Skin Boosters FAQs

What Is The Profhilo Treatment?

Profhilo is a unique injectable hyaluronic acid treatment that is designed to boost skin hydration, support, tautness, and elasticity. Unlike typical dermal fillers, which are injected deeper, Profhilo is placed superficially. It is a type of injectable described as a “bio-remodeling” agent, which stimulates collagen and elastin production by fibroblasts in the dermis and keratinocytes in the epidermis, as well as by preserving the health and vitality of the fat cells in the subcutaneous tissue. This results in greater skin support, diminished laxity, and improved suppleness that translates into plumper, more dewy, more youthful skin.

At Which Age Should I Get Profhilo?

Clients usually start to get Profhilo when they enter their thirties. It can be used for preservation in this stage, thereafter it can be used to return volume and fullness and improve the skin structure.

How Long Does Profhilo Last?

The treatment protocol with Profhilo is a course of injections a month apart. Profhilo is known for its long-lasting effects compared to some other hyaluronic acid-based treatments. The duration of the results can vary from person to person, and factors such as individual metabolism, lifestyle, and the specific area treated can influence how long the effects last. However, on average, the results of Profhilo can last around 4 to 6 months.

Can I Have Profhilo with anti-wrinkle or filler?

Profhilo, anti-wrinkle, and dermal fillers are all different cosmetic treatments, each serving a distinct purpose. While it’s not uncommon for individuals to undergo multiple treatments in a single session, it’s important to understand the differences and potential considerations for combining these procedures.

1. Profhilo: Profhilo is a type of injectable treatment known as a bio-remodeling or bio-revitalization treatment. It contains hyaluronic acid and is designed to hydrate the skin and stimulate collagen and elastin production. It’s commonly used for overall skin rejuvenation.
2. Antiwrinkle Injections: Anti wrinkle injections are used to temporarily paralyse or relax muscles, reducing the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines, particularly in areas with dynamic muscle movement, such as the forehead and around the eyes.
3. Dermal Fillers: Dermal fillers typically consist of hyaluronic acid or other substances and are used to add volume to specific areas of the face, such as the cheeks, lips, or nasolabial folds.

Combining Profhilo with Antiwrinkle or dermal fillers can be done, and it’s often referred to as a “liquid facelift” when multiple injectable treatments are used together. However, the decision to combine these treatments is discussed at consultation.

Is There Profhilo for Tightening the Neck and other body areas?

Yes, Profhilo can be used to address skin laxity and improve the appearance of the neck. Profhilo is a bio-remodeling treatment that contains hyaluronic acid and is designed to stimulate collagen and elastin production in the skin. It is often used for overall skin rejuvenation and can be beneficial in treating areas with loose or sagging skin, including the neck.

When Profhilo is injected into the skin, it spreads and hydrates the tissues, promoting the production of collagen and elastin fibres. This, in turn, can improve skin elasticity and firmness. The treatment is often chosen by individuals seeking a non-surgical option for tightening and rejuvenating the skin on the neck.
