Profhilo
The award-winning skin booster
What is the Profhilo injections treatment?
Profhilo is a type of injectable skin treatment that is used to improve skin hydration, firmness, and overall quality. It is composed of a stabilised form of hyaluronic acid (HA), a naturally occurring substance in the body that helps maintain skin hydration and elasticity.
Unlike traditional dermal fillers, which are designed to add volume to specific areas of the face, Profhilo works by stimulating the body's own collagen and elastin production, resulting in overall skin rejuvenation. It is typically injected into multiple points in the face or other areas of concern using a fine needle.
What are the benefits of the Profhilo treatment?
- Bio-remodeling: Profhilo contains a high concentration of HA, which acts as a bio-remodeling agent, hydrating the skin from within and improving its elasticity and firmness.
- Long-lasting hydration: The unique formulation of Profhilo allows it to gradually release HA into the skin over several weeks, providing long-lasting hydration and improving skin quality over time.
- Minimal downtime: Profhilo injections are minimally invasive and typically require no downtime, allowing patients to resume their normal activities immediately after treatment.
- Natural-looking results: Profhilo enhances the skin's natural hydration and elasticity, resulting in a refreshed and rejuvenated appearance without the need for volumising or sculpting.
- Versatility: Profhilo can be used to treat various areas of the face and body, including the cheeks, neck, décolletage, and hands, making it suitable for addressing multiple skin concerns.

As with any injectable treatment, it's essential to consult with a qualified healthcare professional to determine if Profhilo is suitable for your skin type and concerns. They can assess your individual needs and provide personalised treatment recommendations to help you achieve your skincare goals.
