skin ageing
Rejuran is frequently chosen by individuals looking to support skin quality and radiance over time.
3. Juvelook
Overview
Juvelook is a PDLLA (poly-D,L-lactic acid) skin booster. PDLLA is a biocompatible material used to support gradual collagen stimulation.
How it works
Rather than providing immediate volume, PDLLA-based skin boosters are associated with progressive skin support through collagen activity.
Commonly considered for:
Improving skin firmness over time
Supporting skin elasticity
Texture refinement
Juvelook may be suitable for individuals interested in gradual skin quality improvement.
4. Redensity 1
Overview
Redensity 1 is a skin booster formulated with hyaluronic acid and supportive dermal components.
How it works
Hyaluronic acid attracts and retains water within the skin, helping to support hydration and surface smoothness.
Commonly considered for:
Dehydrated or dry skin
Fine surface lines
Dull skin texture
Redensity 1 is often selected when hydration and skin smoothness are the primary concerns.
5. Profhilo
Overview
Profhilo is a skin booster with a high concentration of hyaluronic acid, designed to spread evenly within the tissue.
How it works
It supports hydration across a broader area rather than targeting specific points, contributing to overall skin quality.
Commonly considered for:
Improving skin hydration
Enhancing skin texture
Supporting a refreshed appearance
Profhilo is commonly chosen for individuals seeking overall skin hydration and radiance.
6. Belotero Revive
Overview
Belotero Revive is a skin booster containing hyaluronic acid combined with glycerol, a humectant that helps attract and retain moisture in the skin.
How it works
The combination of hyaluronic acid and glycerol supports hydration while helping to improve skin smoothness and elasticity.
Commonly considered for:
Improving skin hydration
Supporting skin elasticity
Enhancing skin smoothness and glow
Belotero Revive may be suitable for individuals whose main concern is skin hydration with improved skin feel and softness.

This depends on the type of skin booster and your skin condition. Some treatments are done as a series, while others may be spaced out over time. Your doctor will advise during consultation.
Most people experience minimal downtime. Mild redness, swelling, or small injection marks may occur and usually settle within a few days.

Yes, skin boosters are often combined with other treatments such as lasers or energy-based devices, depending on your skin needs. Your doctor will advise on appropriate treatment spacing.
Many skin boosters are suitable for sensitive skin, but this depends on your skin condition and medical history. A proper consultation is important to assess suitability and reduce risks.
Skin boosters are commonly used on the face, and may also be used on areas such as the neck or under-eye region, depending on the product and indication.
The duration varies based on the type of skin booster, your skin condition, and lifestyle factors. Maintenance treatments may be recommended to sustain results.
There is no one-size-fits-all option. At Om Aesthetics Clinic, the doctor will assess your skin concerns, expectations, and suitability before recommending a personalised treatment plan.
