Profhilo is a unique injectable treatment that falls under the category of bio-remodelling rather than traditional dermal fillers. It's a relatively new approach to skin rejuvenation that has gained popularity for its ability to improve skin texture, hydration, and overall quality. We offer Profhilo at both our Doncaster and Bawtry clinics. Here are some key facts about Profhilo:
1. **Hybrid Treatment:** Profhilo is often referred to as a "hybrid" treatment because it combines the benefits of both dermal fillers and skin boosters. It works by stimulating collagen and elastin production in the skin while also providing hydration.
2. **Hyaluronic Acid:** Like many dermal fillers, Profhilo is made from hyaluronic acid (HA), a naturally occurring substance in the skin that helps maintain moisture and elasticity.
3. **High Concentration of HA:** Profhilo contains a high concentration of HA compared to traditional fillers. However, it's not used to add volume or create structure like fillers. Instead, it's used to improve skin quality.
4. **Bio-remodelling:** Profhilo is specifically designed to remodel the skin by boosting the body's production of collagen and elastin. It addresses skin laxity and improves overall skin health.
5. **Minimal Injection Points:** During treatment, Profhilo is injected into specific points on the face or other areas of concern. Unlike fillers, which are injected more superficially, Profhilo injections are deeper and cover a larger area.
6. **Two Treatment Sessions:** A typical Profhilo treatment plan consists of two sessions, spaced about a month apart. This allows for optimal collagen and elastin stimulation.
7. **Natural Results:** Profhilo aims to provide natural results that enhance skin quality and radiance. It's not used for adding volume or changing facial contours.
8. **No Downtime:** One of the advantages of Profhilo is that it typically involves minimal downtime. Patients can resume their normal activities shortly after the treatment.
9. **Long-Lasting Effects:** The effects of Profhilo can last for several months after the treatment sessions. The treatment stimulates ongoing collagen production, so results can continue to improve over time.
10. **Versatile Application:** While commonly used on the face, Profhilo can also be used on other parts of the body, such as the neck, décolletage, and hands, to improve skin quality.
11. **Consultation:** A consultation with a skilled and experienced healthcare practitioner is essential before undergoing any treatment, including Profhilo. They can assess your skin, discuss your goals, and determine if Profhilo is the right option for you.
Keep in mind that individual experiences with Profhilo can vary, and results depend on factors like skin type, age, and overall health. Consulting with a qualified practitioner is the best way to determine if Profhilo is suitable for your specific skin rejuvenation needs. You can book your next Profhilo treatment at our Doncaster or Bawtry clinics.
