What Is Profhilo?

Profhilo is an injectable, stabilized Hyaluronic Acid based product, designed to remodel multiple-layers skin tissue.It is an anti-aginginjectabe product that treats the source of aging and not just the aging symptoms. Profhilo is neither dermal filler, nor a skin revitalizer and is clinically-proven to improve skin hydration and texture from the inside out.

Profhilo

The Natural Solution- Highly-Pure Hyaluronic Acid- Highest Concentration

  • Profhilo’sfeatures the highest concentration of hyaluronic acid
  • Profhilo contains 64 mg of pure hyaluronic acid (HA), produced without the use of chemical cross-linking agents.
  • Profhilo combines low-molecular weight HA with high-molecular weight HA.

Profhilo is a revolutionary patented ‘beneath the skin' hyaluronic acid moisturizing treatment, which has a prolonged stimulating activity on the dermal cells. Profhilostimulates the skin cell receptors to counteract skin laxity and improve and restore firmness of the skin.

Profhilo boosts and hydrates the skin, but also remodels ageing and sagging tissue. The common areas of treatment include the face, neck, décolletage, hands, arms, knees and abdomen area. Profhilo treatment is suitable for both men and women and offers skin benefits for patients of all ages.

How Does Profhilo Work?

Skin bio-remodeling literally changes the way skin looks and feels. Profhilo stimulates collagen and elastin, attracting water in the deeper layers of the skin. Cellular repair and remodeling happen from the inside out, with results that no topical moisturizer or serum can ever match. Profhilo stimulates four different types of collagen and elastin by slow release of hyaluronic acid.

PROFHILO is askin tissue enhancer that remodels 3 main types of cells:

  • Fibroblasts: Stimulates the fibroblast cells, thereby increasing collagen and elastin production.
  • Keratinocytes: activates the keratinocytes to increase the synthesis of collagen and elastin.
  • Adipocytes (fat cells): Preserves and encourages the viability of adipocytes that affect the quality of adipose tissue.

Profhilo enhances the skin’s natural healing properties through bio-remodeling. It improves skin vitality, hydration, and elasticity organically; the results look natural.Profhilo also has a significant tightening / lifting effect on the tissue.The 100% pure hyaluronic acid compound is completely biocompatible. Transformation happens on a cellular level with visible improvements that last long after the hyaluronic acid has dissipated.

Bio Aesthetic Points (BAP) - Reduced Number Of Injections Sites = Reduced Discomfort= Lunchtime Treatment = Reduced Or Eliminated Downtime

BAP technique is developed to treat dermal atrophy caused by aging in the malar and sub-malar areas – around the cheekbones.Focused on 5 Bio Aesthetic Points (BAP), it minimizes risks, while maximizing diffusion of the product on face. Five little injections on each side of face, accomplished virtually painlessly in just a few minutes. The injection points support progressive diffusion across the widest sections of the face through sub-dermal patterns. There is very little risk of bruising and literally no downtime. Any small red bumps that may be present at the injection site clear up in as little as two hours.

A BAP technique, using 10 points, has been similarly created for the neck.

Solves Common Concerns: Most women complain of: crêpe-y texture, sagging skin due to lack of elasticity, and dullness. Profhilo remodels the skin and overwrites these concerns with taut, glowing skin.

Profhilo hyaluronic acid anti-aging treatment is complete after just two treatments, one month apart. Results last for a long time and patients notice dramatic improvements in both the dermis (how skin feels) and epidermis (how skin looks)!

Frequently Asked Questions

What results can I expect?

After a single course of Profhilo involving two injectable treatments four weeks apart, patients, can expect to see an intense hydration. It makes the skin glow and fine lines decrease; skin feels smoother and tighter. For patients with much wrinkled skin, an improvement in the texture is noticed. The treatment is repeated after six months in cases where more improvement is desired.

Where is Profhilo to be used?

Profhilo is used to treat facial areas, neck, décolleté, arms, knees and hands.

How long do Profhilo results last?

The results from the Profhilo treatment usually last for up to six months, but results can differ for each individual.

Is it expected to have lumps at Profhiloinjection sites, and how long will they last?

There is a chance of formation oflocalized lumps at each of the injection sites. These lumps usually subside within 4-6 hours after the treatment but sometimes can last up to 24 hours. Not every patient gets these swellings.

What is the downtime after treatments?

The downtime is minimal when injected using the five-point BAP technique on each side of the face. The hyaluronic acid start diffusing very quickly and the swellings disappear completely by next day.

Post Procedure Care:

  • Do not massage or manipulate injected areas for 24 hours after injections. Washing your face and applying make-up is fine.
  • Do not receive facial/ laser treatments or microdermabrasion after skin booster injections for at least 10 days.
  • Do not wear a headband or hat if you have had injections between the brows or in the forehead
  • Refrain from aerobic exercise that increases your heart rate significantly (running, swimming, bicycling) for 24 hours following injections. Walking or other low impact forms of exercise are fine
  • Refrain from using ibuprofen, aspirin, fish oil supplements, or vitamin E for 24 hours following injection
  • If bruising appears, apply ice to the area for 15 minutes every hour to decrease bruising
How quickly are the results?

Patients can expect increased firmness, elasticity and an improved quality of the skin, optimum result at 2 weeks. We recommend scheduling a follow-up appointment 2 weeks after your treatment.

Will people be able to tell my “Profhilo” treatment?

People won’t be able to tell if you’ve had a treatment. This also depends on the skin condition being treated and the desired outcome. Profhilo can significantly improve skin laxity. By increasing the tissue density some patients have noticed lifting. Most patients are complemented on how fresh they looked, but hardly ever asked if they had any “work done”.

Are there any side effects of Profhilo treatment?

Hyaluronic Acid is very well tolerated by the skin. The commonly reported side effects are bruising and mild swelling at the injection sites. These generally disappear in a short period of time.

Is Profhilo treatment safe?

Profhilo is highly biocompatible. It is made from ultrapure, natural Hyaluronic Acid and is stabilized without the addition of chemical cross-linking agents. This reduces the risk of adverse reactions.

How will I know if the side effects of treatment are normal, or something serious has happened?

After your Profhilo treatment, the common effects are mild redness, slight swelling and possible bruising. The treatment area may feel tender to touch and all of these effects are normal, subside in a few days, but may last up to a week. Each day everything should improve slightly and the area should look more normal and feel better.

It is very uncommon to have any serious side effects, however if you do experience any of the following, please call the clinic immediately, or if after hours, seek help from hospital:

  • Swelling that is getting worse as time passes
  • Increase in pain and getting more severe with time
  • Skin feeling hot, redness increasing and becoming worse in time
  • Skin near the treatment area or along the side of the nose looking pale/white or greyish in color on the procedure day or day after the treatment, and pain increasing in this area
  • Generally feeling unwell in the days following the treatment
