What is Profhilo
This product is a combination of two different hyaluronic acid molecules that are connected to form a hybrid molecule using a special process without the addition of a stabilizer. The advantage is that the product remains in the skin tissue about 30 times longer than previously offered preparations of non-cross-linked hyaluronic acid.
Thus, the Profhilo treatment is very well tolerated and effective in the tissue long enough to provide tired, sagging, and moisture-deprived skin with freshness from the inside out, achieving a visible anti-aging effect. The Profhilo treatment not only provides an immediate freshness boost, but also stimulates the skin’s collagen synthesis.
Profhilo thus has a dual effect and contributes to a long-term improvement of skin structure and sustainable facial rejuvenation. This is referred to as bio-remodeling. On one hand, it immediately gives a fresh appearance with youthful radiance, because the preparation has an immediate effect due to the exceptionally high HA concentrations. On the other hand, your entire facial skin also benefits from the long-term stimulation of connective tissue cells, which sustainably produce more collagen and elastin, resulting in long-term skin rejuvenation.
The effect of the Profhilo treatment is visible immediately after administration, but intensifies even more in the following days. At the same time, you are immediately socially presentable after the treatment and can return to your usual daily routine. Only sauna, solarium, or sunbathing should be avoided for a few days.
Profhilo is highly concentrated (64mg hyaluronic acid per 2ml) and is injected using a special injection technique with ultra-thin, very fine needles. The special feature is that due to the specific structure of the product, injection at only five defined injection points per half of the face is necessary to flood the entire face with the highly concentrated gel. This is referred to as the BAP technique, where BAP stands for Bio Aesthetic Points. In the hours and days after the treatment with Profhilo, the injected hyaluronic acid distributes itself under the skin and provides the entire facial skin with a moisture boost. This is also what makes the product so revolutionary: through only 5 injections per half of the face, the whole face benefits from the moisture-binding effect, and a continuous skin rejuvenation and improvement of skin texture occurs.
For optimal results, two applications at an interval of 4 weeks are recommended. A third can possibly be added after eight weeks, depending on the skin condition. To maintain the achieved effect, I recommend repeating the treatment cycle in about 6 months.

Frequently Asked Questions about Profhilo (FAQ)
Who is the Profhilo treatment particularly suitable for?
The Profhilo treatment is particularly suitable for people who desire an improvement in skin quality with stimulation of elastin and collagen production, and who simultaneously do not want any change in facial contour.
Therefore, Profhilo is also ideal for patients who want an anti-aging treatment but absolutely do not want anyone in their surroundings to notice that they have had something done.
When are the results of the Profhilo treatment visible?
The special thing about the Profhilo treatment is that the results are visible just a few days after the treatment (immediate effect) because the skin is immediately supplied with moisture due to the high concentration of hyaluronic acid in the product, making it look plumper and fresher. On the other hand, there is also a long-term effect, as the fibroblasts in the tissue are stimulated to produce new hyaluronic acid, as well as collagen and elastin. Collagen production continues for months after the treatment (long-term effect).
Is the Profhilo treatment painful?
Pain perception is always individual. Profhilo is injected into the skin tissue with very fine needles. Most patients say that the injections are barely noticeable.
How does the Profhilo treatment work?
Profhilo is administered in tiny amounts at specific points on the face (Bio Aesthetic Points). No anesthesia is necessary. The treatment only takes a few minutes. Afterwards, the skin is briefly cooled. Immediately after the treatment, you can return to your normal daily routine and social activities.
How many Profhilo treatments do I need?
For optimal results, two treatments at an interval of 4 weeks are recommended. After that, the effect lasts up to half a year.
What are Bio Aesthetic Points?
Bio Aesthetic Points are the defined points on the face where Profhilo is injected. From there, it spreads throughout the entire face, improving moisture-depleted skin and stimulating collagen production everywhere. This is also known as the BAP technique.
Can Profhilo also make deep wrinkles disappear?
No. Since Profhilo has no lasting volume effect, it is not the right choice for treating deep facial wrinkles. It provides the skin with moisture and promotes the production of connective tissue. After the treatment, your skin looks fresher and plumper and has more natural glow, without changing your facial features.
Is Profhilo well-tolerated?
Profhilo is pure hyaluronic acid and contains no additives. The composition of the product is unique because stabilizers have been omitted. This makes the treatment very well-tolerated.
What can't Profhilo do?
Profhilo is an excellent freshness boost based on hyaluronic acid that also stimulates collagen production. However, it does not create lasting volume in the face. For this, a classic filler treatment is the right choice. Profhilo also cannot improve expression lines. In this case, Botox is more recommended.
Who should not undergo a Profhilo treatment?
Even though Profhilo is pure hyaluronic acid and contains no additives, treatment during pregnancy or breastfeeding is not recommended.
Acute or chronic inflammations in the area to be treated or immunosuppression are also contraindications.
Is Profhilo the same as a filler?
No. Both classic fillers and Profhilo consist of hyaluronic acid. However, the task of fillers is to build up lost or never-existing volume. For example, you can make the lips a little fuller or accentuate the cheekbones with an injection of hyaluronic acid fillers. Profhilo, on the other hand, also consists of hyaluronic acid, but it does not create lasting volume in the face. It only increases the moisture content of the skin and stimulates the body’s own elastin and collagen production by ‘waking up’ the connective tissue cells of the skin. The facial features remain completely unchanged; only the skin quality improves.
Can Profhilo only be used on the face?
No, Profhilo can also be used to treat the neck, décolleté, and hands. Here too, it leads to an improvement in skin quality.
What does bio-remodeling mean in relation to Profhilo?
Bio-remodeling means that Profhilo not only increases the hyaluronic acid content in the skin but also causes a long-term increase in the production of collagen and elastin, thus having a long-term effect on the aging process after two applications about four weeks apart.
