Profhilo Injection: Stop Time and Restore Your Skin’s Youth

Are you bothered by the fine lines and wrinkles that have started to appear on your skin at the age of 30? Are you looking for ways to treat and get rid of them? What about a solution that will help delay the signs of aging, replacing them with fresher, more youthful skin?

To feel more satisfied with your appearance and skin, you must first take care of it and follow what the world of cosmetics offers from surgical & non-surgical procedures. This way, you will reign on the throne of beauty and youth.

You are now about to learn about one of the most prominent advancements in non-surgical cosmetic procedures: Profhilo injections for the face and body. This treatment focuses on enhancing radiance, tightening the skin, and addressing various skin issues.  

What is the Profhilo Injection? 

Profhilo injection is a procedure that caused a revolution in treating wrinkles. It contains hyaluronic acid, which is a shining star in the world of cosmetics due to its powerful formulation that enhances skin hydration and restores its natural radiance. It also includes amino acids, vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants that help activate the growth of new skin cells.

Typically, Profhilo is injected at 5-10 spaced points in the face beneath the skin’s surface, as well as in areas where signs of aging appear, such as the neck, hands, arms, chest, and abdomen. The Profhilo technique is characterized by its ability to naturally tighten the skin and treat fine lines.

Mechanism of Action of Profhilo Injection

Profhilo injections work by enhancing the metabolism in the injected area, thereby stimulating the production of both elastin & collagen and activating blood vessels that help treat damaged skin and replace it with new skin over time.

To simplify the mechanism of action of Profhilo injections, they are somewhat similar to the action of silicone, but the difference is that Profhilo is a moisturizer injected into the skin rather than a filler like silicone. It retains moisture within the skin and promotes collagen production. Many doctors and practitioners prefer it in medical clinics due to its even distribution in areas, especially sensitive ones that are difficult to treat with traditional fillers, such as the forehead and neck.

Moreover, Profhilo contains a high concentration of hyaluronic acid, which allows it to interact quickly with the surrounding tissues upon injection, providing immediate hydration.

What to Know Before Profhilo Injection?

The procedure for Profhilo injections does not require extensive instructions before the treatment; however, it is important to avoid alcohol and smoking prior to the session, as well as to refrain from using aspirin or anti-inflammatory medications for 24 hours before the procedure.

How Many Sessions Are Required and When Do Results Appear?

The treatment with Profhilo injections typically lasts about 28 days, during which the skin brightening and tightening results begin to appear. Results may show slightly earlier, within 2-4 weeks.

You may also notice immediate results after the first session, especially in enhancing skin hydration which can be easily noticed. Following this, the advanced phase of results begins, which works on boosting collagen and elastin production, leading to plumper and smoother skin. The final results may take a few months to fully manifest, depending on the condition of the skin, the age of the patient, and their facial structure. 

How Long Do the Treatment’s Results Last? 

The Profhilo injections results typically last for 6 months and it is recommended to repeat the treatment every 4-6 months to maintain the results for as long as possible. It is also advised to maintain a daily skin care routine which significantly supports the continuity of results.

While Profhilo injections are beneficial for many candidates, applying them to certain groups may lead to unnecessary risks & complications, such as:

  2. Individuals with infectious or acute active diseases.
  3. Those suffering from chronic kidney disease or heart conditions.
  4. People with blood clotting disorders.

Profhilo Injections Complications 

Typically, patients do not experience serious complications after receiving Profhilo injections, as the side effects are generally mild, such as:

  1. Mild pain during the procedure (needle prick).
  2. Redness at the injection site.
  3. Swelling & bruising.
  4. Allergic reactions to the components of the injection.
  5. Bacterial infection.
  6. Appearance of small bumps due to the formation of hyaluronic acid, which usually disappear quickly.
  7. Itching and discomfort that may last for a few days.
  8. Nerve damage in rare cases.

What to Expect After the Profhilo injection? 

After receiving Profhilo injections from a doctor or qualified practitioner, you may need to follow some simple instructions, such as avoiding touching your face or the injected area and staying away from cosmetics for a few days after the procedure. It is also essential to avoid strong skin cleansers, heavy products, and exfoliants.

You should also refrain from massages & strenuous exercise and heat sources like hot baths & saunas. It is also crucial to maintain skin cleanliness, using sunscreen, and drinking plenty of water.

Is Profhilo the Same as Botox & Filler? 

No, each has its specific use; while the procedures may have similar results, their mechanisms of action differ. 

Botox is injected into the muscle to relax it and inhibit movement, thereby reducing wrinkles and it is typically used in the upper part of the face, such as the forehead.

Fillers on the other hand work by adding volume, which is somewhat similar to Profhilo injections; however, their mechanisms differ, and the components of the injections vary, leading to different complications and results in many cases.

Profhilo injections work beneath the skin layers to stimulate collagen & elastin production, hydrate the skin, and thus achieve a more radiant and glowing appearance.

Finally, with Profhilo injections, you can turn back time! Yes… the earlier you start, the more Profhilo can help treat issues like wrinkles, fine lines, and dark circles. However, if you are dealing with deep-set wrinkles that have developed over time, Profhilo may not be the desired procedure.
