PROFHILO treatment
Profhilo is a unique non-crosslinked Hyaluronic acid gel that is best used in improving skin plumpness and reducing fine lines and wrinkles on the surface of the skin. It is used as a way of boosting the skins glow and hydration levels without making you look like you have had any filler treatment. It is a very popular treatment currently as it is a natural way to refresh your appearance and treat skin laxity
Profhilo is administered in 10 very superficial injection sites in the treatment area and will leave small bumps for 1-2 days. A recommended treatment course is 2 treatments spaced 4 weeks apart.
Frequently asked questions about PROFHILO treatment
What can PROFHILO be used to treat?
Profhilo is excellent at treating anywhere we have skin laxity or need a boost in hydration. It can be used in the face, the neck, the decolletage, the backs of the hands and the abdomen. It is also a treatment we often use in bridal packages as it boosts the skin giving a refreshed look.
What can I do after treatment?
Following treatment the main thing is to not touch the area for 12 hours. Other things that should be avoided include strenuous exercise, applying makeup (for the rest of that day) and taking anything that may encourage bruising such as aspirin.
How often will I need treatment?
A course of treatment is 2 treatments 4 weeks apart. Results last between 6-9 months and many patients have this treatment every 3-4 months as a maintenance treatment.
How long does it take for PROFHILO to work?
50% of patients notice a result 2 weeks after the first treatment but we always recommend a course of 2 before any noticeable results are visible
