Skin Boosters for Neck

Skinboosters for the neck

Skin boosters are related to dermal fillers in terms of what they are made of XXX, the difference with skin boosters compared with dermal fillers is that they are not structural, ie they only improve the skin, rather than improve the supporting structures. The neck skin is more difficult to treat than the face skin with laser, because the laser procedure is more risky, so injectable treatments are a great alternative.
