Your Profhilo questions answered

What is Profhilo and why is it so popular?

Profhilo is a HA-based injectable that improves hydration, elasticity and overall skin quality with minimal downtime — hence its popularity for natural-looking rejuvenation.

Does Profhilo make you look younger?

It can soften fine lines, improve firmness and boost radiance, which together deliver a fresher, more youthful appearance. Results vary by individual.

Do you still need Botox with Profhilo?

They address different concerns: Profhilo improves skin quality; Botox relaxes dynamic wrinkles. They can be combined depending on goals.

Does one session work?

Many notice benefits after one session, but best results are seen after the second session 2–4 weeks later.

How painful is Profhilo?

Discomfort is usually mild and brief. We use comfort measures as needed.

Is there downtime?

Small bumps/redness may appear for 24–48 hours. Makeup is often fine the next day.

What happens after two weeks?

Expect improved hydration and freshness; texture and elasticity typically continue to improve through weeks 4–8.

Why are two sessions needed?

The first initiates collagen/elastin stimulation; the second consolidates and enhances results for better longevity.

What age is best for Profhilo?

Adults noticing early laxity or textural change — commonly 30s+ — but suitability is assessed individually.

Is Profhilo better than Botox?

They do different jobs; neither replaces the other. We’ll recommend the right combination in consultation.

What is skin hydration?

Hydration refers to water content within the skin. See our guide: Hydration Fundamentals.
