about Profhilo body Treatment
Profhilo is an injectable treatment that contains a very high concentration of non-crosslinked hyaluronic acid.
It boosts skin quality, elasticity, texture and hydration.
Some people think of it as the ultimate “injectable moisturiser” but it also works at a cellular level to bio-remodel the skin for a tightening effect over time.

faqs
What is Profhilo Body?
Profhilo is a unique injectable skin booster. It contains one of the highest concentrations of hyaluronic acid on the marker. Hyaluronic acid is a substance naturally found in our skin and tissues which helps to lubricate and moisturise. As we age, our fibroblasts make less hyaluronic acid and so skin can appear lax, dull and dry. Hyaluronic acid is a common ingredient in topical skincare but when applied on the surface of the skin, it is harder for it to work. Profhilo is an injectable form of hyaluronic acid which means it can be placed directly in the skin to give a surge of moisture. It also bio-remodels the skin to encourage new collagen production.
Is Profhilo the same as dermal filler?
No. Profhilo and dermal fillers are both made of hyaluronic acid but with Profhilo, the HA is non-cross linked. This means it acts an intense moisturiser but does not give structure or volume like dermal fillers.
This means that your results will never look “unnatural” because Profhilo is simply improving the health and appearance of your skin.
Where on the body can Profhilo be used?
Profhilo body comes as 3ml syringes and can treat areas such as upper arms, abdomen, knees and decolletage.
How many treatments of Profhilo do I need?
It is recommended to have an initial course of two treatments, approximately 1 month apart. A maintenance single treatment every 4 -6 months is then advised to maintain results.
Is Profhilo painful?
Most people do not need any numbing cream before Profhilo. Some people find it a little stingy during the injection but it is only momentary. Dr Hannah will use different techniques to make the treatment as comfortable as possible.
What does Profhilo treat?
Profhilo will help to improve:
Skin laxity
Dull and dehydrated skin
Fine lines and wrinkles
Tired looking skin
Is there anyone who shouldn’t have Profhilo?
Profhilo is suitable for all skin types Fitzpatrick I – VI (light to dark).
It isn’t suitable for people with clotting/bleeding disorders, pregnant or breast feeding or those who are immunocompromised. Dr Hannah will make a medical assessment and determine your suitability.
How much does Profhilo Body cost?
£375 for a single 3ml treatment/booster, £750 for a course of two. You will receive special Profhilo skin patches and a body cream to take home.
