What is a Water Shine injection?

Water Shine is a hyaluronic-acid-based skin booster delivered as tiny micro-droplets into the superficial layers of the skin. It aims to:

  • Boost moisture levels and moisture retention
  • Improve texture, softness and pore appearance
  • Create a radiant, dewy finish
  • Soften fine dehydration lines

The booster formula can be adjusted for hydration, radiance, pores or elasticity.

Who is a good candidate?

  • Dehydrated, dull or tired-looking skin
  • Rough texture or enlarged pores
  • Early signs of ageing
  • Dryness after travel
  • First-time skin booster patients wanting a natural glow without aggressive lasers
