What is Type I Collagen Skinbooster?
The HTIC Collagen Skinbooster is an injectable biostimulation treatment that uses highly purified Type I collagen (HTIC) to kickstart your skin’s natural regeneration. Unlike hyaluronic acid (HA) skinboosters that focus on hydration, this treatment directly replenishes the skin’s collagen network, improving skin density and firmness, elasticity and structure and overall skin quality and resilience
HTIC Collagen Skinbooster is designed to reverse early signs of ageing, restore skin health from within, and provide long-lasting improvements rather than just temporary plumping.
How Does HTIC Collagen Skinbooster Work?
HTIC Collagen Skinbooster primarily works to increase our skin’s natural collagen production via two ways:
- Collagen Replenishment – Heterologous Type I collagen is introduced into the dermis to immediately support the skin’s structure.
- Biostimulation – It stimulates your body’s fibroblasts to produce new collagen over time, reinforcing your skin’s natural matrix.
This dual action not only improves firmness but also supports long-term rejuvenation
Benefits of HTIC Collagen Skinbooster
- Skin Tightening & Firmness – Improves laxity by rebuilding collagen fibres.
- Improved Elasticity – Restores bounce and suppleness to ageing skin.
- Refined Skin Texture – Smooths roughness and minimises fine lines and minimise pores
- Restoration of Skin Quality – Strengthens thinning or damaged skin and reduces dullness, and can also give the skin a healthier glow.
- Natural-Looking Results – No overfilling or artificial look.
- Hydrates skin – While HTIC Collagen Skinbooster does not contain HA, it can improve skin moisture retention indirectly by restoring the skin’s collagen matrix.
- Scar and Mark Improvement – Helps improve the appearance of atrophic acne scars, stretch marks on the body, and surgical scars such as post-C-section marks.
Who is HTIC Collagen Skinbooster Best For?
The HTIC Collagen Skinbooster is ideal if you:
- Notice skin sagging, thinning, or loss of elasticity
- Want a natural alternative to fillers and HA skinboosters
- Have crepey skin on the face, neck, décolletage, or hands
- Prefer gradual, long-lasting improvements
- Are in your 30s to 60s, where collagen loss is most evident. With that said, this treatment is suitable for those as young as 25 years old as a preventative measure, especially in delicate zones (eyes, mouth) and scars/stretch marks.
- Want an all-in-one solution that can overcome most skin concerns associated with ageing
This versatile treatment can be performed on various parts of the body; beyond rejuvenating the face it can also restore firmness of the neck, smooth out wrinkly hands, refresh the décolletage, and even help improve the appearance of scars or stretch marks. It has also been shown to help with vulvar lichen sclerosus, though more confirming studies need to be done.
Is HTIC Collagen Skinbooster Safe?
HTIC is MOH-registered and CE-certified. Its highly purified, non-allergenic formulation has been used safely since 2015, with no reported allergic reactions.

FAQ
How is HTIC Collagen Skinbooster different from HA Skinboosters?
HTIC Collagen Skinbooster – Improves skin quality by stimulating natural collagen production, improving skin elasticity, firmness, and hydration. It is a more comprehensive option that combines anti-ageing effects with moisture replenishment. Results also tend to last longer because of the collagen regeneration process.
HA Skinboosters – Primarily improves skin hydration by replenishing moisture levels in the skin. This helps restore brightness and a healthy glow, and can be especially useful for those with dry or eczema-prone skin. Results are usually visible quickly but are shorter-lived compared to collagen-stimulating options.
Is this treatment uncomfortable?
The HTIC Collagen Skinbooster is delivered through a series of fine intradermal injections. While this may sound uncomfortable, we offer several pain-management options –including numbing cream and other methods– to make the procedure as comfortable as possible. Most patients find the treatment very tolerable, with only mild and temporary sensations during the process.
Is there downtime?
Downtime is minimal and you can resume your normal activities after.
Who is this procedure suitable for?
This procedure is ideal if you’re seeking a non-invasive, natural way to stimulate your body’s collagen for firmer, younger-looking skin. It’s also a time-efficient option, especially if you prefer longer-lasting results without the need for frequent treatments.
It is however not suitable if you fall in the following categories:
- Known hypersensitivity to collagen
- Pregnant and/or breastfeeding
Are there any side effects?
Side effects are mild and transient and include redness, swelling and bruising at the injection site – these should resolve in a few days. Rare but more serious side effects include bumps under the skin and allergic reactions. Please let our doctor know if you have any known allergies to collagen.
Is HTIC Collagen Skinbooster the same as fillers?
No. Fillers add volume, while the Type I Collagen Skinbooster rebuilds your skin’s natural collagen network for structural rejuvenation.
How many sessions do I need?
Visible textural improvements can be seen after just one session, but for optimal results, we recommend completing four sessions.
What’s the difference between collagen skinboosters and collagen supplements, collagen powders?
Collagen skinboosters deliver collagen directly into the skin. This allows for targeted stimulation of your body’s own collagen production, improving firmness, elasticity, and overall skin quality in specific areas such as the face, neck, décolletage, and hands. The results are visible, longer-lasting, and concentrated in the treated areas.
Collagen supplements, on the other hand, are taken orally in the form of powders, capsules, or drinks. They are digested and broken down into amino acids, which may or may not directly translate into new collagen in the skin. While supplements can support overall health and may have subtle benefits for skin, hair, nails, and joints, their effects on skin elasticity and firmness are generally less predictable and require consistent long-term use.
In short, collagen skinboosters offer a direct, targeted, and visible way to improve your skin, whereas collagen supplements provide general wellness support with more gradual and variable results.
Can I combine HTIC Collagen Skinbooster with other treatments?
Yes you can, HTIC Collagen Skinbooster works synergistically with other treatments like lasers for optimum results. However, we recommend not doing them in the same session. To ensure optimal safety, avoid layering HTIC with laser treatments, deep chemical peels, or dermabrasion within the same session. The best way to determine what works for your skin is through a doctor’s consultation, where you’ll receive a tailored care plan for your needs.
What should I take note of post-treatment?
After your treatment, ensure adequate sun protection and avoid working out and going for a facial massage on the same day. Our clinic staff will provide you with a guide on aftercare instructions to maximise results.
Can I request before and after photos of HTIC Collagen Skinboosters?
We adhere to MOH guidelines regarding before-and-after imagery; such visuals are available for your review during consultations, with full patient consent and privacy.
