About Profhilo

Profhilo treatment offers a remarkable solution for enhancing skin tone, texture, and hydration, resulting in an overall radiant appearance. This advanced injectable is designed to improve skin firmness and elasticity, promoting a healthier and softer look. While it is primarily utilized on facial areas, its versatility allows it to rejuvenate other parts of the body, including the neck, décolletage, arms, knees, and hands. By delivering a unique blend of hyaluronic acid, Profhilo deeply hydrates the skin and stimulates collagen production, ensuring a more youthful and revitalized complexion. Whether you're looking to address specific concerns or simply wish to elevate your skin’s natural beauty, Profhilo is an effective option that can help you achieve glowing and rejuvenated skin all over.

How does Profhilo work?

Profhilo is injected into specific points on the face using a technique called Bio Aesthetic Points (BAP). It spreads beneath the skin, working on the different layers of skin and superficial fat compartments, stimulating collagen and elastin production and restoring aged tissues, resulting in improved skin quality, texture, tone and hydration.

Containing one of the highest concentrations of Hyaluronic Acid on the market, the revolutionary ‘beneath the skin' moisturising treatment is made with the patented NAHYCO technology, which makes it possible to deliver these high levels of hyaluronic acid safely and effectively.

How long do Profhilo injection last?

Profhilo is an innovative treatment option designed to enhance your skin’s natural beauty by promoting the production of collagen and elastin, rather than simply filling in wrinkles and lines. This approach results in a more organic, refreshed, and glowing complexion that rejuvenates your appearance. Unlike traditional fillers, which provide immediate volume, Profhilo works over time, encouraging your skin to regain its firmness and elasticity. Patients often notice visible improvements shortly after the treatment, with results typically lasting between six to nine months, making it a sustainable choice for those seeking a revitalized look.

Whats the difference between Profhilo and fillers?

The common factor between the 2 products is Hyaluronic acid however the process of production of each product gives it the unique ability to behave differently when injected into the skin.

The rheology of HA used in dermal filler injectables is thicker and more viscous than the runnier consistency of Profhilo injections. The HA that is found in dermal fillers contains lidocaine -a local anaesthetic agent, unlike Profhilo which is highly concentrated and purified HA without any lidocaine. So whilst hyaluronic acid makes an appearance in both treatments, the rheology of HA used is actually substantially different.

Once dermal fillers are injected into an area on the face, the product stays in the area and integrates into the skin's natural fibres given its crossed linked nature which is why it works so well for targeted areas such as the lips, cheeks. On the other hand, Profhilo injections will disperse the HA underneath the skin, spreading its moisturising magic across the whole face.

Dermal fillers are a game changer for those who want to enhance certain parts of the face such as plumping the lips or shaping the jawline by replacing lost volume. Profhilo doesn’t play a role in volumising or restructuring the face, however. Think of Profhilo as a really really hydrating facial, but rather than layering the products on top of the skin, you are injecting it into the skin. This will give you that lit-from-within glow and be able to give the entire face a glowy complexion, rather than just certain areas. It works as an under skin nourishment for underlying tissues.

So which one should you choose, dermal filler or Profhilo?

When considering cosmetic treatments, it's essential to evaluate your goals to choose the best option for you. Dermal fillers are ideal if you're looking to enhance specific areas like your lips or cheeks, as they provide immediate results. This quick fix can create a plumper and more youthful appearance almost instantly. On the other hand, if your aim is to achieve a comprehensive rejuvenation and an overall boost in skin hydration, Profhilo could be the better choice for you. This treatment, while more gradual in its effects, offers deep hydration and long-lasting skin improvement, resulting in a more natural glow over time. Ultimately, understanding your desired outcome will guide you in selecting the right treatment for your aesthetic goals.

How many sessions of Profhilo do I need?

The recommended treatment regimen for Profhilo injections does vary depending on a patient's skin condition. Commonly, two treatment sessions of Profhilo, spaced four weeks apart, are recommended. This initial treatment period is followed by maintenance top-ups at three to six-month intervals.
