Profhilo

Profhilo is a great starter treatment and is what Dr Vo likes to call an injectable moisturiser Profhilo penetrates the skin deeper, accessing the layers that a topical moisturiser doesn’t reach.

Numbing cream can be applied to your skin for 10-15 minutes before treatment  on request- please indicate this upon booking your appointment

You will have a series of 5 injections on each side of the face, covering your mid and lower face.

You will not be treated on your forehead, nose, and under eyes – however, there will be a Profhilo under eyes result)

You will feel a stinging sensation on injection, and if you are concerned about the pain, we advise that as well as having the numbing cream you take two paracetamol tablets before your appointment providing you have no contraindications.

Immediately after, there will be small lumps on the face where the profile product has been injected; they will look like bee-stings and go down after around 30 minutes but can persist for up to 24 hours.

We advise you do not put any products (including makeup) over the area treated for at least 6 hours.

Aftercare advice will be provided

You will need to book a second dose in 4 weeks

You may start to see a gradual improvement in the skin over those four weeks, but it is usually not until the second dose the client will see the result.
