At Nic+Co Aesthetics, we are passionate about helping our clients achieve radiant, youthful skin. One treatment that has gained incredible popularity in recent years is Profhilo, a cutting-edge injectable designed to deeply hydrate the skin and restore its natural glow. But what exactly is Profhilo, and how does it work? In this blog post, we’ll dive into all the details, benefits, and what to expect from this innovative treatment.
What is Profhilo?
Profhilo is an injectable skin treatment that stands out from other fillers or anti-wrinkle injections because it doesn’t just target specific areas of the face or body. Instead, Profhilo spreads across the skin to deeply hydrate and rejuvenate the entire face. It is composed of one of the highest concentrations of hyaluronic acid (HA) on the market, which is a substance naturally found in our skin and responsible for maintaining hydration, elasticity, and firmness.
Unlike traditional dermal fillers that aim to add volume or structure to the skin, Profhilo works by stimulating the production of collagen and elastin. This results in skin that is firmer, smoother, and more youthful in appearance.
How Does Profhilo Work?
The secret behind Profhilo is its unique formulation and method of administration. The treatment consists of two sessions spaced four weeks apart. During each session, a series of small injections are administered into the skin using a special technique known as the BAP (Bio Aesthetic Points) method, which ensures optimal product diffusion.
Once injected, Profhilo’s hyaluronic acid spreads beneath the skin, encouraging hydration and promoting the production of collagen and elastin. Over the next few weeks, patients notice improved skin texture, elasticity, and tone, with a natural-looking radiance.
What Are the Benefits of Profhilo?
Profhilo is rapidly becoming a go-to treatment for those looking to improve their skin’s overall quality without looking “overdone.” Here are some of the key benefits:
1. Hydration Boost: Profhilo provides deep hydration, making it ideal for dry or dehydrated skin.
2. Improved Elasticity: As the treatment stimulates collagen and elastin production, it helps to improve skin elasticity, which diminishes with age.
3. Fine Lines and Wrinkle Reduction: While it is not a traditional anti-wrinkle injection, Profhilo reduces the appearance of fine lines by plumping the skin.
4. Natural-Looking Results: Because Profhilo works with your skin’s natural processes, the results are subtle and natural rather than dramatic.
5. Minimal Downtime: One of the best parts of Profhilo is that there is minimal downtime, so you can return to your daily routine almost immediately after the treatment.
Who is Profhilo For?
Profhilo is an excellent treatment option for individuals looking to improve the texture, hydration, and overall appearance of their skin. It is particularly beneficial for people with:
• Dull, tired-looking skin that needs a moisture boost.
• Mild to moderate skin laxity (sagging or loose skin).
• Fine lines and wrinkles, especially in areas like the cheeks, forehead, and neck.
• Dry or dehydrated skin that lacks radiance.
It can be used on the face, neck, décolletage, and even the hands—areas that are often neglected but show early signs of aging.
What to Expect During a Profhilo Treatment
Profhilo treatments are relatively quick and comfortable, usually taking around 30 minutes. After cleansing the skin, your practitioner will administer a series of injections into specific points on the face or treated area. Most patients describe the experience as mild discomfort rather than pain.
After the treatment, you may notice some slight redness, bruising, or swelling at the injection sites, but this typically resolves within 24 to 48 hours. The full results of Profhilo develop over the course of several weeks, as your skin naturally responds to the hyaluronic acid.
How Long Do the Results Last?
While you may start to see improvement within a few days of your first treatment, the most dramatic changes occur around four weeks after the second session. The results typically last up to six months, depending on the individual’s skin type and lifestyle factors. Many patients choose to have maintenance treatments every six months to keep their skin looking its best.
