Frequently Asked Questions

Profhilo is a product created by HA-DERMA, designed to stimulate the body’s own collagen and elastin. Profhilo is not a filler or a muscle relaxant, it is a bio-stimulant. The results are that skin has more glow, less wrinkles, more hydration and improved texture.

1- Consultation– this is to ensure that this treatment is suitable for your concerns and presentation.. Your medical and social history will be discussed in order to ensure your are suitable for treatment. Photographs will also be taken for medical records to record the results of the treatment, don’t worry these don’t go anywhere! For more information regarding consultations click here
2Cleaning: Making sure the skin is free from any bacteria is essential to safe and infection-free treatment. Your skin will be cleaned with a specialised disinfectant. It is useful, therefore to not wear makeup to your appointment
3 Marking of the skin: Specific points are marked on the skin. These are related to the maximum effectiveness for the profhilo.
4- Injection of profhilo: An extremely fine needle is used to inject the profhilo into the lower layers of the skin. This takes about 2-3 minutes. This can be a little uncomfortable, but is manageable.
5- Postoperative instructions: see below.

  • Improvement/ reduction/ eradication of facial wrinkles.
  • Prevention of developing or making existing wrinkles worse.
  • Potential smoother skin
  • More hydration
  • Improved texture to skin.

General risks include:
-Temporary bleeding/bruising
-Mild swelling
-Infection
-Unsatisfactory results.

The needle used to inject profhilo is the finest there is. Most clients say that the treatment feels like a pressure or a stinging sensation.

  • 1 week before the treatment, avoid taking aspirin, ibuprofen, vitamin E and fish oil supplements. These may increase bleeding and bruising. However, you can take paracetamol if needed.
  • If you are taking any prescribed medication, including aspirin, do not stop taking it – consult your practitioner or your GP first.
  • Avoid drinking alcohol 24 hours before your treatment, as this also increases the risk of bruising.

Don’t touch! Straight after the appointment, it is important not to touch the area. The areas will be a little raised and slightly swollen, however, these swellings will reduce rapidly after about 20 min. Touching the skin can increase the risk of infection.
No Makeup! For at least 24 hours. The tiny little points where the Profhilo is injected can get infected. If you must wear make-up, wear mineral make-up instead.

Initial treatment needs to be performed and a following treatment after 4 weeks, this is to maximise the collagen production in the skin. You should start to see results in your skin quality after 6 weeks.

We recommend the maintenance of profhilo treatment as a one off treatment once every six months.

There are few conditions that completely stop an over 18-year-old from receiving toxin treatment. However, it is important to mention to Dr Elder during the consultation if you suffer or have suffered from the following:
-You have any blood disorders
-You are taking any medications which affect blood clotting
-You are taking any medicines
-You have any psychological concerns
