At a certain time of year especially around the colder months, you may notice that your skin is paying the price. This could be your face, neck, hands, decolletage or even underarms, if the skin is appearing crepy, dull and beginning to show signs of ageing including fine lines and wrinkles, then a Profhilo treatment may be the perfect solution!
What is Profhilo?
Profhilo is the ultimate hydration and rejuvenation treatment. It is a skin remodelling treatment that contains one of the highest concentrations of Hyaluronic Acid (HA) available on the market! Hyaluronic Acid is a water-attracting substance, that provides much-needed hydration to the skin's upper surface. Water is not created by Hyaluronic acid, instead, it attracts water from deep within and releases it into the skin for the ultimate skin hydration!
What happens in a Profhilo Treatment?
Consultation
Firstly prior to any Profhilo treatment, you will visit one of our expert cosmetic doctors for a bespoke consultation. This is a chance to discuss your concerns and desires, as well as an opportunity for the doctor to assess any potential medical contradictions as well as to determine if Profhilo is the most suitable treatment for you!
Skin Prep - Cleanse and Mark
It is important to cleanse and prep the skin prior to any Profhilo treatment as this is an injectable treatment, cleansing the skin is a must! This removes any make-up or impurities that may be on the skin, ensuring these do not cause any infection to the injection site.
Now it is time to mark the skin! When Profhilo is injected into the face it is placed into 5 points that need to be mapped out prior to the Profhilo treatment. This is done using a cosmetic pencil and each point is chosen by your doctor in relation to achieving the maximum results.
Profhilo Injections
The doctor will then begin to inject the Profhilo into the mapped out site. The Profhilo injections are a quick and easy process, clients may feel a slight prick when the needle is inserted, and often you can feel a slight stinging as the Profhilo disperses under the skin. The doctor will then massage the Profhilo injection site to ensure that the product has been distributed under the skin evenly. This whole Profhilo treatment can take around 30 minutes* including cleansing and aftercare.
Once all the injections have been administered, the doctor will then re cleanse the skin and apply a medical grade SPF to ensure no UV damage is endured on the injection site.
How long does Profhilo take to work?
We recommend having two Profhilo treatments, four weeks apart. You may notice some skin hydration and slight plumping around two weeks after your first Profhilo treatment. However, the maximum results are visible a couple of weeks after your second session. This is because the Hyaluronic Acid has had a chance to attract hydration and in turn, rejuvenate and plump the skin. We advise a top-up after six months after your second Profhilo treatment to ensure that your results are maintained.
Is Profhilo Safe?
Profhilo was founded in Italy in 2015, and it has been in use worldwide ever since. Over 300,000 patients have been treated so far, with no severe reactions reported. There can be mild side effects such as redness, slight pain and even swelling but these are temporary. From a safety point of view, it is made from ultra-pure, natural hyaluronic acid and stabilised without chemical cross-linking agents; this reduces the risk of adverse reactions, so the downtime is minimal.
