Skin Booster Treatment in Johor Bahru
Skin Booster Treatment
Skin booster treatment at Dr Plus Aesthetic Clinic in Iskandar Puteri, Johor Bahru is an injectable skin rejuvenation therapy that delivers hydrating and collagen-stimulating substances — primarily hyaluronic acid (HA) or polynucleotides (PN) — directly into the dermis.
Unlike dermal fillers, skin boosters do not add volume or reshape facial features. Instead, they improve skin quality from within: restoring deep hydration, stimulating collagen and elastin production, refining pores, and creating a natural, luminous glow.
Results are progressive, last 6–12 months, and require minimal downtime. All skin booster treatments at Dr Plus are administered personally by Dr Kenneth Lee.
What Is a Skin Booster?
Skin boosters are injectable treatments that deliver hydrating or bio-stimulating agents directly into the dermis — the deeper skin layer where collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid (HA) naturally reside. The most common active ingredients are:
✅ Hyaluronic Acid (HA)
The most widely used skin booster ingredient. HA is a naturally occurring molecule that can hold up to 1,000 times its weight in water. When injected into the dermis, it creates an internal moisture reservoir, keeping skin plump, hydrated, and luminous for months.
✅ Polynucleotides (PN)
Derived from salmon DNA, PN-based boosters (such as Rejuran) focus on skin repair and regeneration. They stimulate fibroblast activity, improve skin elasticity, repair damaged skin cells, and are particularly effective for acne scars and sensitive or reactive skin.
Unlike topical skincare, which works only on the skin’s surface, skin boosters are micro-injected directly into the dermis. This ensures that active ingredients reach exactly where they are needed — bypassing the skin barrier entirely for dramatically better efficacy. Available at Dr Plus Aesthetic Clinic, Iskandar Puteri, Johor Bahru, administered by Dr Kenneth Lee.
What Skin Conditions Does Skin Booster Treat?
Skin booster treatment at Dr Plus Clinic, Johor Bahru is effective for the following skin concerns:
Skin Concern | How Skin Booster Helps |
|---|---|
Dehydrated, Dull Skin | HA deeply hydrates the dermis from within, restoring a natural glow and plumpness that topical moisturisers cannot achieve. |
Fine Lines & Surface Wrinkles | Hydration plumps up fine lines from below, while collagen stimulation improves skin firmness over time. |
Uneven Skin Texture | PN-based boosters repair and regenerate skin cells, improving surface texture, smoothing roughness, and refining pore appearance. |
Acne Scars (Shallow) | PN stimulates tissue repair and collagen remodelling around shallow acne scarring, gradually improving skin surface evenness. |
Loss of Radiance | Regular skin booster sessions restore the inner glow associated with well-hydrated, healthy dermis. |
Sensitive / Reactive Skin | PN-based boosters (Rejuran) have anti-inflammatory properties and help strengthen the skin barrier, making them ideal for reactive or rosacea-prone skin. |
Neck & Décolletage Ageing | Skin boosters can be applied to the neck, décolletage, and hands — not just the face — to improve hydration and skin quality in these often-neglected areas. |

How Is the Skin Booster Procedure Performed?
The skin booster procedure at Dr Plus Aesthetic Clinic, Johor Bahru follows these steps:
- Step 1 — Consultation:
Dr Kenneth Lee assesses your skin condition, hydration levels, and treatment goals. The most appropriate booster type, treatment area, and number of sessions are determined. - Step 2 — Skin Preparation:
The treatment area is cleansed. Topical numbing cream is applied and left for 20–30 minutes to minimise discomfort during injection. - Step 3 — Injection:
sing a fine needle or a medical injector device, tiny amounts of the skin booster are injected into the dermis in a grid or point pattern across the treatment area. Face, neck, décolletage, and hands can all be treated. The procedure takes 20–45 minutes. - Step 4 — Post-Treatment:
A soothing mask or cold compress is applied to calm the skin. Mild redness, swelling, or small injection bumps may appear for 24–48 hours. Patients return to normal activities the same day or next day. - Step 5 — Progressive Results:
Results improve progressively over 2–4 weeks as HA hydrates the dermis and collagen production builds. Full effects are visible by 4–6 weeks after the first session.

Frequently Asked Questions — Skin Booster Johor Bahru
Q1. What is a skin booster treatment?
A skin booster is an injectable treatment that delivers hydrating or bio-stimulating substances — primarily hyaluronic acid (HA) or polynucleotides (PN) — directly into the dermis to improve skin quality from within. Unlike dermal fillers, skin boosters do not add volume. They improve hydration, radiance, texture, and stimulate collagen production. Available at Dr Plus Aesthetic Clinic, Iskandar Puteri, Johor Bahru, administered by Dr Kenneth Lee.
Q2. What is the difference between a skin booster and a dermal filler?
Dermal fillers add volume to specific areas (e.g. lips, cheeks) and stay localised at the injection site. Skin boosters focus on overall skin quality — they hydrate and stimulate collagen across a wide area without adding volume or reshaping facial features.
Q3. What is the difference between skin booster and Profhilo?
Both use hyaluronic acid but work differently. Standard skin boosters hydrate locally at the injection site. Profhilo uses a higher HA concentration (64mg/2ml) that spreads bio-dynamically through the skin to stimulate collagen types I, III, IV and VII — bio-remodelling as well as hydrating, producing lifting effects that standard skin boosters do not achieve.
Q4. What is the difference between skin booster and Rejuran?
Skin boosters (HA-based) primarily deliver hydration for a plumping, dewy effect. Rejuran uses polynucleotides (PN) from salmon DNA to repair damaged skin cells and stimulate fibroblasts — better for acne scars, sensitive skin, and skin repair. Dr Kenneth Lee can recommend the most suitable option during consultation at Dr Plus Clinic JB.
Q5. How many skin booster sessions do I need in Johor Bahru?
The recommended initial course at Dr Plus Aesthetic Clinic is 2–3 sessions spaced 2–4 weeks apart. Maintenance sessions every 3–6 months sustain results. Individual needs vary based on skin condition and goals.
Q6. How long do skin booster results last?
Results typically last 6–12 months after completing the initial course. PN-based boosters (Rejuran) may require more frequent maintenance (every 3–6 months). Results depend on individual skin condition, age, and lifestyle.
Q7. Is skin booster treatment painful?
Topical numbing cream is applied 20–30 minutes before treatment. Most patients describe mild pressure or a light stinging sensation at injection points. The procedure is generally well-tolerated. Dr Kenneth Lee ensures patient comfort throughout.
Q8. Is there downtime after skin booster treatment?
Minimal downtime. Mild redness, small injection bumps, or minor swelling may occur for 24–48 hours. Most patients return to work and daily activities the same day. Avoid strenuous exercise, sun exposure, and makeup for 24 hours post-treatment.
Q9. Can skin booster be combined with other treatments?
Yes. Skin boosters pair effectively with laser treatments, Collagen Plus®, Profhilo, thread lifts, and PRP therapy. Combining treatments provides synergistic results. Dr Kenneth Lee will advise the most effective combination during consultation at Dr Plus Clinic, Johor Bahru.
