If you have just had, or are thinking about getting, a skin booster treatment, then you are likely wondering the same thing everyone does: When will I glow? It’s completely natural and understandable to feel excited (and a little impatient) about the glowing, dewy, and radiant skin that the treatment is known for.  

However, the glow comes in different stages & is therefore not that simple to answer. Skin boosters typically show results immediately and then continue to improve over time. So, you can expect that in the days and weeks following the treatment, results will be imminent.  

Within this article, we will walk you through everything you should expect to happen over the first few days and weeks post-treatment. This will include when you can expect to see results, how long these results last, and some skincare tips for post-skin booster treatment.  

What to Expect During… 

The First 24-72 Hours 

The first 24 to 72 hours post-treatment are incredibly important. The care that you take can have a huge impact on the results of the treatment. Because of this, there are several different things that you need to be aware of during this time.  

You can expect to see some visible skin booster treatment results almost immediately. In fact, many clients report a noticeable increase in skin hydration within just 24 hours. However, it is important to note that this can be dependent on the individual and their skin.  

Side Effects  

During the first 24-72 hours, the main worry that most people have is to do with treatment side effects. As this treatment is an invasive injectable, you should not be surprised if you experience any side effects. The main side effects to be aware of are:  

• Redness
• Itchiness 
• Puffiness
• Bumps
• Bruising

If you do experience any of these side effects, do not worry; they are common. Simply take extra care of the area and use an ice pack regularly on the area. In doing this, you should start to see these side effects subside within 72 hours.  

Tips for the First 24-72 Hours 

There are many different aftercare tips to follow in the immediate days following skin booster treatments. Following these tips can help reduce the chances of experiencing side effects and help maximise the results that we see from the treatments. The main tips to keep in mind are;  

• Avoid intense heat and UV  
• Avoid heavy makeup  
• Avoid other treatments in the same area  
• Avoid excessive exercise  

Week 1  

From the 72-hour mark to the end of the first week, you will begin to see some more visible and impressive differences. One of these notable differences you can expect is that any side effects you may have experienced should have started to subside or be gone completely.  

In addition to this, at the one-week mark, most clients report drastic increases in skin hydration levels and the glow of their skin. This is because this 7-day period has allowed the skin booster treatment to begin to work within the dermis of the skin to start providing the incredible benefits that make this treatment so popular.  

Tips for Week 1 

Whilst the treatment has now had a good 7 days to work within the skin, there are still many tips that we recommend that you follow to ensure the best results. These tips are:  

• Avoid excessive UV exposure – In the week and weeks following skin booster treatments, you should avoid any overexposure to UV.  

• Use SPF on skin – Always use SPF after these treatments to ensure that your skin is protected from the general UV that we are exposed to during day-to-day tasks. 

• Avoid other treatments in the same area – To minimise the risk of complications, avoid any treatments in the same area for a prolonged period.  

• Light makeup – After 72 hours, you can wear makeup, however, you should make sure that it is only a light layer to ensure the treatment area can heal. 

• Stay hydrated – Staying hydrated will allow your skin in the treatment area to heal more effectively by helping pass nutrients through the blood to the treatment areas.  

How Long Do Skin Boosters Take to Work?  

Unfortunately, there is no exact answer as to how long skin booster treatments take to work. This is because everyone can react differently to the treatment. So, the timeframe can be completely different, as one individual may need more treatments than another to see the full results.   

The recommended number of treatments needed to see full results is 2-3 sessions spaced 2-3 weeks apart. Therefore, to see the full results of skin booster treatments, it can take anywhere between 4 and 9 weeks. Once again, this is very much dependent on the individual.  

However, as we have already touched on, clients are able to see visible differences from the skin booster treatments almost immediately. The recommended treatment timeline is only to ensure that results are maximised.  

General Post-Treatment Skin Care Tips  

Gentle Skin Cleansing – When cleansing your skin, it is important to use a non-irritating facial wash. This is because using harsh cleansers can increase the chances of skin booster side effects.  

Daily Moisturising – To prevent dry skin after the treatment, you should moisturise with a sensitive and hypoallergenic moisturiser. To avoid irritation, ensure that your moisturiser is fragrance-free and formulated for sensitive skin.  

Avoid Harsh Products – Avoid any products which may feature harsh chemicals that could irritate the treatment area. In doing this, you are ensuring that the treatment area can heal without any potential irritants entering.  

Apply SPF Daily – Ensure that you regularly apply SPF of at least 30 in the immediate weeks after the treatment. It is recommended to do this even when spending most of the day indoors or in shaded spaces.
