Nano-sized 0.1% retinal combines with 1% panthenol and 3% Matrixyl 3000 for smoother texture and firmer-looking skin.
Recognise the first changes
Dry texture, early lines, enlarged-looking pores and gradual sagging call for consistent firmness care.
Three-level elasticity care
The formula was tested for skin elasticity at three instrument pressure settings: 200, 300 and 450 mbar.
Smooth, luminous-looking skin
Make targeted evening care part of your routine for skin that looks smooth, firm and luminous.
100% positive responses
All 22 survey participants responded positively to wrinkle, pore and elasticity care, absorption and spreadability. The satisfaction survey ran from 27 May to 13 June 2024; these figures describe user feedback.
Precise texture application
Spread a small amount over areas of concern and allow the yellow formula to absorb.
Every drop, targeted care
The narrow applicator dispenses the concentrated booster in small, controlled amounts.
Nano-sized retinal
The 0.1% retinal is nano-sized and stabilised with liposome technology for targeted elasticity care.
20,250 A-Shot particles
The formula contains 20,250 A-Shot particles made with hydrolysed sponge. A light tingling sensation can occur; reduce the amount or frequency if the skin feels irritated.
Why A-Shot?
A-Shot particles are 16 times thinner than pores, with a uniform micro-sized structure for precise application.
Refined particle technology
Refined A-Shot particles bring a uniform micro-sized structure to the formula. The ingredient manufacturing method is covered by patent No. 10-2270816.
3% Matrixyl 3000
3% Matrixyl 3000 combines the peptides palmitoyl tripeptide-1 and palmitoyl tetrapeptide-7 for elasticity care.
Firmness, lines and pores
Concentrated retinal care addresses the appearance of wrinkles and pores while improving skin elasticity.
Five application tests
Five application tests assessed deep wrinkles, pore appearance, skin lifting, turnover of the keratin layer and elasticity at three instrument settings.
A focused firmness booster
Use the narrow applicator for areas where deep lines, enlarged-looking pores or a loss of firmness are your main concerns.
Who is it for?
Choose this booster for visible deep lines, enlarged-looking pores, uneven texture and skin that has lost its firm feel.
Four routes to smoother skin
The formula targets wrinkles and pore appearance, three-level elasticity, four facial lifting areas and keratin-layer turnover.
Deep-line and pore care
The concentrated retinal formula targets deep forehead and eye-area lines, smile lines and enlarged-looking pores.
Forehead lines after two weeks
Deep forehead wrinkles were reduced by 28.54% after two weeks of use in the application test.
Eye lines and smile lines
After two weeks, the application test measured a 14.31% reduction in deep eye-area wrinkles and an 18.49% reduction in deep smile-line wrinkles.
Pore results after one day
After one day, testing measured a temporary 13.33% reduction in horizontal pores, 7.80% improvement in pore depth and 12.21% improvement in pore density, alongside a 4.33% change in the elasticity measurement within the pore area.
A concentrated daily formula
A drop combines 0.1% nano-sized retinal, 1% panthenol and 3% Matrixyl 3000.
Three-level elasticity
Three instrument settings assessed changes in skin elasticity, giving a closer look at the formula’s firming care.
1% panthenol and elasticity
Panthenol replenishes moisture for a comfortable finish. The three-level elasticity test recorded improvements of 7.21%, 7.38% and 7.54% after two weeks.
Four lifting areas
After two weeks, skin-angle measurements changed by 4.0% around the eyes, 3.32% at the cheeks, 3.21% around the mouth and 2.46% at the jawline.
Lifting satisfaction
After two weeks, all 21 respondents reported a perceived lifting effect around the eyes, mouth, cheeks and jawline.
Seven-day turnover care
The illustrated keratin-layer test compares treated and untreated areas over seven days.
Keratin-layer turnover
The one-week keratin-layer turnover test recorded a 79.63% reduction in its pigmentation marker, measuring the turnover of the skin’s outer keratin layer.
Concentrated retinal care
A compact tube brings together retinal, panthenol and peptides for targeted firmness care.
Nourishing yellow texture
The concentrated yellow texture glides across the skin and absorbs to leave a nourished, bouncy feel.
Apply in the evening
Apply a small amount during your evening routine and spread it thinly over the intended area.
Build up gradually
For the first two weeks, apply a small amount, about 2mm, every other night to targeted areas. From week three, increase to evening use as tolerated. Apply sunscreen the next morning and store cool at 3–10°C.
The tested Vita-A pairing
The following combination-use results come from testing the Retinal Shot Booster together with the Retinol Shot Serum. Start your own Vita-A routine with one treatment and introduce it gradually.
Duo results: lines and pores
After two weeks of paired use, testing measured reductions of 23.24% in eye-area wrinkles and 37.99% in pore volume, with improvements of 14.80% in pore depth, 28.74% in pore area and 21.79% in pore count.
The Vita-A pair: refine pores in two weeks
Use the Retinol Shot Serum and Retinal Shot Booster together for a complete Vita-A routine. Two-week testing evaluated the pair for pore volume, pore depth, pore area and pore count.
Duo lifting result
The paired-use lifting test recorded a 9.02% reduction in the measured facial skin angle after two weeks.
When should I apply it?
Use retinal in the evening and apply sunscreen the next morning.
Can I increase it immediately?
Keep the initial amount and frequency steady for the first two weeks, even if the first application feels comfortable.
How should skin adjust?
Allow a two-week adjustment period. Reduce use if redness, peeling, itching, burning or stinging occurs.
Pregnancy and breastfeeding
Do not use this retinal treatment during pregnancy or breastfeeding.
What should I alternate?
Alternate with high-strength vitamin C, scrubs and exfoliating products instead of layering them in the same routine.
The product development story
The development process examined texture, wrinkle and pore concerns before refining the final retinal formula.
455 days of development
The Booster was developed over approximately 455 days, combining nano-sized retinal with ingredients selected for skin firmness and texture.
How to use
Start in the evening
After cleansing, gently spread a small amount over the areas you want to target. Allow it to absorb.
Build gradually
For the first two weeks, use every other night. Increase to nightly use only once your skin feels comfortable.
Keep the routine simple
Follow with moisturiser. Choose one Vita-A treatment for the evening instead of layering the Booster, Retinol Serum and Dual Cream together.
Finish mornings with sunscreen
Apply sunscreen as the last step of your morning skin care.
Complete your routine
Put every step in the right place
Choose one Vita-A treatment for your evening routine and build up gradually. Complete daytime skin care with sunscreen.

Frequently asked questions
What does this booster target?
Fine lines, visible wrinkles, enlarged-looking pores and uneven texture. Its concentrated format makes it practical for focused evening care.
Does it contain retinal or retinol?
It contains 0.1% retinal. The Vita-A Retinol Shot Tightening Serum is a separate 0.1% retinol product.
How is it different from the Dual Cream?
The Booster contains 0.1% retinal in a targeted 15ml treatment. The 50ml Dual Cream combines 0.05% retinal with a separate soothing formula and 5% panthenol. Pick the format that suits your routine.
How often should I use it?
Begin every other evening for two weeks with a small amount on selected areas. Increase gradually when your skin is comfortable, and reduce frequency if irritation develops.
Should I use all three Vita-A products together?
Choose one Vita-A treatment per evening. The Booster, Retinol Serum and Dual Cream offer different formats; you do not need to layer all three to build a useful routine.
What should I pair it with?
Keep the rest of the evening routine focused on hydration and moisturiser. Use Pore+ Dark Spot Brightening Care Sunscreen the following morning.
What should I do if I feel tingling?
A-Shot™ particles can create a tingling sensation. Patch test first and reduce use if your skin becomes uncomfortable. Stop using it if irritation persists.
