The Benefits
 

Profhilo treatment offers numerous benefits that make it a popular choice for skin rejuvenation. Some key advantages include:

• Stimulated Collagen and Elastin Production: Profhilo stimulates the production of collagen and elastin, essential proteins that provide skin elasticity and firmness.

• Improved Skin Hydration: The treatment helps improve skin hydration, resulting in a plump and radiant complexion.

• Reduced Fine Lines and Wrinkles: Profhilo can reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, leading to a smoother and more youthful-looking skin.

• Quick and Minimally Invasive: Profhilo treatment is quick, minimally invasive, and involves a series of injections that cause minimal discomfort.

Expected Results
 

The results of Profhilo treatment are typically visible after a few weeks, as collagen and elastin production increases. Patients can expect improved skin texture, hydration, and a reduction in the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. The skin appears rejuvenated and glowing.

Fillers can strengthen the creases developing an almost mesh framework beneath the skin and support the point of weakness. We do this by using minimal amounts of filler and in doing so also stimulate your own body to start producing more collagen.
