HYDRATION BOOST
Profhilo® Skin Boosters
Profhilo® is an injectable anti-ageing treatment made from hyaluronic acid to address skin that is losing its elasticity and firmness with age. It is injected just below the surface of the skin where it disperses quickly and reacts with the tissue to instantly boost hydration.
It can be applied to hands, neck, décolletage or face.
Immediately following the treatment there will be a noticeable improvement in skin tone, hydration as well as firmness, and lines are minimised.
Over the next four weeks, the Profhilo® treatment works to boost elastin and collagen production, effectively remodelling the skin and giving it a plumper, smoother and firmer appearance.
If you are considering Profhilo® treatment, then here are a few common questions that arise from people considering treatment for the first time. We welcome all our clients to book in for a consultation to go through any of these questions and to discuss your exact requirements.
Profhilo® is currently the only treatment of its kind, that remodels the skin from within. It stimulates 4 different types of collagen and elastin due to the slow release of Hyaluronic Acid, and it is this stimulation that results in significant improvement of skin tissue quality.

Testimonial
I have been a patient of Paula's for a number of years undergoing small aesthetic enhancements and skin treatments.
I wanted to add additional treatments to improve skin hydration and the general dull appearance of my skin. Paula suggested Profhilo®, and I honestly couldn't be happier with the results.
I have had a number of Profhilo® treatments now and the results seem to get better each time. I wouldn't go anywhere else.

Frequently asked questions
Who is Profhilo® for?
As we age, the presence of hyaluronic acid in the skin naturally starts to drop, which causes the skin to lose its natural firmness and elasticity. Most people begin to see the effects of hyaluronic acid depletion as they reach their 30s – and Profhilo® is the perfect treatment for anyone looking to counteract this.
Where can Profhilo® be used?
Profhilo® is usually administered into the skin in five key areas (when administered to the face): the tops of cheeks, side of the face, lines around the mouth, nasolabial folds and laughter lines. It can also be used to improve the appearance of the skin around the neck, chest and décolletage or anywhere on the body to achieve tighter, firmer more hydrated skin.
What happens during treatment?
A fine needle is used to inject small amounts of Hyaluronic Acid into 5 specific areas on each side of the face. A topical anaesthetic cream is applied prior to the treatment and generally takes around 30 minutes to perform, once your consent has been obtained and photos have been taken. It is generally described as only mild in discomfort, if at all.
Are there any side effects?
Hyaluronic Acid is very well tolerated by the skin. The only reported side effects are bruising and mild swelling at the injection sites. These generally disappear in a short period of time and are associated with the needle, not the product.
Profhilo® was launched in February 2015 in Italy. It has been used worldwide ever since. From a safety perspective, Profhilo® is highly bio-compatible because it is made from ultra-pure, natural Hyaluronic Acid and is stabilised without the addition of chemical cross-linking agents. This reduces the risk of adverse reactions.
