Frequently asked questions about Profhilo treatment

FAQ

• What are the advantages of Profhilo over traditional fillers?

  In contrast to conventional fillers, which specifically add volume to the skin, Profhilo improves the overall skin structure and quality. It hydrates deeply, promotes the production of collagen and elastin and leads to an overall tightening and rejuvenation of the skin.

• Can Profhilo be combined with other treatments?

  Yes, Profhilo can be used in combination with other treatments such as dermal fillers, Botox or laser therapies to achieve comprehensive anti-ageing results.

• How do I prepare for a Profhilo treatment?

  Blood-thinning medication such as aspirin or vitamin E should be discontinued at least two weeks before treatment. It is also important to discuss your medical history with your doctor to rule out possible contraindications.

• Is the Profhilo treatment painful?

  Treatment with Profhilo is minimally invasive and is generally described as less painful. Only five small injections are administered on each side of the face. A local anaesthetic can be administered on request.

• Are there any side effects when using Profhilo?

  As with any injection, slight redness, swelling or bruising may occur. However, these usually subside within a few hours. Allergic reactions are extremely rare, as Profhilo is produced without chemical binders.

• Which areas can be treated with Profhilo?

  In addition to the face, Profhilo can also be used on the neck, neckline, arms and hands. It is particularly effective in treating sagging skin and wrinkles in these areas.

• Who is a Profhilo treatment suitable for?

  Profhilo is ideal for people aged between 30 and 50 who want to combat the first signs of wrinkles and sagging skin. However, it is also suitable for younger people as a preventative measure or for older people to improve the skin’s structure.

• How often do you have to use Profhilo to see results?

  Two treatments four weeks apart are normally sufficient to achieve the best results. A top-up treatment every 6 to 12 months can help to maintain the results in the long term.

• When will we see the first results?

  The first improvements in skin quality can be visible after just a few days. However, the best results are seen around four weeks after the second treatment, when the production of collagen and elastin has been increased.

• How does Profhilo work in detail?

  Profhilo is injected specifically into the upper layers of the skin. The product contains one of the highest concentrations of hyaluronic acid on the market. After injection, Profhilo is distributed in the affected skin area and provides it with intensive moisture. In this way, the biological remodelling process is stimulated. The skin becomes firmer, smoother and more radiant.

• What is Profhilo?

  Profhilo is an innovative anti-ageing treatment consisting of pure hyaluronic acid. It differs from traditional dermal fillers and skin boosters as its primary purpose is not to increase volume but to deeply hydrate and improve skin quality. It stimulates the production of collagen and elastin, resulting in firmer and more youthful skin.

• For whom is Profhilo treatment unsuitable?

  Pregnant or breastfeeding women, people with bleeding disorders or infections at the injection site should not use Profhilo. Individual contraindications should be discussed with your doctor.
