Profhilo

Profhilo is a type of injectable treatment that uses hyaluronic acid to stimulate collagen and elastin production in the skin. It works by providing deep hydration to the skin and promoting the production of new collagen and elastin fibers, which can help to improve the overall texture, tone, and elasticity of the skin.

In aesthetic medicine, Profhilo is used to address a variety of concerns, including fine lines and wrinkles, dry and dull skin, and loss of skin firmness and elasticity. Unlike traditional dermal fillers, Profhilo is not designed to add volume to the skin, but rather to improve skin quality and restore a more youthful appearance.

The effects of Profhilo are typically visible within a few weeks of treatment, with optimal results appearing after two to three sessions spaced four weeks apart. The duration of the effects of Profhilo can vary, with most patients experiencing improvement in skin quality and hydration for up to six months or longer.

Like any cosmetic treatment, there are potential side effects associated with Profhilo injections, including redness, swelling, bruising, and tenderness at the injection site. These side effects are usually mild and temporary, resolving within a few days to a week.

In medical settings, Profhilo can also be used to treat conditions such as facial lipoatrophy and to improve the appearance of scars.
