What Is Profhilo®

Profhilo is an injectable anti-ageing treatment made from hyaluronic acid (HA) designed for treating skin laxity, fine lines and wrinkles as well as providing deep skin hydration. This injectable differs from other injectables by only requiring 5 injection points for each half of the face. It can boost the largest concentration of hyaluronic acid, specially treated so that it can bio-stimulate four types of collagen, elastin and proliferate adipocytes (fat) stem cells to address these anti-ageing issues naturally and effectively and improve skin quality lasting for up to six months.

How Does Profhilo Work?

Profhilo boasts one of the highest concentrations of HA in the market (64mg / 2ml), which allows it to deeply boost the hydration of the skin and reverse ageing and sagging skin especially in the face, neck and hands with little-to-no downtime. HA is hydrophilic which means that it draws and retains water in your body, thereby acting as a natural hydrator for the skin. This treatment is good for patients with tired, dull-looking skin as it can help to transform it into firm and luminous skin within 3-5 days.

Treatment Area(s)

Profhilo is generally safe for use on both the face and body, it is most commonly used to treat areas like:

forehead
eye area
cheeks
chin
neck
arms/hands

What To Expect From The Treatment?

Profhilo usually works to smooth and hydrate the skin from the very first treatment but results are more prominent after the second treatment as this treatment takes time to work. By having 2-3 treatment sessions, it allows the Profhilo to remain in the skin for a longer time, resulting in a longer-lasting response. As it takes time to stimulate new collagen and elastin production to naturally improve the plumpness, firmness and elasticity of the skin. The results will usually last up to six months post treatment and a repeat cycle is recommended once the initial cycle is over. We recommend to consulting our doctor for a detailed assessment to find out if this treatment is suitable for you.

Risks And Side Effects

Although it is a non-surgical aesthetic treatment, there is a potential risk of side-effects, such as bumps at the injection points. However, these usually do not occur and even if they do, it usually subside within 24 hours. Results vary for individuals. No individual result should be seen as typical.
