Product Information

It is recommended that after completing the initial two treatments, that you repeat the treatment every six months and the results will usually last this long,' says Dr Taktouk. 'Some patients notice their skin starting to become duller towards the six month point and others love the treatment so much that they come in sooner than six months and that is also fine.' Who should and shouldn't get Profhilo? No, post-injection massages are not necessary to spread the treatment throughout the facial tissue since this occurs naturally through facial and muscle movements. For many, Profhilo offers a less scary youth boost than dermal fillers or Botox. “Profhilo is more natural, and that’s what many of my patients are steering towards, and with it, you may actually realize you do not need as many traditional fillers,” says Dr. Preema.But it doesn’t have to be either/or as Profhilo can be used in tandem with other aesthetic treatments. In fact, combining Profhilo with Botox or filler treatments may mean those other injectable results last longer. How long does Profhilo take to work? Dermal fillers are far more dramatic in what they achieve since they can drastically change and remodel a facial profile. Comparatively, Profhilo improves the look of skin. General questions about the procedure - It might be worth asking things like: Will it hurt? Do you use numbing cream? How long will it take in total? Should I do anything to prepare?

If you haven’t had Profhilo before and you’re wondering what you can and can’t do post-treatment, let’s take a look at some common questions we get asked with regards to this procedure. Can I Lie Down After Profhilo? To rejuvenate the skin by improving hydration levels, texture and overall radiance. It also promotes a firmer, plumper complexion by boosting elastin and collagen production. "Anyone who has noticed signs of ageing from skin laxity and fine lines will benefit from this treatment," says Dr Hamilton. Does Profhilo really work? The anti-oxidant effects of the cream will nourish the skin while working as a screen for free radicals. All-the-while protecting the skin from oxidative stress factors, like pollution, smoking and poor diet.Profhilo skin treatments are most commonly undertaken by men and women over the age of 30 suffering from saggy skin, wrinkles, and dehydrated, dull or sunken skin. This typically happens when the hyaluronic acid, collagen and elastin that our bodies produce when we are younger begins to disappear as we age, leaving aging skin looking tired, saggy and creased. Many adults feel self-conscious about these changes, especially when they are premature, and seek cosmetic procedures, like Profhilo skin injections. In our clinic, we consult with our patients first to ensure that they are suitable for the treatment. We discuss the potential side effects of Profhilo alongside the specific benefits that that particular patient might expect to see. We often supplement our discussions with written information and offer our patients a follow up appointment for the treatment itself. For new patients we encourage this "cool off period" so that they can really consider their treatment options.'

Profhilo is an injectable treatment that contains one of the highest concentrations of hyaluronic acid available in a skincare treatment. It is an anti-ageing, skin-boosting treatment that promotes your skin’s natural production of collagen and elastin, and in short, it makes you glow. Profhilo works to vamp up - Although Profhilo treatments can instantly rejuvenate and hydrate skin, it typically takes 4 to 6 weeks to work properly since the treatment injected requires some time to spread and trigger collagen and elastic production within your body. Since everybody is different, the time can vary between a month to two months. Although numbing cream can be used, many clinics prefer not to (it can make the appearance of bruising worse) which means ten injections to the face is going to smart a little.It's worth noting that Profhilo will not add volume or change facial structure as fillers do. The way the hyaluronic acid chains are formulated means that Profhilo spreads like a gel and becomes integrated into the skin. Who should have this treatment? No, Profhilo is not a dermal filler. Dermal fillers are used to plump lost volume in the face, but Profhilo is far less dramatic and seeks to rejuvenate skin and encourage the production of greater elastin and collagen, not reshape facial features. Since Profhilo skin treatments are relatively new to the market, it is vital that you select a reputable and experienced practitioner to provide the treatment. Profhilo treatments effectively stimulate the reproduction and replenishment of new collagen in the skin by slowly releasing hyaluronic acid - a natural substance produced by your body which is critical for skin hydration and nutrition. Unlike other treatments, Profhilo doesn’t mask the imperfections, but instead gets to the core of remedying them by actively stimulating and encouraging your body to produce collagen and elastin. It is not unusual for you to experience some extent of swelling and bruising over the few days that follow the treatment. This is because of the body’s natural response to the needle and injection, as with any clinical or non-clinical injections or harm to skin. In the event of brushing, it is advised to stay away from harsh sun for a few days.

Dermal fillers are very popular amongst the younger generations, meanwhile Profhilo is specifically designed to combat aging so attracts the older generations. On the day of treatment, the patient is welcomed to the clinic and a consent form is signed. Photographs of the area of treatment are taken and added to the patient’s medical records before they are brought into the treatment room. Once comfortable, we examine the area of treatment making note of any visible blood vessels, areas of unhealthy skin or moles or lesions that we need to avoid. We then clean the skin with an anti-microbial solution.' 3. The Injections Generally speaking, the results of Profhilo treatments can last up to roughly 6 months, however, this may vary by patient - particularly depending on skin type and age. The Profhilo treatment can work independently as a treatment on its own or in combination with other cosmetic treatments, namely because it is a natural product that is being injected.

The two can’t really be compared. Profhilo isn’t administered to the forehead, for a start (the area Botox is most commonly used to treat). The effects of Profhilo feel more subtle compared to Botox or even fillers, as the treatment is designed to give the complexion an overall boost rather than to "remodel" the face. In my opinion, it's ideal for those with the budget to give anti-ageing injectables a go, but who don't quite feel ready for Botox or fillers. Profhilo uses a hybrid of high-molecular-weight hyaluronic acid and low-molecular-weight hyaluronic acid," explains aesthetician Dr Lauren Hamilton. This basically allows slow release into the top layer of the skin (epidermis) to hydrate, while stimulating the production of plumping elastin and collagen, which creates a volumising and lifting effect in the lower layer (dermis), and in turn, tightens the skin.
