Profhilo is an exciting and award-winning new type of injectable that focuses on bio-remodelling. In other words, it encourages the collagen and elastin fibres within your skin to lift and tighten. You might also hear Profhilo referred to as ‘hydralifting’ because it hydrates and lifts the skin.
With just two treatments administered 28 days apart, Profhilo can visibly give your skin a much younger appearance, leaving it dewy, slightly plumper, smoother, firmer and with a healthy glow.
Profhilo stimulates the growth of four different types of collagen and elastin to create a more youthful, revitalised look that can last for up to six to eight months.
It can be used on its own or to complement other injectable treatments.
It doesn’t add volume or ‘fill’ in the same way as dermal fillers but instead supports the underlying structure and tissues of your skin to improve their overall health.
One area where this really shows is around the cheekbones, which tend to take on the more rounded appearance of our younger days. The skin around the eyes looks rested and smoother too.
This is an ideal treatment for firming up and smoothing out crepe-textured skin on your neck as well as minimising accordion (smile) lines around your mouth and marionette lines that run from the nose to the chin. It’s also fantastic for fading away acne scars.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
How much hyaluronic acid is in Profhilo?
At 64mg per 2ml, Profhilo is formulated with one of the highest concentrations of hyaluronic acid on the market. This makes it a highly effective product.
How long will the results last?
Because Profhilo doesn’t use synthetic cross-linking chemicals, your body’s natural metabolic processes will break it down after approximately 28 days. However, by this time, the slow release of hyaluronic acid will have started a chain reaction to stimulate the growth of four different types of collagen and elastin. It will also help to hydrate your skin and strengthen the tissue.
This means that the results can last for up to six to eight months, after which you would need a top-up treatment to maintain the appearance achieved with Profhilo. As with all treatments, the results will differ from one person to the next.
How many treatments will I need?
You would need two Profhilo treatments 28 days apart initially then a top-up treatment every six to eight months to maintain the results.
What does BDDE-free mean?
Dermal fillers usually contain BDDE (1,4-butanediol diglycidyl ether), which is a synthetic cross-linking chemical that helps to prevent the hyaluronic acid in the products being broken down too quickly by the body.
Profhilo is BDDE-free, which means it appeals to people who would prefer to avoid the use of synthetic chemicals.
Instead, Profhilo uses patented technology to create high molecular weight and low molecular weight hyaluronic acid that work together within the skin. The smaller, high weight molecules hydrate the skin while the larger, low weight molecules plump and tighten.
