Profhilo is a bio-remodelling treatment that should not be confused with dermal fillers. When it is injected beneath the skin, Profhilo slowly spreads like runny honey under the skin providing intense hydration. This helps to rebuild the internal structure and stimulate the production of collagen and elastin, (rather than to add a product that works to artificially add volume.) We always recommend undergoing a course of 2 treatments, given 1 month apart, for maximum results. Maintenance is then 1 session every 3-6 months to maintain results. This treatment works well in combination with other treatments such as anti-wrinkle treatments, volume restoration with filler and other tightening treatments such as Morpheus8 and forma skin tightening. It is also used as part of our tight tum package with Morpheus 8 to smooth the appearance of crepey skin on the stomach.

Taking care of the treated area following treatment will help to achieve a safe and optimal outcome with reduced downtime. We advise that you avoid touching the area for a few hours and avoid using a sauna, steam rooms or facials for at least 1 week. You must also avoid alcohol for 48 hours. Strenuous exercise should be avoided for 24 hours. No makeup over the area treated until the next day helps to minimise the risk of infection but you can gently wash your face the same evening using a gentle cleanser. We recommend avoiding strong topical actives for 5 days, but you can wear SPF 30+ from the next morning. Your detailed aftercare advice will be provided at your appointment.

Unlike fillers, Profhilo triggers natural rejuvenation of the skin so the complexion becomes smoother, brighter and more youthful looking. As levels of collagen and elastin increase, elasticity and hydration are restored for skin that is fuller, firmer and softer. Results can last for around 3 – 6 months and will support the effects of a good skincare routine and other collagen stimulating treatments.
