Skin Boosters vs Dermal Fillers vs Hydrafacial: Which Is Right for You?

Glowing, youthful skin is one of the most common requests at The Éterne Clinic, Powai. But with so many treatment options available — skin boosters, dermal fillers, and Hydrafacial — patients often ask: “Which one do I really need?”

Here’s a breakdown to help you understand the differences, benefits, and how to choose the right treatment.

What Are Skin Boosters?

Skin boosters are micro-injections of hyaluronic acid that deeply hydrate and improve skin quality.

• Work on skin texture, hydration, and glow
• Do not change facial shape
• Ideal for dull, dehydrated, or tired-looking skin

👉 Think of them as injectable moisturisers that work from within.

What Are Dermal Fillers?

Dermal fillers are also made of hyaluronic acid (or collagen-stimulating substances) but serve a different purpose:

• Restore volume in cheeks, lips, under-eyes
• Sculpt and contour the face (jawline, chin, nose)
• Reduce deep wrinkles or folds

👉 Fillers are for reshaping and restoring structure, not just hydration.

What Is a Hydrafacial?

Hydrafacial is a non-invasive facial treatment that:

• Cleanses and exfoliates
• Extracts impurities
• Infuses skin with serums, peptides, and hydration

👉 It’s like a deep cleansing + instant glow facial, perfect before events.

Comparison Table

Who Should Choose What?

• Choose Skin Boosters if… Your skin feels dry, dull, or lacks elasticity despite good skincare.
• Choose Dermal Fillers if… You’ve noticed volume loss, sagging, or want sharper facial features.
• Choose Hydrafacial if… You need a quick skin refresh before a wedding, party, or important event.

Why Patients at The Éterne Clinic Love Combination Protocols

Dr. Ajara Sayyad explains:
“These treatments aren’t always about choosing one over the other. Often, the best results come from combining them. For example, a Hydrafacial for cleansing, followed by skin boosters for glow, and fillers for volume. This layered approach gives the most natural, youthful results.”

Final Word

Skin boosters, fillers, and Hydrafacial all play different roles in skin health.

• Hydrafacial is for cleansing and instant glow.
• Skin boosters are for hydration and radiance.
• Fillers are for structure and contour.
