Profhilo
Profhilo is a multi-award-winning treatment consisting of one of the highest concentrations of hyaluronic acid on the market. It is injected into the skin across 10 strategic points in a treatment area, such as the face or neck. It is made with their patented NAHYCO technology that stabilises it, enabling the hyaluronic acid to work for longer. It spreads throughout the skin and stimulates skin cell receptors to improve skin laxity and hydration more effectively. The basis of how Profhilo works is that the product has a lower viscosity than other injectable products, enabling it to spread itself evenly throughout the underlying tissues, slowly releasing hyaluronic acid and stimulating four different types of collagen and elastin as it does so. The result is a more radiant, smoother, firmer and lifted complexion. After a course of treatments, the skin tissue is significantly improved, so it is superior to skin boosters on the market as it falls in the category of a skin bio-remodeller.
Profhilo is applied using the Bio Aesthetics Points (BAP) technique. This approach administers a series of 5 injections at specific points on each side of the face, including along the cheekbones, under the eyes and along the jawline. These places are specifically selected to maximise the distribution of Profhilo throughout the face. When treating the neck, the 10 injection points target neck lines and loose, sagging skin, which are common concerns that patients wish to treat. Patients often complain of looking tired due to dull and sagging skin, wrinkles and facial volume loss. Through the use of Profhilo, the skin will become firmer, naturally fuller, smoother and more radiant to create an overall fresher-looking complexion.
It is important not to confuse Profhilo with fillers as they work in very different ways. Fillers help to revolumise areas of the facial tissues under the skin where volume has been lost through the process of ageing, whereas Profhilo helps to optimise the actual skin layer by tightening it over time and reducing the appearance of fine lines which cannot be targeted by filler. Although it does not volumise like a filler, it does plump the skin. Profhilo strengthens the skin’s internal structure and increases tissue density by producing new collagen and elastin. After treatment, clinical data has shown improvements in skin texture, elasticity and hydration with a tightening effect.
A treatment course of Profhilo produces beneficial results for people who are looking to increase collagen, elastin, and hydration in their skin and revitalise their appearance in a minimally invasive way. To achieve the best results, it is recommended that a course of 2 – 3 sessions be carried out (depending on the severity of concerns) approximately 4 weeks apart.

Frequently asked questions
Am I suitable for this treatment?
Profhilo is suitable for most people who are concerned that their appearance is starting to look tired. Common conditions that Profhilo can improve include tired-looking skin, fine lines and wrinkles, and sagging or crepey skin.
Is this treatment safe?
Profhilo administers a high concentration of hyaluronic acid to the skin across 10 quick injection points. This substance is found naturally in the skin and helps to keep the complexion smooth and hydrated. Profhilo is considered a safe product that produces noticeably beneficial results for many patients.
Is this treatment painful?
Numbing cream is applied for 15 minutes beforehand so injections are usually minimally painful. There are only 10 injection points distributing the 2ml syringe of product, so the treatment is relatively quick. There is usually no discomfort or pain after the injections are completed.
Are there any side effects or risks?
Patients often experience side effects similar to those of other injectable treatments, including redness and bruising. However, this is less common with Profhilo. Small pinkish lumps may be visible immediately after the treatment, and these are usually gone by the following day. During the consultation, Dr Nandi will go through any side effects and risks with you.
What downtime should I expect?
As side effects are minor, Profhilo will likely not prevent you from continuing with your day as normal. If you have any concerns, you can contact the clinic at any time and arrange to speak with Dr Nandi.

Dr Rita Nandi is very professional and explains each step of the procedure, she takes time to reassure you if it is a first time having a filler treatment, and answers any questions you may have. She is a very patient doctor who takes time and looks after her clients before and after the procedure, unless other clinics! I had fillers on my cheekbones and my chin and the result is very natural and beautiful and it was not painful at all. I will definitely have another treatment soon with Dr Nandi for my jawline.

I’m very glad to say that Dr Nandi delivered beyond my expectations. Not only does Dr Nandi have a friendly & kind personality, her knowledge is fantastic and cohesive, she thoroughly talked me through Bruxism, the implications and side effects, whilst taking the time to understand my journey with Bruxism. During the Botox procedure, Dr Nandi talked me thorough every step of the way to ensure I knew what was happening whilst allowing me to experience a pain free procedure. I find Dr Nandi’s attentiveness and naturally empathetic & caring approach towards her clients very nice and thoughtful to experience. All in all, I wholeheartedly recommend Dr Nandi.
Israt R Chow
I had my lips filled with Dr Nandi last month and honestly I couldn’t have hoped for a more amazing first filler experience. I’ve never had anything like this done before and I was extremely nervous, but Dr Rita made me feel unbelievably relaxed and taken care of. She saw to my every want and need and covered every base possible to ensure my health was first priority, and then the results of the procedure were incredible! I never knew my lips could look so good!! They look so natural no one even suspects I have filler, which is exactly what I wanted.
I look forward to seeing her again for every treatment of this type I have in the future. 10000% would recommend!!!
