PLEASE NOTE THAT PROFHILO® STRUCTURA IS A NEW TREATMENT FOR 2025 AND NOT YET AVAIALBLE IN CLINIC. WE PLAN TO BE OFFERING IT IN LATE FEBRUARY/EARLY MARCH 2025

What is Profhilo®?

Profhilo® is the first BDDE-free stabilised injectable hyaluronic acid (HA) based product for treating skin laxity. With one of the highest concentrations of HA on the market (64mg/2ml) it not only boosts and hydrates the skin but also remodels the ageing and sagging tissue. This results in a luminous, soft, airbrushed glow and natural look.

What does Profhilo® treat?

Profhilo® is most commonly used for facial areas, but can also effectively be used for rejuvenating the neck, decollete, arms, knees and hands. Profhilo® delivers great results as a treatment on its own or in combination with other aesthetics treatments currently on offer.

How is Profhilo® different to other skin boosters?

As a stabilised product Profhilo® lasts in the skin around 28 days. During this time the stimulation of four different types of collagen and elastin takes place by slow release of HA. The stimulation results in significant tissue improvement. Therefore it is more than simply a skin booster as it also has a significant tightening/lifting effect on the tissue as well. Profhilo® doesn’t need to be massaged and leaves no nodules. Due to its high spreadability, only five injection points on each side of the face are needed, which means patients find the treatment much more comfortable.
To achieve the best long-lasting results, two treatments are required with a four-week interval. Some people may see the results within the first week, but the best outcomes of the treatment will be visible four weeks after the second treatment.

What is Profhilo® Structura?

Profhilo® Structura is a groundbreaking injectable treatment designed to lift, contour, and rejuvenate the facial profile by targeting superficial fat layers. By regenerating and repositioning these fat layers, Profhilo® Structura counteracts the natural flattening of facial angles and tissue descent that occur over time. The result is a more lifted, naturally contoured profile without obvious projections or the appearance of artificial enhancements.

Face Anatomy & The Ageing Process

The movement of fat within compartments, due to gravity, can result in an inferomedial displacement of the overlying skin envelope. This repositioning or shift of fat often leads to increased hollows in the cheeks and to a flattening of facial angles. Consequently, there is a loss of fat volume in the middle andlateral cheek compartments.

What Is The Science?

Profhilo® Structura is uniquely formulated to work harmoniously with superficial fat tissue. Its specific composition and concentration enhance this integration and compatibility.
It is developed using patented NAHYCO® technology, which stabilises a distinct complex of high and low-molecular-weight hyaluronic acid. This thermal process removes the need for the chemical cross-linkers that are commonly required in other hyaluronic acid formulations and fillers, ensuring a purer product. Once injected, Profhilo® Structura activates ageing adipose fat cell receptors, subtly and safely encouraging them to mimic the behaviour of their youth.

What Results Can Be Expected?

Profhilo® Structura is clinically proven to restore superficial fat to its original position, effectively tackling age-related concerns like pronounced facial hollows, skin laxity, and the development of a squarer facial shape resulting from midface fat loss. 95% of patients noticed lasting enhancements in the mid-face area after the first treatment. This improvement was sustained three months later, highlighting the lasting benefits of Profhilo® Structura. Profhilo® Structura is a natural and regenerative option for anyone desiring subtle enhancements without drastically altering their appearance.

How Do Profhilo® And Profhilo® Structura Differ?

Profhilo® is injected into the dermis where it is clinically proven to provide tissue restoration without volumisation. It does this by waking up dormant fibroblast tissue to regenerate collagen and elastin visibly improving the skin’s firmness, texture, and hydration.
Profhilo® Structura, on the other hand, is designed for deeper structural remodeling and is injected into the subcutaneous layers. It is clinically proven to reposition and regenerate the dynamic superficial fat pads located beneath the skin and connective tissue, and above the muscle and deep fat layers. Its advanced compatibility with fat cells helps counteract the flattening of facial angles and tissue descent that naturally occurs over time, resulting in a more lifted, contoured, and rejuvenated facial profile. Both treatments offer unique benefits tailored to different skin concerns and treatment areas, ensuring a comprehensive approach to skin rejuvenation and anti-ageing.
