Lauded as the anti-wrinkle treatment for 2019, Profhilo is an injectable skin bio-remodelling treatment specially formulated for individuals whose skin lacks volume, elasticity and firmness. This “injectable skincare” can be used on the face, neck, decollete, arms, hands and knees, or any part of your body where the skin shows visible signs of ageing. Thus, addressing issues such as sagging skin, skin laxity, fine lines and wrinkles.
Containing one of the highest concentrations of Hyaluronic Acid (HA) on the market, at 64mg/2ml, the slow release of HA by Profhilo helps to hydrate the skin deeply, and stimulates collagen and elastin production. In turn, the process helps to re-texture crepey skin, and improve skin tone and skin quality lasting for up to 6 months.
Summarily, HA is a natural substance produced in our body, which can be found in our skin, joints, and other connective tissue—further advancing its role as a hydrophilic, the HA assists in retaining moisture from the body, aiding the overall collagen production. The HA is known to have the ability to hold 1000 times its weight in water which make it ideal for binding moisture in the skin.
However, with age, individuals’ hyaluronic acid production slows down, causing one’s skin to look dull, and dehydrated along with the formation of fine lines and wrinkles. Likewise, slower collagen and elastin production may also result in one’s feature losing volume and overall sagging of skin.
With that, Profhilo acts as an “injectable hydrator and moisturiser”, and it is able to reverse the signs of ageing quickly, deeply hydrates and adds enough volume to the skin to even out the fine lines and wrinkles. To achieve that, the Profhilo is injected just underneath the surface of the skin (2 injectable treatments, 4 weeks apart), allowing the hydrating elements to disperse quickly into the skin tissue.
After the Profhilo treatment, you can expect smoother, tighter, firmer, and more luminous skin. This effect takes place within 3-5 days of treatment. Hence, over the next few weeks, collagen and elastin production is enhanced, resulting in more volumized skin and evening out of fine lines. The maximum effect of Profhilo is usually seen 2 months after the second treatment.
The treatment has no downtime. Individuals who have undergone the Prophilo treatment should be able to return to their daily activities immediately. However, we advise all patients to avoid intense sunlight and steamy hot baths or saunas as the skin may still be sensitive for the first few days.
It is also advisable for all patients to avoid alcohol, aspirin or anti-inflammatory medication 24 hours before treatment.
As with all injectable treatments, there will be a risk of some side effects, such as minor swelling or bruising on the injection points. However, these do not usually occur and generally subside rapidly after the treatment.
