Baby Glow, Skin Booster, or Polynucleotides: Which Does Your Skin Need?

Baby Glow, Skin Booster, or Polynucleotides: Which to Choose for Your Skin?

The choice between Baby Glow, Skin Booster, and Polynucleotides is a frequent question in aesthetic medicine. Each option offers distinct benefits, adapting to different skin improvement goals. Our medical team at Santé Clínica Estética will guide you to select the most suitable treatment.

These injectable treatments share the goal of improving skin quality but achieve it through different mechanisms. Understanding their particularities is key to making an informed decision and obtaining the desired results.

What is Baby Glow and who is it for?

The Baby Glow treatment, available at Santé Clínica Estética, is a facial mesotherapy that combines vitamins, minerals, non-crosslinked hyaluronic acid, and other essential nutrients. Its main objective is to provide intense hydration and a luminous appearance to the skin. It is ideal for those looking to revitalize dull or dehydrated skin.

This procedure is particularly beneficial for young patients or those who desire a "porcelain skin" effect without added volume. It focuses on improving texture, tone, and radiance, offering a fresh and healthy appearance. Individual results may vary, but generally, more radiant and even skin is observed.

Skin Boosters: deep hydration and improved elasticity

Skin Boosters are treatments based on non-crosslinked hyaluronic acid, designed to hydrate the skin from within. Unlike dermal fillers, they do not aim to add volume but rather to improve skin quality. They promote elasticity and firmness, smoothing fine lines and providing a healthy glow.

They are an excellent option for skin with signs of dehydration, lack of elasticity, or the first expression lines. They can be applied to the face, neck, décolletage, and hands. Results are seen progressively, with smoother and more luminous skin after several sessions, according to the initial medical evaluation.

Polynucleotides: regeneration and collagen stimulation

Polynucleotides are biological compounds derived from DNA that stimulate cell regeneration and the production of collagen and elastin. They act at a cellular level, improving the structure and quality of the skin in the long term. This treatment is an advanced option for biorevitalization.

They are suitable for mature skin, with laxity, wrinkles, or sun damage, as well as for preventing aging. They can be applied to the face, eye contour, neck, and décolletage. Facial polynucleotides are priced at 400€ per session, with a pack of 3 sessions available for 1,000€. Results vary individually, but usually include firmer, more elastic, and rejuvenated skin.
