Profhilo
What is Profhilo?
Profhilo is a brand of injectable dermal filler that's gaining popularity in the field of medical aesthetics. It's unique because it's not used to add volume or structure to specific areas like traditional dermal fillers. Instead, Profhilo is classified as a "bio-remodeling" or "skin-boosting" treatment.
As we age, particularly after 30, the amount of collagen, fat and elastin in the skin decreases markedly. The result is a loss of volume, the appearance of fine lines and a general dulling of the skin. Profhilo® is the perfect rejuvenating treatment to combat these signs of skin ageing.
What to expect
Here's what you should know about Profhilo:
Hyaluronic Acid: Profhilo is made from a high concentration of hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring substance in the body that plays a crucial role in maintaining skin hydration and elasticity. Hyaluronic acid attracts and retains moisture, which is essential for healthy, youthful-looking skin.
Bio-Remodeling: Unlike traditional fillers, Profhilo is injected just below the skin's surface in multiple points across the treated area. It spreads and integrates within the skin, rather than creating volume or structure. This stimulates the production of collagen and elastin, proteins that help maintain skin firmness and elasticity.
Skin Benefits: Profhilo is often used to address skin laxity, fine lines, and overall skin quality. It can improve skin texture, hydration, and tone. It's commonly applied to areas like the face, neck, décolletage (upper chest), and hands.
Minimal Downtime: One of the advantages of Profhilo is that it typically involves minimal downtime. Most people can return to their daily activities shortly after treatment.
Treatment Schedule: Profhilo treatments usually consist of two sessions, approximately one month apart. Results become noticeable after the second session and continue to improve over several weeks.
Natural-Looking Results: Profhilo is known for providing natural-looking results. Instead of adding volume, it enhances your skin's health and radiance, making it a great choice for those who want subtle rejuvenation.
Profhilo is an innovative approach to skin rejuvenation, offering a non-surgical option for improving skin quality and addressing signs of ageing. If you're interested in this treatment, book an appointment to discuss your options and expectations.
