Profhilo

Profhilo is a multi-award-winning treatment consisting of one of the highest concentrations of hyaluronic acid on the market. It is injected into the skin across 10 strategic points in a treatment area, such as the face or neck. It is made with their patented NAHYCO technology that stabilises it, enabling the hyaluronic acid to work for longer. It spreads throughout the skin and stimulates skin cell receptors to improve skin laxity and hydration more effectively. The basis of how Profhilo works is that the product has a lower viscosity than other injectable products, enabling it to spread itself evenly throughout the underlying tissues, slowly releasing hyaluronic acid and stimulating four different types of collagen and elastin as it does so. The result is a more radiant, smoother, firmer and lifted complexion. After a course of treatments, the skin tissue is significantly improved, so it is superior to skin boosters on the market as it falls in the category of a skin bio-remodeller.

Profhilo is applied using the Bio Aesthetics Points (BAP) technique. This approach administers a series of 5 injections at specific points on each side of the face, including along the cheekbones, under the eyes and along the jawline. These places are specifically selected to maximise the distribution of Profhilo throughout the face. When treating the neck, the 10 injection points target neck lines and loose, sagging skin, which are common concerns that patients wish to treat. Patients often complain of looking tired due to dull and sagging skin, wrinkles and facial volume loss. Through the use of Profhilo, the skin will become firmer, naturally fuller, smoother and more radiant to create an overall fresher-looking complexion.

It is important not to confuse Profhilo with fillers as they work in very different ways. Fillers help to revolumise areas of the facial tissues under the skin where volume has been lost through the process of ageing, whereas Profhilo helps to optimise the actual skin layer by tightening it over time and reducing the appearance of fine lines which cannot be targeted by filler. Although it does not volumise like a filler, it does plump the skin. Profhilo strengthens the skin’s internal structure and increases tissue density by producing new collagen and elastin. After treatment, clinical data has shown improvements in skin texture, elasticity and hydration with a tightening effect.

A treatment course of Profhilo produces beneficial results for people who are looking to increase collagen, elastin, and hydration in their skin and revitalise their appearance in a minimally invasive way. To achieve the best results, it is recommended that a course of 2 – 3 sessions be carried out (depending on the severity of concerns) approximately 4 weeks apart.
