Profhilo is a true revolutionary “Game Changer” in the field of aesthetic medicine. Until now, we had to use various products and undergo various treatments to restore lost volume, elasticity and glow to the skin.
Finally, now we have a product that brings them all together.
Profhilo is a unique “3 in 1” product – it is not a filler, it is not mesotherapy, nor is it a skin booster, but it acts as a combination of three, thus improving the hydration, elasticity and skin tone. Profhilo improves skin quality dramatically even in challenging areas like neck and décolletage.
Several awards, including the Aesthetic Awards for the most innovative treatment in the field of aesthetic medicine, prove that it is truly a top-notch treatment.
What is Profhilo?
Profhilo is a fantastic aesthetic treatment for people with visible signs of skin ageing. It has one of the highest concentrations of hyaluronic acid on the market (64mg / 2ml). It is a bio-remodelling treatment which:
- Improves skin elasticity
- Tightens the skin
- Improves skin tone and texture
- Improves skin hydration
- Restores skin glow
Profhilo is made of a 100% hyaluronic acid without any binding agents, making it one of the safest products in aesthetic medicine.
It consists of a combination of a low and high molecular weight hyaluronic acid. Low molecular weight hyaluronic acid acts especially on the superficial layers of the skin and moisturizes the skin, while high molecular weight hyaluronic acid has a supportive effect on skin structure, resulting in a lifting effect and tightening of the skin.
How does Profhilo work?
Profhilo, although composed of hyaluronic acid such as dermal fillers, does not add volume to the application area. It slowly spreads in the skin around the injection site and stimulates fibroblasts to produce new collagen and elastin, which slowly fill cracks and gaps in deeper layers of the skin.
Once injected, Profhilo slowly spreads in the skin over a period of 4 weeks. It stimulates 4 different types of collagen and elastin, resulting in a dramatic improvement in the skin quality and hydration, especially in the face and neck area.
Due to its high spread potential, Profhilo is injected superficially into several aesthetic points in the treatment areas. Patients find treatment to be very comfortable and pain-free.
Profhilo is an amazing treatment for people over 30 years of age especially for the face, neck, décolletage and arms. You can expect increased tightness, elasticity and an overall skin quality improvement with results lasting up to six months.

What is the difference between Profhilo and dermal fillers?
Compared to dermal fillers, Profhilo does not replenish volume but enhances stem cell reproduction. Once injected, it slowly spreads in the skin and stimulates the production of 4 types of collagen.
The Profhilo effect leads to remodelling of the extracellular matrix in terms of elasticity and support, promoting and maintaining the viability of fibroblasts, keratinocytes and adipocytes.
How does the Profhilo treatment look like?
Prior to the treatment, you will have a consultation with Dr Matic during which you will discuss your expectations and go through all the aspects of the procedure.
Profhilo comes in a 2ml syringe and is injected superficially under the skin using BAP (Bio Aesthetic Points) technique – 5 specific points on each side of the treated area (face, neck…)
Are there any side effects?
Redness or swelling may occur at the injection site immediately after the treatment and subside within 24 hours.
How many treatments do I need?
In order to achieve the best possible results, 4ml in total are required. 2ml in the initial treatment and further 2ml of Profhilo one month after the first treatment.
People who have very pronounced signs of skin ageing, may require more than 2 treatments.
Maintenance treatment is recommended 6 months after the second treatment.
What can I expect after the treatment?
You can expect increased firmness, elasticity, tone and generally better skin quality that last up to 6 months.
It is important to emphasize that the results are individual and depend on your skin type, age and lifestyle.
When will I see the first results?
The first results can be seen 3-4 weeks after the first treatment, while the best results are seen 4 weeks after the second treatment.
How long do the results last for?
The results usually last up to 6 months and it is recommended to repeat the treatment 6 months after the second Profhilo treatment.
How long do I need to be off work after the treatment?
Profhilo does not require any recovery time. You are free to continue your usual activities immediately after the treatment.
