Considered one of the most effective treatments for improving skin hydration and achieving a more vibrant, rejuvenated look, Profhilo treatment has become the essential treatment.
In this guide, we’ll be exploring all there is to know about Profhilo treatment, including safety, side effects, benefits and more. If any of your questions aren’t answered, please get in touch with our friendly team, who will be able to help advise you on this treatment.
THE TREATMENT
HOW DOes Profhilo WORK?
Profhilo® is a revolutionary 'beneath-the-skin' hyaluronic acid moisturising treatment, made with a unique hyaluronic acid injectable gel, which has a prolonged stimulating activity on your dermal cells. When injected into the skin, Profhilo® encourages the skin cell receptors to counteract skin laxity and improve the firmness of your skin.
What can be treated with Profhilo?
With one of the highest concentrations of hyaluronic acid on the market, Profhilo not only strengthens and hydrates the skin but also addresses ageing and improves the laxity of sagging tissue.
The most common application for treatment includes the face and neck areas, such as the forehead, cheeks, chin, jaw and neckline. Aside from facial areas, the treatment can also be used for your décolletage, hands, arms, knees and abdomen areas, where it can also effectively improve skin laxity. Profhilo is suitable for men and women and offers skin benefits for patients over 18 years old.
HOW LONG DOES THIS TREATMENT TAKE?
Depending on the number of areas being treated, you can expect this treatment to last between 15 to 30 minutes. Nice and quick, perfect for those with a busy schedule.
SAFETY
Is Profhilo SAFE?
One of the benefits of Profhilo treatment is its incredible safety record. Profhilo is considered completely safe by medical practitioners. As it is formulated with 100% hyaluronic acid, no added chemicals, and is biocompatible, it will not cause any harm to your facial tissue. The significant lack of additives minimises the risk of any complications and side effects.
ARE THERE ANY SIDE EFFECTS?
You will be pleased to know, there are no known risks associated with the ever popular Profhilo treatment. There are some minor skin irritations such as bruising, or swelling that are common with injections however these will often disappear within a day. We would not recommended or perform this treatment on women who are pregnant or breastfeeding or people who have allergies to hyaluronic acid.
DOes Profhilo HURT?
Although needles and injections can be scary for some, the injection for Profhilo causes minimal discomfort, but most people find it easily tolerable, especially with the numbing cream. Most clients describe the feeling as a small pinch to the skin and nothing more. The needles we use are extremely thin and will not be felt during the procedure.
If you would prefer to have numbing cream for your treatment, please let your practitioner know and this can be arranged.
IS THERE ANY DOWNTIME FOR THIS TREATMENT?
Another significant benefit of Profhilo treatment is that there is no downtime or the need for time off work after your Profhilo treatment. Following the treatment, feel free to return to your routine day-to-day activities. We recommend that for the first 24 hours following the treatment, you refrain from applying makeup as this may irritate the site of the injection.
RESULTS
WHEN CAN I EXPECT TO SEE THE RESULTS OF MY TREATMENT?
Most people tend to feel an immediate improvement thanks to the hydrating effect. However, it can take a few weeks to notice the natural treatment results. As the Profhilo encourages the body’s natural processes to produce its anti-ageing collagen and elastin, this can take some time to activate, building your results over time.
HOW LONG DO RESULTS FROM Profhilo LAST?
Although the Profhilo solution will only remain in your body for around one month, results will improve with time and can last roughly six months. The duration of results can vary depending on the individual, their general health and the areas treated.
