Profhilo skin booster
An innovative injectable skin treatment that contains one of the highest concentrations of hyaluronic acid (HA) on the market. Stimulating the skin’s natural collagen and elastin production, improving overall skin hydration, firmness, and elasticity.
Profhilo is an innovative injectable skin treatment designed to improve skin hydration, elasticity, and overall quality. It is made of pure hyaluronic acid (HA) and is unique in that it acts as a bio-remodeling agent, rather than just a dermal filler. Profhilo contains one of the highest concentrations of HA available (64 mg/2ml), which is essential for maintaining skin moisture and elasticity.
Unlike dermal fillers that lift deep wrinkles and create facial volume, Profhilo spreads evenly through the skin, stimulating the production of collagen and elastin. This bio-remodeling process helps improve skin tone, texture, and hydration from within. The HA is slowly released, ensuring long-lasting hydration and stimulating skin regeneration over time.
Profhilo is suitable for adults of various age groups looking to improve skin quality, particularly those experiencing signs of ageing or skin laxity. It is effective for all skin types, especially those with dehydrated or dull skin.
Profhilo is typically administered through a series of small injections at specific points on the face or body. The injection technique used is often referred to as the BAP (Bio Aesthetic Points) technique for optimal diffusion and effectiveness.
Profhilo is minimally invasive with little to no downtime. Patients can usually return to their normal activities immediately after treatment.
