Profhilo
Profhilo® is an injectable anti-ageing treatment made from hyaluronic acid to boost skin that is losing elasticity and firmness with age. It is injected just below the surface of the skin where it disperses quickly and reacts with the tissue to instantly boost hydration.
Profhilo® boosts elastin and collagen to effectively remodel the skin to give it a plumper, smoother and firmer appearance.

Results
Immediately following the treatment there is a noticeable improvement in skin tone, hydration as well as firmness, and lines are minimised. Over the next four weeks the Profhilo® boosts elastin and collagen production, giving it a plumper, smoother and firmer appearance. For optimum results Profhilo® requires two treatments, one month apart. Results last for 6 - 9 months.
INJECTion Process
Treatment
Treatment is gently placed through a fine sterile needle into the area being treated
When treating the face, five small injection points are used each side of the face
Treatment can cause mild discomfort for a few seconds
Some beneficial effects can be seen within 48 hours, but with increased improvement over the next month
A second treatment is advised after 1 month for optimal results, and then one maintenance session every 6-12 months
Treatment can be completed within as little as 30 minutes
Post-treatment
While injectables are minimally invasive and can be done in minutes, there are important things to keep in mind post-appointment. Profhilo injections are a true lunchtime procedure: There's almost nothing you need to do beforehand, and only a few restrictions after.
NOTE If you are on blood thinner or anti-inflammatory medications, or have an active skin infection please contact us before treatment as we may need to alter or delay your aesthetic treatment.
