Profhilo
Profhilo is a unique injectable hyaluronic acid treatment, designed to boost skin hydration, support, tautness and elasticity.
This clear, aqueous substance is a mix of high and low molecular weight, pure hyaluronic acid (HA), without the cross-linking chemicals found in hyaluronic acid-based dermal fillers.
Profhilo isn’t a dermal filler treatment per se, or even a simple skin booster; it’s a type of injectable described as a bio-remodelling agent.
It is injected just below the surface of the skin where it disperses quickly and reacts with the tissue to instantly boost hydration.
It can be applied to the face, neck and décolletage.
Immediately following the treatment there will be a noticeable improvement in skin tone, hydration as well as firmness, and lines are minimised.
Over the next four weeks, the Profhilo treatment works to boost elastin and collagen production, effectively remodelling the skin and giving it a plumper, smoother and firmer appearance.
Commonly asked questions
Does it hurt?
Some patients experience discomfort in some areas treated – usually a stinging sensation.
How many treatments are needed?
For optimum results, Profhilo requires two sessions initially, 4 weeks apart followed
by maintenance treatments every 6 months in general.
How long does it last?
Profhilo hydrates skin and creates a healthy glow almost immediately. The full effects of new collagen and elastin develop about four to six weeks after the first treatment. You may see increased hydration for about three months, and a subtle improvement in firmness due to new collagen and elastin for up to six months after your initial treatment series.
