This week we want to introduce you to a breakthrough treatment at The Cosmetic Skin Clinic; Profhilo. If ever you needed a non-surgical solution to hydrate, lift and tighten your skin without volumising it, then this is the solution you have been seeking.
What is Profhilo?
Profhilo is a new generation of hyaluronic acid which stimulates collagen and elastin production deep within the skin. Profhilo differs from standard hyaluronic acids thanks to its higher concentration, which spreads throughout the skin rapidly to bring back structure and tautness to it.
Thanks to its uniquely designed formulation, it does not over-inflate or over-plump the skin, but instead gives it strength and support by boosting the body’s own natural collagen and elastin stores. The result is an immediate improvement to the texture and tightness of your skin, with results that last up to 6 months.
What does a Profhilo treatment involve?
Profhilo is an injection that delivers hyaluronic acid to strategic points. Once injected, the substance naturally spreads and disperses across the treatment area by blending smoothly into the deep layers of the skin. When there, it starts to boost and enhance elastin and collagen production, resulting in significant improvements to the skin’s overall tissue quality.
Profhilo for the neck
Profhilo is a fantastic treatment to lift and tighten sagging skin across the neck and décolletage area. As we age, our skin can lose its firmness and structure in this zone, resulting in dreaded ‘turkey neck‘ skin folds. By stimulating collagen and elastin stores deep within the neck area, wrinkles are naturally reduced as the sagging skin folds tighten up and structure is restored.
Profhilo for hands
Profhilo is also an ideal treatment to correct fine lines and wrinkles across your hands. Thanks to Profhilo’s intensely hydrating hyaluronic acid formulation, the skin has the power to retain more water, which helps to firm up aged or wrinkled skin.
Does Profhilo have side effects?
Visible bumps can appear at the Profhilo injection sights, but they tend to disappear in just a few hours. After this time, no visible marks will appear on the skin.
Profhilo for neck results
Profhilo reboots your natural collagen and elastin stores to give you refreshed and replenished skin. Hydration will be restored and your skin will look tighter and more revitalised, with results lasting up to six months after treatment. Results can vary from patient to patient, and following a consultation with your practitioner and an assessment of your needs, you will be advised which treatment protocol is best for you.
To see Dr Joanna Christou, one of our talented cosmetic doctors demonstrate our new Profhilo treatment on the neck and hands of one of our patients Alison, watch the video below.
Profhilo made Alison feel “super hydrated, but also really subtlety lifted and plumped.”
She loved the results so much that she has already booked her top-up treatment with us.
