What is Profhilo?
Profhilo is not a traditional filler. It’s an injectable skin booster made from a high concentration of pure hyaluronic acid.
Instead of adding volume to one area, Profhilo stimulates your skin to produce more of its own collagen and elastin. These are the structural proteins that keep skin firm, supported and springy, and they decline as we age.
How does Profhilo give such natural results?
The secret is in the way Profhilo spreads under the skin. It’s injected at a small number of set points on each side of the face, then disperses evenly across the whole area.
This means it restores collagen and elastin everywhere, equally. Structure is rebuilt in a way that follows the natural contours of your face.
Filler works differently. It’s placed in specific areas, which can change the shape of the face slightly. The contours shift, and you don’t look quite like you. You can look a little off, or unnatural.
With Profhilo, the whole face is refreshed together, so there are no altered contours and no artificial effects.
Structure and skin quality, together
Tightened skin still doesn’t look genuinely youthful unless the skin quality is youthful too. For skin to look beautiful, it needs both:
Structure: firm support that lifts and holds the skin
Quality: hydration, tone, radiance, suppleness and bounce
Because Profhilo works by boosting your own collagen and elastin, it improves both at once. Collagen and elastin don’t just hold the skin up. They also make it smoother, more radiant and more supple.
That’s why Profhilo results look genuinely youthful, not just tighter.
Profhilo vs filler and facelifts
Profhilo
How it works: boosts your own collagen and elastin
Improves structure: yes
Improves skin quality: yes (hydration, tone, radiance)
Natural contours: preserved
Surgery: no
Dermal filler
How it works: adds volume to targeted areas
Improves structure: yes
Improves skin quality: no
Natural contours: can be altered
Surgery: no
Facelift
How it works: lifts tissue and removes excess skin
Improves structure: yes
Improves skin quality: no
Natural contours: can be altered
Surgery: yes
Filler and facelifts still have their place. In more severe cases of sagging, they can pick up any slack that’s left. But I always recommend doing as much as you can with skin boosters like Profhilo first, because that’s what gives the most naturally beautiful result.
The goal is a result that makes people think “wow, she looks beautiful”, not “she’s had a lot of work done”.
Profhilo in London: clinic or home visits
I offer Profhilo treatments in clinic or in the comfort of your own home, across London.
Home visits are ideal if you have a busy schedule or simply prefer to be treated somewhere relaxed and familiar.
I bring everything needed and follow the same high standards of hygiene and care as in clinic.
Just get in touch to arrange a complimentary consultation and choose whichever option suits you best.
If you’d like to find out more or arrange a complimentary consultation, we can discuss a clinic or home visit, depending on your location in London.
How many treatments will I need?
The usual initial course is two treatments, approximately four weeks apart.
To help maintain the results, a maintenance treatment may be recommended around every six months, depending on your skin and individual response.
How much does Profhilo cost?
I’m currently offering an introductory price of £150 each for your first two treatments (usually £250 per treatment).
Klarna payments are available.
When will I see results?
Results develop gradually, as it takes time for the skin to produce enough collagen and elastin to make visible changes.
You will begin to notice improvements in skin hydration, texture and luminosity within a few weeks. You will see the peak effect around 8 weeks after your second treatment.
Do the injections hurt?
With each injection, you will feel a momentary sharp sensation. Fine needles are used.
The standard BAP technique uses five injection points on each side of the face. Because Profhilo spreads under the skin, it minimises the number of injections needed.
Can Profhilo be used on the neck, hands and body?
Profhilo can also be used in suitable areas such as the neck, décolletage, hands, arms, belly, thighs and bottom to improve the appearance of crepey, saggy skin.
Is there any downtime?
Small raised bumps may appear at the injection points. These have usually settled and are almost invisible within a few hours.
Bruising, redness and tenderness can also occur.
Is Profhilo suitable for everyone?
It is not suitable for people who are pregnant or breastfeeding, or who have a known allergy to any of its ingredients.
A consultation and medical history review are essential before treatment. Like all injectable treatments, Profhilo carries potential risks and side effects.
