What is Profhilo skin booster?

One of the highest concentrations of hyaluronic acid on the market, Profhilo® not only boosts and hydrates the skin, but also remodels ageing and sagging tissue. The most common areas of treatment include the face and neck and can also be used for the décolletage and hands to treat skin laxity. The treatment is suitable for men and women as well as offering skin benefits for patients of all ages.

Profhilo is an ultra-pure hyaluronic acid and is precisely injected into the face or neck. Unlike wrinkle reducing and dermal filler treatments, Profhilo® stimulates collagen and elastin, attracting water in the deeper layers of the skin providing a subtle and natural glow, plump and hydration to the skin.

It may be known to the lay-person as an “injectable moisturiser” as the effects are FELT and seen within in the skin. However the stimulation also results in significant tissue improvement and therefore is not just a skin booster, as it also has a significant tightening / lifting effect on the tissue.
