FAQs

• What is the Profhilo Skin Booster treatment?

• The Profhilo Skin Booster is an injectable treatment for skin laxity that uses a high concentration of Hyaluronic Acid. It is a bio remodelling treatment meaning it helps stimulate the production of collagen, whilst strengthening the ECM (extra cellular matrix) of the skin, improving also the appearance of scars. Profhilo is known world wide and is one of the most trusted Skin Booster treatments available within accredited clinics.

• How Does The Profhilo Skin Booster treatment work?

• The Profhilo Skin Booster treatment works by following what is called the BAP technique (bio aesthetics point technique), which is where the Profhilo Skin Booster agent is injected across 5 points of each side of the face in the malar and sub-malar regions. The Profhilo Skin Booster agent is therefore able to spread evenly to all areas of the face creating a full canvas result.

• Who Is The Profhilo Skin Booster Treatment Suitable For?

• The Profhilo Skin Booster treatment is suitable for all skin tones and skin types with it being most effective on anti-aged skin, skin suffering from scarring/hyperpigmentation/open pores, and skin that feels dull, lifeless, and dehydrated. Due to its collagen remodelling properties, it caters well to clients over the age of 45.

• How many Profhilo treatments are required?

• We recommend an initial course of 2 treatments spaced 4 weeks apart, followed then by maintenance every 3-6 months.

• How long do Profhilo injections last?

• Profhilo treatment lasts for around 6 months, and two treatments are recommended, though this will vary from person to person.

• Profhilo vs Botox

• Profhilo and Botox serve different purposes. Profhilo is a hyaluronic acid-based treatment that stimulates collagen and elastin production for overall skin improvement. Botox, on the other hand, is a neurotoxin that temporarily relaxes muscles to reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines.

• How does Profhilo differ from Dermal Fillers?

• It is a new technology that differs from dermal fillers. It doesn’t increase volume or shape the face, but rather rejuvenates and repairs the skin, providing a lasting, radiant appearance. This treatment is great for reducing signs of ageing, or simply refreshing your look while maintaining your natural beauty.

• Is there any downtime?

• Profhilo is known for minimal downtime. Patients can usually resume their normal activities immediately after the treatment. Some may experience mild redness or swelling, but it typically resolves quickly.

• At what age should I get Profhilo?

• Profhilo is often considered by individuals in their 30s and older who are experiencing signs of skin ageing, such as loss of firmness and hydration. However, the suitability of the treatment depends on individual factors, and a consultation with a qualified professional is recommended.

• How quickly do you see results?

• Results from Profhilo may become noticeable about four weeks after the second treatment session. This is when collagen and elastin production is enhanced, leading to firmer-looking skin.

• Is the Profhilo treatment safe?

• Profhilo is generally considered safe when administered by qualified and experienced professionals. It is made from hyaluronic acid, a substance naturally found in the skin.

• Does Profhilo hurt?

• The injection process may cause mild discomfort, but most patients find it tolerable.

• Are there side effects to Profhilo?

• Common side effects are generally mild and temporary, including redness, swelling, and bruising at the injection sites.
