FAQ's

Profhilo is an innovative anti-aging treatment designed to hydrate your skin for a youthful glow. With its high concentration of hyaluronic acid, it stimulates collagen and elastin production, effectively addressing skin laxity, fine lines, uneven texture, and dullness—leading to smoother, tighter, and more luminous skin.

Our skilled medical experts administer Profhilo into specific areas of the face, neck, décolletage, or hands, allowing it to spread evenly and deeply hydrate the skin while enhancing its natural elasticity. Containing ultra-pure, hydrophilic hyaluronic acid, it attracts moisture from deeper skin layers, providing a prolonged hydration boost and visibly improving the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

It is also ideal for anyone looking for firmer, more hydrated skin.

Is Profhilo safe?  

FAQ's

While some discomfort, stinging, or pain may occur during the procedure, it is generally manageable. For those concerned about pain or anxious about needles, we can use a local anaesthetic to numb the area. The treatment typically takes between 20 and 30 minutes, depending on the areas being treated.

Does Profhilo hurt?  

FAQ's

Post-treatment, we recommend avoiding makeup and strenuous activities such as gym workouts, saunas, or steam rooms for at least 24 hours. It’s also advisable not to touch or rub the injection sites for a few days. You may experience slight bruising or inflammation around the injection sites, but this usually resolves within a couple of days. There is no downtime, allowing you to return to your daily activities immediately.

What should I expect after my treatment?  

FAQ's

For optimal results, we recommend two sessions spaced four weeks apart, followed by a touch-up every 3 to 6 months to maintain your results.

How many treatments do I need?  

FAQ's

You can expect to notice a more hydrated appearance immediately after the treatment, with overall improvements in skin tone, texture, and elasticity becoming evident after about eight weeks.

- Avoid strenuous exercise, alcohol, and excessive heat (such as saunas) for 24 hours.
