Profhilo

A bio-remodelling gel that spreads through the skin to firm laxity, rather than sitting as a fixed point of volume.

Profhilo bio-remodelling injection being administered

What it is

A high-concentration, slow-release hyaluronic acid gel injected at a small number of points, from which it spreads through the surrounding tissue over several days — stimulating collagen and elastin rather than sitting as a fixed volume like structural filler.

Who it's for

Guests with early to moderate skin laxity on the face, neck, or arms — a looseness that isn't about lost volume in one specific spot, but the skin's overall firmness and elasticity.

What happens at your appointment

A small number of injection points — usually five per side of the face, more for the neck or arms — placed at set anatomical positions. Little to no numbing is typically needed. Appointments run 20–30 minutes.

Results & recovery

The gel spreads and remodels over the days following injection, with visible firming building through the two-session course. Small bumps at each point settle within a day or two.

Questions

Profhilo — frequently asked

Twenty answers written by our physicians.

What is Profhilo and when do you recommend it?
A high-concentration bio-remodelling gel for laxity of the cheeks, neck and arms. Two sessions, four weeks apart.
How is this different from regular filler?
Regular filler adds volume at the point it's placed. Profhilo spreads through the tissue from just a handful of points, working on skin quality and firmness rather than shape.
Does it hurt?
Fewer injection points than most treatments, and the product itself causes minimal discomfort — many guests skip numbing cream entirely.
How many sessions will I need?
A course of two sessions, four weeks apart, is the standard protocol, followed by a maintenance session roughly every six months.
How long does the appointment take?
20 to 30 minutes, since only a small number of points are treated.
How soon will I see results?
Some firming is visible within a week of each session, with the full effect of the two-session course visible about a month after the second appointment.
How long does it last?
Typically 6 months per course, after which most guests return for a single maintenance session rather than repeating the full course.
Can it be used on the neck?
Yes — the neck is one of the most common areas, since it shows laxity early and doesn't respond well to structural filler the way the face does.
Is it suitable for the arms or hands?
Yes, the upper arms and backs of the hands are increasingly common areas, particularly for guests noticing crepey skin there.
What is the downtime?
Minimal. Small raised bumps at each injection point are visible for a day or two, sometimes described as looking like small insect bites, before they flatten and absorb.
Will it change my face shape?
No — Profhilo doesn't add volume the way structural filler does. The change is in skin firmness and quality, not contour.
Can it be combined with structural filler?
Yes — many guests use Profhilo for overall skin quality alongside cheek or jawline filler for shape, either together or staged a few weeks apart.
Is it suitable for early signs of ageing?
Yes — guests in their late twenties and thirties often use it preventatively for skin quality, not just those with established laxity.
What are the risks?
Bruising and small bumps at injection points are the most common. Serious complications are rare and are covered in the consent you review at consultation.
Can men have Profhilo?
Yes — skin laxity affects all genders, and the treatment protocol is the same regardless.
Is it painful compared to other injectables?
Generally one of the more comfortable injectable treatments, given the small number of points and the product's own properties.
Who performs the injections?
Only physicians and specialist nurses trained in this specific bio-remodelling technique and its anatomical injection points.
What should I avoid beforehand?
Avoid alcohol and blood-thinning medication for 24–48 hours where possible, to limit bruising at the injection points.
Can it help with acne scarring or texture?
It can improve overall skin quality and firmness around scarring, though established scarring usually needs a dedicated resurfacing treatment for real change.
How does it compare to a skin booster?
Both improve skin quality, but Profhilo focuses on firmness and elasticity through fewer, more concentrated points, while skin boosters focus on hydration through many small, evenly spaced injections.
