About The Treatment

What is Profhilo?

Profhilo® is an injectable skin remodelling treatment made from a high concentration of pure hyaluronic acid. After injection, it spreads beneath the skin, deeply hydrating the tissue while stimulating your own collagen and elastin. Unlike dermal fillers, which replace lost volume, Profhilo flows evenly through the skin to improve hydration, elasticity and firmness across the whole treated area. The result is healthier, more radiant skin that develops a natural glow over the weeks after treatment.

How does Profhilo work?

As we age, the skin produces less collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid, so it loses hydration, firmness and elasticity. Profhilo replenishes hyaluronic acid within the skin and stimulates fibroblast cells to produce fresh collagen and elastin. Rather than masking the signs of ageing, it supports healthier skin from within, improving hydration, elasticity and overall skin quality.

What can Profhilo treat, and is it right for me?

Profhilo suits people who want fresher, better-hydrated skin without adding facial volume. It is popular with patients in their 30s, 40s and 50s and is commonly used to improve:

  • Dull, dehydrated skin
  • Fine lines and early signs of ageing
  • Mild skin laxity and loss of elasticity
  • Skin texture on the face, neck and décolletage
  • Ageing skin on the hands

At your consultation, Dr Cat will confirm whether Profhilo is the right choice, or suggest a better option if not.

How Profhilo compares

Profhilo vs polynucleotides

Both improve skin quality but have different strengths. Profhilo focuses on deep hydration and skin remodelling with hyaluronic acid while stimulating collagen. Polynucleotides focus more on tissue repair, regeneration and calming inflammation, so they suit crepey skin, dark circles, sun damage and rosacea-prone skin. Profhilo tends to suit dehydrated or dull skin and mild laxity. Some people benefit from both, and Dr Cat will advise what suits you.

Profhilo vs Radiesse

Both stimulate collagen, but in different ways. Profhilo focuses on deep hydration while improving elasticity and skin quality. Radiesse works more on firming and tightening, so it suits more noticeable skin laxity. If your main concern is dehydration and dullness, Profhilo is usually the better fit. If firmness is the priority, I may recommend Radiesse instead.

Your Profhilo Skin Boosters Questions Answered

Everything you need to know about Profhilo Skin Boosters at Teeth & Face. Can't find your answer? Get in touch, and we'll be happy to help.

How much does Profhilo cost?

The cost depends on the area treated and how many sessions you need, so it is confirmed after a skin assessment rather than quoted blind. At your complimentary consultation, Dr Cat will assess your skin, discuss your options and give you a clear written quote, with no obligation to go ahead.

What is Profhilo made from?

A high concentration of pure hyaluronic acid, with no chemical cross-linking agents, which lets it spread smoothly beneath the skin.

Is Profhilo safe?

Profhilo has a well-established safety record when carried out by a suitably qualified medical professional. As with any injectable there are some risks, and Dr Cat will review your medical history and go through these with you beforehand.

Is Profhilo a filler?

No. It contains hyaluronic acid, but unlike a dermal filler it is not designed to replace volume or change your facial shape. It improves hydration and stimulates collagen across the treated area.

Does Profhilo hurt?

Most people find it very comfortable. The injections are quick and treatment usually takes around 30 minutes.

How many Profhilo treatments will I need?

Usually two treatments four weeks apart, followed by a maintenance treatment every six months.

When will I see Profhilo results, and how long do they last?

Many people notice improved hydration within a few weeks, with the full result developing after the second treatment. Results typically last around six months before a maintenance treatment is recommended.

Can Profhilo treat the neck and chest?

Yes. It is one of the most popular treatments for improving hydration, fine lines and crepey skin on the neck and décolletage.

Can Profhilo be combined with other treatments?
