Profhilo® is the first injectable hyaluronic acid (HA) based product for treating skin laxity. HA is hydrophilic, meaning it draws and holds water from your body, so Profhilo® acts as a hydrator rather than a filler. This makes it fantastic for those with tired, dull-looking skin, transforming it into firm, luminous skin. This effect takes place within 3-5 days of treatment.
What to expect during and after treatment?
Profhilo treatment involves small injections of the product for the area treated. It can be used to treat the face, neck and hands. Small bumps may be visible at the injection site directly after treatment and these will gradually disappear over the following 2-24 hours. Results can be seen as early as 3-5 days after the first treatment, however 2 treatments 4-weeks apart are recommended for the best results.
How is PROFHILO different from dermal fillers?
The difference between Profhilo® and dermal fillers is that Profhilo® stimulates collagen production in the skin itself via its slow release of Hyaluronic acid. As a result of this, you can expect a more youthful, plump, and hydrated look. This unique process is referred to as skin bio-remodeling. Unlike dermal fillers, Profhilo does not add volume to the face. Instead it improves skin hydration, glow and may create a “lift” in tissues treated.
