Profhilo vs. Traditional Fillers: Understanding the Differences
Profhilo and traditional dermal fillers are both made from hyaluronic acid, and that is where the similarity ends. Profhilo is a bio-remodelling…
Profhilo Treatment Explained
01How Profhilo Works: The Science of Bio-Remodelling
Profhilo works through a biological process called bio-remodelling. This goes far beyond hydration, it actively stimulates four different types of collagen and elastin, creating a scaffold that supports skin structure and function.
As the product spreads under the skin, it triggers fibroblast activity, encourages tissue regeneration, and enhances dermal quality. These effects build gradually, with optimal results seen several weeks after treatment. Skin becomes:
Firmer and more elastic
Hydrated from within
Smoother in texture
Naturally more luminous
The process continues long after the injections are complete, offering ongoing improvement in skin health, resilience, and visible radiance.
02Where Profhilo Can Be Used
Profhilo is highly versatile and suitable for multiple areas that show signs of ageing or reduced skin quality. Dr Harry uses advanced techniques to tailor the treatment to each zone.
Face
The face is the most common area treated with Profhilo. It helps address fine lines, crepey skin, dull tone, and mild laxity, particularly in areas such as the cheeks, lower face, and jawline. Dr Harry uses a specialised injection method that ensures even distribution for optimal bio-remodelling.
Neck and Décolletage
These delicate areas are often the first to show signs of ageing due to thinner skin and sun exposure. Profhilo helps to tighten, smooth, and hydrate the neck and chest area without the need for lasers or surgery.
Hands
Ageing hands can benefit significantly from Profhilo. It improves thin, dry, or crepey skin, restoring a more youthful texture and suppleness. This is especially effective for patients seeking natural hand rejuvenation.
03Treatment Process and What to Expect
Profhilo is typically delivered as a course of two treatments, spaced four weeks apart. This phased approach allows the skin to respond biologically over time, producing more sustained and natural-looking results.
After the initial course, most patients will benefit from maintenance treatments every six to twelve months, depending on skin needs and ageing patterns.
Dr Harry provides a full consultation to determine the best schedule for you, factoring in skin condition, lifestyle, and other aesthetic goals. Each treatment is quick, with minimal discomfort and no downtime.
04Injection Techniques and Advanced Methodology
Profhilo is injected using a technique known as Bio-Aesthetic Points (BAP). These are specific anatomical sites that allow the product to diffuse evenly through the dermal layers, achieving optimal remodelling with minimal injections.
Dr Harry’s training in facial anatomy and injection science ensures each point is delivered with accuracy, safety, and minimal trauma to surrounding tissue. This advanced approach also:
Minimises swelling and bruising
Ensures maximum product efficacy
Supports consistent results across all treatment areas
In addition to the standard BAP technique, Dr Harry may adapt injection points based on individual facial structures and skin thickness, providing a truly bespoke treatment.
05Skin Benefits of Profhilo Treatment
Deep Hydration
Profhilo delivers exceptional hydration to the skin, improving both superficial and deep-layer moisture retention. Patients often notice a dewy, plumper look even within the first week.
Improved Elasticity and Firmness
Over time, the stimulation of collagen and elastin helps skin to tighten and regain its natural bounce, softening fine lines and lifting sagging areas without adding artificial volume.
Smoother Texture and Radiance
As the skin structure strengthens, texture becomes more refined. Profhilo creates a smoother surface, reduces crepey skin, and enhances overall skin glow.
06Combination Treatments and Integrated Planning
Profhilo works beautifully on its own, but it also pairs exceptionally well with other treatments. Dr Harry often incorporates Profhilo into larger treatment plans that may include:
Anti-wrinkle injections for expression lines
Dermal fillers for structural enhancement
Skin boosters for hydration layering
Laser or RF treatments for pigmentation or tightening
By integrating Profhilo into a wider aesthetic strategy, Dr Harry can help patients achieve results that are not only natural, but comprehensive and long-lasting.
The timing and sequencing of Profhilo alongside other treatments is essential. With his medical and aesthetic expertise, Dr Harry ensures each step is optimally coordinated for maximum benefit and minimal overlap.
07Is Profhilo Right for You?
Profhilo is ideal for anyone noticing early signs of ageing or reduced skin quality. You may be a good candidate if you:
Have dull, dehydrated, or crepey skin
Are seeing fine lines and a loss of elasticity
Want natural results without changing your facial structure
Are seeking a regenerative, preventative anti-ageing approach
Because Profhilo works with your own biology, it’s suitable for a wide age range and skin types. Dr Harry will assess your skin health and aesthetic goals before confirming if it’s the right treatment for you.
