Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about Profhilo.

Profhilo is an injectable hyaluronic acid biostimulator that hydrates deep tissue and stimulates four collagen types. It disperses under the skin to remodel tissue, improving laxity, texture, and luminosity over several weeks with minimal downtime.

Ideal clients are those noticing early to moderate skin laxity, dehydration, or texture concerns on face, neck, or hands. Suitable for most skin types; a consultation will determine if Profhilo alone or combined therapies are best.

Typically two initial treatments spaced four weeks apart are recommended, with maintenance every six to twelve months depending on age and lifestyle. Most patients notice improved hydration and firmness within weeks, with progressive remodeling over months.

Procedures are minimally uncomfortable; topical numbing may be used. Expect mild swelling, redness, or tiny bruises for a few days. Most clients return to normal activities immediately, with minimal social downtime required.

Side effects are generally mild and temporary—redness, swelling, tenderness, or small bruises. Serious reactions are rare when performed by trained professionals. Disclose medical history to your clinician to minimize risk and ensure safe treatment.

Avoid blood-thinning medications, alcohol, and intense exercise 24-48 hours before and after treatment. Keep the area clean, avoid facial massages for a week, and follow clinic-specific instructions. Report unusual pain, prolonged redness, or signs of infection immediately.
