How does Profhilo® work?

Profhilo® delivers a two-pronged approach with 2 types of hyaluronic acid in one treatment.It contains both low molecular weight hyaluronic acid (L-HA) and high molecular weight hyaluronic acid (H-HA) formulated with unique patented NAHYCO®️ Hybrid Technology.The low molecular weight hyaluronic acid (L-HA) as a hybrid complex is released slowly and hydrates your skin, providing a Hydro effect. The high molecular weight hyaluronic acid (H-HA) provides bio-remodelling of skin tissue in the epidermis, dermis and fat tissue layer of the skin, giving the Lift effect.

This hybrid of hyaluronic acid is thermally and not chemically cross-linked which spreads out and is slowly released over 28 days. During this period, the slow release of hyaluronic acid kickstarts the stimulation of 4 different types of collagen and elastin:

  • type I collagen in keratinocytes

  • type III collagen in keratinocytes

  • type IV collagen in keratinocytes

  • type VII collagen in keratinocytes

This results in lifting and tightening effects, improving the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles without adding volume or changing the shape of your face.

The Profhilo® does not contain additives such as BBDE or Lycodine. As such, there is less risk of lumps as it is highly spreadable, promoting homogeneous scattering and allows absorption in skin tissue, for relatively safer results.

What is the Profhilo® treatment process like?

First, your doctor will mark out the bio aesthetic points (BAP) on your skin where she will administer the injection. BAP is a unique injection technique used for optimal diffusion of the injected product. Only 5 injection points are required per side of the face.Then, topical numbing cream will be applied to your skin. Once the numbing cream is effective, the doctor will carefully inject Profhilo® into the selected bio aesthetic points on your skin.

Due to the minimal injection points, the side effects of the minimally invasive procedure are greatly minimised as there is a lower risk to your blood vessels and nerves.

Common Areas for Profhilo® Treatment:

  • Face
  • Neck
  • Decolletage (Chest)
  • Hands
  • 5. face
