What Is Profhilo?
Profhilo is a “bio-remodelling” treatment containing a high concentration of pure hyaluronic acid, designed to improve skin quality. Rather than adding volume, it aims to increase skin hydration, elasticity and firmness.
It helps the skin on the face, neck, décolleté and backs of the hands look more radiant and plump.
How Does Profhilo Work?
The hyaluronic acid in Profhilo spreads slowly under the skin and hydrates it deeply. At the same time, it stimulates collagen and elastin production, strengthening the skin’s support structure.
The product combines low- and high-molecular-weight hyaluronic acid with a special technology and contains no chemical cross-linking agents.
Who Is Profhilo Suitable For?
It suits people with early signs of aging such as laxity, dullness, thinning and loss of hydration, those with fine lines and those who want natural rejuvenation. It is usually chosen after the age of 30.
It is not used during pregnancy, breastfeeding, with active infection at the treatment site or in case of allergy to hyaluronic acid.
How Is Profhilo Administered?
Small amounts are injected with very fine needles at five set points on each side of the face (BAP technique). The procedure takes about 10–15 minutes.
The standard protocol is two sessions one month apart. The product forms small bumps at the injection points, which spread and disappear within a few hours.
When Are Profhilo Results Seen and How Long Do They Last?
In the first weeks the skin looks more hydrated and glowing. Firming due to collagen production usually becomes noticeable 4–8 weeks after the second session.
The effect lasts about 6 months on average. A single maintenance session every 6 months is usually recommended.
Profhilo vs. Dermal Fillers: What Is the Difference?
Fillers add volume to specific areas and fill lines; they can change facial contours. Profhilo does not add volume or change facial contours; it improves overall skin quality, hydration and firmness.
The two treatments can be combined to complement each other according to the doctor’s plan.
Aftercare Following Profhilo
For the first 24 hours, avoid makeup, do not massage the injection points and avoid intense exercise, saunas and steam baths. Limiting alcohol on the first day reduces the risk of bruising.
Sunscreen use is important to maintain the results.
Does Profhilo Have Side Effects?
Mild redness, swelling, tenderness and bruising may occur at the injection points; these usually resolve within 1–2 days.
Serious side effects are rare. It is important that the treatment is performed by an authorized doctor, with an original product and under sterile conditions.
