How the Profhilo treatment works
Profhilo is a non-surgical injectable treatment that tightens, moisturises and strengthens the skin when it is injected across strategic points. Once the high strength hyaluronic acid has been injected into the skin, it will gradually disperse and migrate from the injection site, providing structural support and hydration across a wider area. Once settled, the advanced formulation kickstarts a skin remodelling process by rebooting the body’s ability to generate elastin and collagen proteins. The treatment is divided into 2 injectable treatment sessions that enhance the area being treated. Following these treatment improvement in skin texture and tightness around 1 month after the final session, as collagen and elastin stores are revitalised.

Which areas can be treated using Profhilo?
Ideal for treating areas that have sufficient volume but still require hydrating, tightening and smoothing. These include the face, neck, arms, hands, décolletage and knees.
How quickly will I see the results?
Following your initial treatment, you should notice an immediate improvement in the texture and tightness of your skin within a month. To maintain the effect, most patients require maintenance treatments twice a year.
How many treatments will I need?
The treatment is divided into two to three treatment sessions, 4-6 weeks apart with maintenance treatments as required, but approximately twice a year.
Is the treatment painful?
The product distributes itself evenly under the skin. Due to the high concentration of hyaluronic acid, only a few strategic injection points are needed on each side of the face, making the treatment more comfortable for patients, whilst maximizing the uplifting effect.
Is there any downtime?
No. You may experience some slight swelling or bruising at the site of the injections but these should be minor and can be easily covered with mineral make-up.
