Profhilo

WHAT IS PROFHILO?


Profhilo is an injectable skin remodelling treatment containing one of the highest concentrations of Hyaluronic Acid (HA) on the market, especially formulated for people whose skin lacks volume and elasticity.


Rather than just plumping and filling fine lines and wrinkles, the slow release of HA by Profhilo stimulates the production of collagen and elastin, in turn improving skin tone, hydration and the appearance

of fine lines. The result is improved skin quality lasting for 9-12 months.


PRICE: £300 PER TREATMENT

HOW DOES PROFHILO WORK?

HA is hydrophilic, meaning it draws and holds water from your body, so Profhilo acts as a hydrator rather than a filler. This makes it fantastic for those with tired, dull-looking skin, transforming it into
firm and luminous skin. This effect takes place within 3-5 days of treatment.
Over the next few weeks collagen and elastin production is stimulated, producing a secondary effect of skin tightening.
The levels of collagen, elastin and Hyaluronic Acid in the skin rapidly drop from the age of 30, resulting in signs of ageing such as fine lines, wrinkles and lacklustre skin. Profhilo acts to reverse some
of these changes. The maximum effect of Profhilo is usually seen 2 months after the second treatment.( 8 weeks after the 1st)


WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF PROFHILO?

Treatment with Profhilo improves skin tone, texture, hydration and overall radiance.  It can help to increase firmness and elasticity and promote healthier and softer-looking skin. Profhilo is most often
used for facial areas, but can also be used to rejuvenating the neck, decollete, arms, knees and hands.


WHAT DOES PROFHILO TREATMENT INVOLVE?

Profhilo is injected just below the skin’s surface over 2 sessions 4 weeks apart. After injection it disperses quickly beneath the skin to improve hydration, without any need for massage or risk of leaving lumps or nodules. Profhilo is absorbed within a 2cm radius of its injection site, so to treat the face only 10 injection points are needed in total. 5 on either side.
A single course of Profhilo involves 2 injectable treatments 4 weeks apart, after which you can expect to see an intense hydration. It makes the skin glow, fine lines can disappear and you’ll notice smoother, tighter skin. Courses of two treatments can be repeated every six months as needed to maintain the results.


WHAT ABOUT RECOVERY?

The downtime following a treatment is minimal, and you should be able to return to normal ‘light’ daily activities immediately after your appointment. However, we recommend that you avoid strenuous physical strain and sports on the first day after the treatment, and don’t have a sauna or steamy bath for a few days.  You should also avoid intense sun or UV light exposure for the first few days after



ARE THERE ANY SIDE-EFFECTS?

As with all non-surgical aesthetic treatments there is a risk of side-effects, such as minor bruising or swelling at the injection sites. These do not usually occur and generally subside quickly when they do.
Profhilo is not recommended for women who are pregnant or breastfeeding, or people who are allergic to Hyaluronic Acid.
