Profhilo® is used to treat skin laxity on the face and neck and helps remodel wrinkled, sagging and creepy skin. It hydrates the skin and has a stimulatory effect on the cells producing collagen and elastin to help tighten and lift the skin, improving skin quality giving a more youthful look.
Profhilo® is injected just beneath the skin using a specialised technique. Unlike dermal fillers, it spreads evenly to hydrate, stimulate, and remodel the skin rather than adding volume.
Profhilo® is made of a high concentration of a carbohydrate called hyaluranon that is naturally present in the skin but declines with age. Profhilo® has a unique formulation which is free of additives. It is injected just beneath the skin at precise points. Its consistency is such that allows it to evenly spread through the skin tissues and underlying structures forming a hydrating layer as well as stimulating cell production including collagen and elastin.
Profhilo® Structura is the first product on the market that exclusively targets superficial fat cells. The unique properties of Profhilo® Structura work to stimulate dormant fat cells, encouraging them to “wake up” and resume producing vital skin signals. Essentially, these fat cells begin to behave as they did in their younger years, resulting in visibly lifted skin, enhanced jawline contour, and reduced nasolabial heaviness.
The key differences are:
Treatment Concerns: Profhilo® focuses on hydration, elasticity and overall skin quality, while Profhilo® Structura is indicated to improve structural support, lifting, and contouring.
Results: Profhilo® provides a subtle, natural improvement in skin quality, whereas Profhilo® Structura offers more pronounced lifting and structural enhancement.
Patient Suitability: Although both can be used on similar areas, the specific needs of the patient (e.g. hydration as opposed to lifting) will determine which product is more appropriate. Profhilo® is ideal for those seeking overall skin rejuvenation and hydration, while Profhilo® Structura is better suited for individuals looking for more significant lifting and structural improvements.
Profhilo® is suitable for patients who want to:
Profhilo® is used to treat skin laxity and to help remodel ageing, sagging and crepey skin. It hydrates the skin and is shown to have a stimulatory effect on the cells producing collagen and elastin to help tighten and lift the skin and improve skin quality to give it a more youthful look. The results of Profhilo® treatments can last up to 6-9 months, however, this may vary by patient and depends on skin type and age.
