Bioremodelling, skin laxity treatment.
A new approach to anti-ageing, Profhilo counteracts skin laxity of the face and in other traditionally difficult to treat areas such as the neck, décolleté, hands and upper arms. Profhilo is not a dermal filler but an ultrapure hyaluronic acid treatment. It integrates into the skin where it restores the levels of hyaluronic acid naturally found in the skin, to deliver improvements in skin texture, elasticity and hydration, which delivers tightening and volumising effects.
Profhilo is a whole face treatment delivered over two treatment sessions, it is minimally invasive, with 5 small injections at strategic points on both sides of the face. The two treatment sessions are delivered at a 4 week interval and maximum results are seen 4 weeks after the second treatment. There is little to no downtime with this treatment, most patients experience little to no bruising or swelling. Results last p to 6 month but can be maintained with a top up treatment every 3-4 months. Profhilo is also a fantastic treatment for neck, décolleté and hands.
