About Profhilo
Profhilo is a specific hyaluronic acid filler that stimulates the body to produce it’s own HA as well as stimulating collagen thus skin tightening.
The Problem
The lower third of the face tends to show more wrinkles & sagging due to the ageing phenomenon and eventually leads to ‘jowl formation’. The whole face loses plumpness starting from as young as 30 especially when we spend a lot of our lives dehydrated.
Necks are often an area that we forget about when having treatments. The neck responds superbly to Profhilo and is Dr Ros’ absolute ‘go to’ treatment for the neck. You can also add in Aliaxin SR to the neck protocol with even better results if needed.
How It Works
2 mls of Profhilo are injected per treatment on the face or neck. There are 5 specific points per side of the face or neck. A course of 3 treatments a month apart are recommended. Maintenance is one treatment every 4-6 months.
The injection points are not massaged hence there will be little swellings like bee stings that usually subside within 24-48 hrs but are really hardly visible. Occasionally there may be little bruises.
