Skin Hydration

Skin hydration treatment is a non-surgical approach designed to improve the skin’s moisture levels, smoothness, elasticity and overall quality.

Unlike traditional moisturisers, which work mainly on the surface of the skin, injectable skin hydration treatments are placed beneath the skin using precise injection techniques. This allows hydrating and regenerative ingredients, such as hyaluronic acid, amino acids or polynucleotides, to work within the skin itself.

The aim is not to change the structure of the face or add visible volume. Instead, these treatments help to refresh the skin, improve texture and support a healthier-looking complexion over time. Patients who need volume restoration or contouring may be more suitable for dermal fillers, while patients looking for skin quality improvement may benefit more from skin boosters or regenerative injectable treatments.

Skin hydration treatments may be suitable for patients who are concerned with dry skin, dullness, fine lines, crepey skin texture, reduced elasticity, rough texture, enlarged pores, tired-looking skin or seasonal dehydration.

Skin hydration treatments in London and selected clinics

At The Cosmetic Skin Clinic, skin hydration treatment is not a single procedure. We offer a range of injectable and regenerative treatments that can be tailored to your skin type, concerns and desired result.

Your practitioner may recommend one treatment or a combination approach depending on whether your main concern is dryness, dullness, crepiness, loss of elasticity, fine lines, enlarged pores or overall skin quality.

Profhilo for skin hydration and elasticity

Profhilo is an injectable hyaluronic acid treatment designed to improve skin hydration, elasticity and firmness.

It is often recommended for patients with dry, crepey or mildly lax skin who want a fresher, smoother and more hydrated appearance without adding volume. Profhilo spreads beneath the skin to support hydration and skin remodelling, making it suitable for areas such as the face, neck and décolletage.

Polynucleotides for regenerative skin quality

Polynucleotides are injectable regenerative treatments designed to support skin repair, hydration and elasticity.

They work by encouraging the skin’s natural renewal processes, making them well suited to patients with tired-looking skin, crepey texture, fine lines, dullness or reduced skin resilience. Polynucleotides may also be used in delicate areas such as the under-eyes, where the skin can appear thin, tired or dehydrated.

Unlike dermal fillers, polynucleotides are not used to create volume or contour. They focus on improving the quality and behaviour of the skin itself.

Restylane Skinboosters for deep hydration

Restylane Skinboosters are injectable hyaluronic acid treatments designed to improve skin hydration, smoothness and luminosity.

They are particularly suitable for patients whose skin feels dry, rough, finely lined or lacking in glow. Rather than adding structure or volume, Restylane Skinboosters work by delivering hydration within the skin to improve texture and radiance.

They may be used on areas such as the face, neck, décolletage and hands. For patients primarily concerned with hand ageing, our hand rejuvenation page explains the treatment options available for thinning, crepey or dehydrated skin on the hands.

Sunekos for hydration and skin regeneration

Sunekos is an injectable treatment that combines hyaluronic acid with amino acids to support hydration and skin regeneration.

It may be recommended for patients with fine lines, dullness, crepiness or early signs of skin ageing. Sunekos is often used to improve skin quality in delicate areas where a natural-looking result is important.

Ameela for regenerative skin hydration

Ameela is a polynucleotide-based injectable treatment designed to support skin repair, hydration and regeneration.

It may be suitable for patients concerned with tired-looking skin, reduced elasticity, crepey texture, fine lines or poor skin quality. Ameela works gradually, helping to support the skin’s natural repair processes rather than creating visible volume.

Juvéderm Hydrate for smoother, fresher skin

Juvéderm Hydrate is an injectable skin hydration treatment designed to improve moisture levels, smoothness and skin quality.

It may be suitable for patients whose skin appears dry, tired or lacking in radiance. By supporting hydration within the skin, Juvéderm Hydrate can help to improve the appearance of fine lines and create a smoother, fresher-looking complexion.

Juvéderm Volite for skin smoothness and elasticity

Juvéderm Volite is an injectable skin-quality treatment designed to improve hydration, smoothness and elasticity.

It may be suitable for patients with fine lines, dullness, rough texture or loss of skin quality. Unlike volumising fillers, Volite is designed to support the skin itself, helping it appear smoother and more hydrated.

babyGLOW Skin Booster for radiance

babyGLOW Skin Booster is designed to improve radiance, hydration and overall skin luminosity.

It may be suitable for patients who want a fresher, brighter-looking complexion and a subtle glow. Your practitioner will advise whether babyGLOW is suitable for your skin and how it compares with other skin booster or regenerative injectable options.

Who is suitable for skin hydration treatments?

Skin hydration treatments may be suitable for patients who want to improve the quality, texture and hydration of their skin without surgery.

They can be considered for a wide range of skin types and age groups, depending on your concerns and suitability. Some patients choose skin hydration treatments as an early preventative step, while others use them to improve visible signs of ageing, dryness or reduced elasticity.

These treatments can be especially useful before winter, when cold weather, heating and reduced humidity can make the skin feel drier and more sensitive. They may also be recommended after summer, when sun exposure, travel and heat can leave the skin looking dull or dehydrated.

For patients with deeper lines, facial volume loss or contour concerns, your practitioner may discuss whether dermal fillers would be more appropriate. For patients with skin laxity, texture or firmness concerns, treatments such as Morpheus8 may also be considered as part of a wider plan.
