Profhilo

Profhilo is a unique bio remodelling injectable treatment that works to remodel your skin with visible results after only 2 treatments. The procedure stimulates collagen production and elasticity.

As we age, our skin can take on a loose, wrinkled and crepey-looking appearance and our efforts to cover up and improve its appearance can often end up making it more noticeable.

Profhilo works by stimulating your own production of collagen and elastin within your skin which, over time, aims to give you a tighter and more youthful appearance rejuvenating your skin from the deep layers up to the surface of your skin. Your skin tone and texture will also be improved along with the overall hydration of the skin.

Although Profhilo contains hyaluronic acid – a substance that occurs naturally in the body, it is not dermal filler and does not plump or add any volume to the areas treated. Profhilo instead is a unique treatment rivalling dermal fillers with its quick treatment time and only 5 injection points for each side of the face. Profhilo is a great choice for the overall improvement of the texture and quality of the skin without adding significant volume.

Profhilo treatment is available at our clinics in London Harley Street, Birmingham, and Northampton.

Profhilo 100% HA (Hyaluronic Acid) solution which spreads within the skin to remodel the skin structure, nourish the dermal cells and treat skin laxity restoring the firmness of your skin.

Any area of the body could be treated with Profhilo but we most commonly treat the face, neck and hands. Profhilo is suitable for men and women from the age of 30 with no upper age limit.

We do not provide Profhilo treatments to anyone under 18 years old at The Private Clinic and we may ask for ID at the time of your appointment.

Profhilo Treatment

Profhilo is injected using a unique specialised technique called BAP (BIO AESTHETIC POINTS). The BAP technique is 5 entry points of injection for each side of the face. This technique is proven to be anatomically safe avoiding the large vessels and nerves within the face and will give you maximised results with the minimum number of injections required.

The results are an improved skin tone, texture, elasticity and firmness with increased hydration and radiance. You’ll have healthier, softer and smoother skin.

There is minimal downtime associated with profhilo. In most cases, you will be able to return to work and everyday activities immediately after treatment.

You may experience some redness or swelling post-treatment which should reduce after 48 hours.
