Ultra-pure hyaluronic acid is precisely injected into the area being treated. Unlike wrinkle reducing and dermal filler treatments, Profhilo® stimulates collagen and elastin, attracting water in the deeper layers of the skin. As a stabilised product, the activity on dermal cells will last longer than that of a non-stabilised gel. During this time the stimulation of four different types of collagen and elastin takes place by slow release of hyaluronic acid. The stimulation results in significant tissue improvement. Therefore we cannot say that Profhilo® is a skin booster as it also has a significant tightening / lifting effect on the tissue.
Profhilo treatment is performed in 2 or 3 sessions with a 4 week interval between. You can expect increased firmness, elasticity and overall improved quality of skin with the effects lasting 6 months or more. The longevity depends on the degree of correction required, your age and lifestyle. Maintenance treatments can be prescribed according to your body’s response to treatment.
