A highly pure injectable hyaluronic acid skin enhancer is called Profhilo Treatment. Profhilo uses unique, patented technology to hydrate the skin from the inside, acting as an internal moisturizer and promoting the synthesis of elastin and collagen. Together, these factors contribute to a reduction in skin slackness and uneven skin tone, resulting in luminous, smooth skin.

How Does It Work?

Profhilo functions as a hydrator rather than a filler since HA is hydrophilic, which means it draws and holds water from your body. This makes it ideal for people with skin that seems weary and dull since it makes their skin firm and radiant. Within three to five days of medication, this impact happens.

 The subsequent weeks saw an increase in collagen and elastin production, which has the side effect of tightening the skin. This is helpful since, beyond the age of 30, the skin’s levels of collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid gradually decline, leading to age-related changes like fine lines, wrinkles, and dull skin. Some of these alterations are reversible thanks to Profhilo. Profhilo often has its greatest impact two months after the second treatment.

 

 Differences Between Fillers And Profhilo

There is only one thing the two have in common: they are both quite different anti-aging remedies. The similarities between Profhilo and fillers end there; both entail injecting hyaluronic acid to reverse indications of aging.

 In contrast to the fluid nature of Profhilo injections, the type of hyaluronic acid utilized in dermal filler injections is thicker and more viscous. And unlike the extremely pure and purified Hyaluronic Acid utilized in Profhilo, the Hyaluronic Acid used in fillers is mixed with other substances. The hyaluronic acid used in each injection is significantly different, even though it is the star of the show in each.

 Second, just one area is targeted at a time while using fillers. However, Profhilo treatment isn’t limited to one location. Profhilo tightens, hydrates, and plumps the entire face. This is so that the Hyaluronic Acid can spread its moisturizing magic throughout the entire face once the Profhilo injections have been administered their ten shots of hydration.

 Profhilo plays no part in volumizing or reshaping the face, but dermal fillers are used to change the shape of facial features and restore lost volume from aging, and contour.

Benefits Of Profhilo

The skin’s tone, texture, moisture, and general radiance are all enhanced with the Profhilo treatment. It can support healthier and softer-looking skin and aid to increase firmness and elasticity. Profhilo can be used to rejuvenate the neck, decollete, arms, knees, and hands in addition to the facial areas where it is most frequently applied.

Candidates for Profhilo

For all skin types on the face, neck, decolletage, and body, Profhilo hydrates the skin deeply and feeds it. For people who complain that their skin is drained, lackluster, or dull, I suggest Profhilo. Instead of filling a space, Profhilo can be used to help cure crepey skin and fine wrinkles by encouraging the development of collagen and elastin.

Profhilo frequently works best when combined with other procedures including PRP, laser and light therapy, and microneedling.

During And After Treatment

The Profhilo treatment consists of two treatments spaced four to six weeks apart. On each side of the face, five pre-selected spots receive an injection of Profhilo beneath the skin’s surface. Similarly, the profile can be used for the torso, decolletage, and neck.

After receiving Profhilo injections, there is little downtime. The areas will be rubbed right after the therapy. For 24-72 hours after treatment, there could be localized bruising, edema, and mild pain in certain regions. As with other injectable procedures, it is advised to wait 24 hours before engaging in strenuous activity, steam, or sauna.

Results of Profhilo

After the first Profhilo session, there is an immediate improvement in skin hydration, and after the second session, there are complete benefits, including improvements in skin texture and laxity.

 

 Every six to nine months, two repeat treatments are advised to maintain results.

Side-Effects of Profhilo

There is a chance of adverse effects, such as little bruising or swelling at the injection sites, as with any non-surgical aesthetic procedures. These rarely happen and, when they do, usually go away fast.

For those who are allergic to hyaluronic acid or are pregnant, nursing, or both, Profhilo is not advised.
