What is Profhilo?
Profhilo is an award-winning treatment and innovative approach to anti-aging.
Comprised of 100% HA (Hyaluronic Acid), it restores firmness of the skin whilst nourishing dermal cells; providing hydration from the inside out to address ‘crepey’ skin.
Once administered, it spreads freely in the dermis, interacting with the tissue and causing it to regenerate, by stimulating your own production of collagen and elastin. The result of this is a tighter and more youthful appearance.
A visible, and sometimes dramatic, improvement in skin condition can be seen after just 2 sessions, a month apart, and only 5 injection points on each side of the face. The downtime is minimal, and the results are natural. Even though Profhilo is made of Hyaluronic Acid, it is not for adding volume but rather for enhancing skin tone, texture, elasticity and hydration.
What are the advantages of Profhilo
- In Profhilo, L-HA is released slowly from the HA hybrid complexes and therefore does not trigger the first inflammatory cytokines making it very biocompatible. It also increas¬es patient comfort during and after treatment and provides hydration to the skin especially in the epidermis – the Hydro effect.
- H-HA in Profhilo provides a stable HA architecture in the dermis. This gives a volumetric effect – the Lift effect.
- Another advantage of the stable co-operative hybrid complex when compared to H-HA and L-HA is the increase in the ex¬pression levels of type I and type III collagen in fibroblast and type IV and VII collagen in keratinocytes.
- This results in improved skin quality and skin hydration both in the dermis and epidermis. There is also increased production of endogenous HA and elastin giving the skin a more youthful look.
