What is Profhilo Treatment?

Skin boosters are a category of injectable treatments designed to improve skin quality rather than alter facial shape or expression. Unlike fillers, which add volume, or botulinum toxin, which relaxes muscles, skin boosters like Profhilo work by deeply hydrating and rejuvenating the skin from within.
Profhilo stands out as one of the most advanced options available. It contains pure hyaluronic acid and is especially effective for skin that’s starting to show signs of ageing — dryness, dullness, and loss of firmness.
This gentle, regenerative treatment is an ideal choice for anyone seeking natural-looking results, whether as a standalone option or alongside other aesthetic treatments.

 

How Does Profhilo Work?

Profhilo Skin Booster
Profhilo works with your skin, not against it. Its key ingredient, hyaluronic acid, is a naturally occurring substance in the body that keeps your skin hydrated and plump. But as we age, our natural levels drop, leading to dryness, fine lines, and loss of elasticity.
Rather than simply adding volume, Profhilo replenishes your skin’s hyaluronic acid reserves and stimulates the production of collagen and elastin — the essential proteins responsible for keeping your skin firm, smooth, and supple.
This dual action kick-starts a process called bio-remodelling. Over time, you’ll notice improved hydration, a fresher glow, and visibly firmer, tighter skin — all without altering your natural features or expressions.

 

What Does Profhilo Treatment Do for Your Skin?

While many treatments focus on targeting specific lines or restoring lost volume, Profhilo takes a different approach. It works beneath the surface to improve your skin’s overall quality, making it healthier, smoother, and more radiant — without changing your facial structure.

Here’s what you can expect:

  • Intensive Hydration: Profhilo spreads evenly beneath the skin, delivering long-lasting moisture. You’ll notice smoother, plumper skin with reduced dryness.
  • Improved Elasticity: By stimulating collagen and elastin production, your skin will feel firmer and more resilient. Over time, expect a lifted, tighter look, especially in areas prone to sagging.
  • Smoother Texture: Fine lines and crepey areas become softer and more refined, leaving your skin feeling incredibly smooth to the touch.
  • Brighter, Even Tone: Your skin will appear fresher and more luminous, with a natural, healthy glow. Dullness will fade, and your complexion will brighten.
  • Stronger Skin Structure: Profhilo boosts the inner support of your skin, providing a stronger, more youthful foundation that feels firmer.

It’s this subtle yet effective transformation that makes Profhilo a favourite for those wanting visible results, without looking like they’ve had ‘work done.’

How Does Prophilo Differ from the Hyaluronic Acid Used in Traditional Dermal Fillers?

Although Profhilo and dermal fillers both contain hyaluronic acid, they work in very different ways.
Traditional fillers are designed to add volume or enhance facial contours, like plumping the lips or lifting the cheeks. Profhilo, on the other hand, isn’t about adding structure. Instead, it focuses on improving the skin itself.
What sets Profhilo apart is its unique formulation of both high and low molecular weight hyaluronic acid. This allows it to:
Spread evenly beneath the skin (rather than staying in one spot like a filler)
Deliver deep hydration across a wider area
Stimulate collagen and elastin production to firm and rejuvenate the skin naturally
The result is healthier, more youthful-looking skin, without any change to your natural facial features.

 

What Areas Can Profhilo Treat?

While Profhilo is best known for facial rejuvenation, its benefits go far beyond the face. This injectable skin booster can be used on multiple areas that often show early signs of ageing but don’t always get the attention they deserve.

Some of the most popular treatment areas include:

Face – for an overall boost in hydration, elasticity, and glow
Neck – to tighten crepey skin and reduce fine lines
Décolletage – to improve skin texture and firmness
Hands – often one of the first areas to show ageing
Arms and knees – for restoring smoother, more youthful-looking skin.

Profhilo offers a subtle yet powerful refresh across these zones, making it a truly versatile option in non-surgical skin rejuvenation.

 

What Should You Expect During a Profhilo Treatment?

Profhilo is a quick, straightforward treatment designed to be as comfortable as possible. Using very fine needles, small amounts of product are injected just beneath the surface of the skin at precise points. For the face, this typically involves five specific injection sites on each side—around the cheek, jawline, and lower face—taking just a few seconds per injection.

You’ll be in expert hands at Tay Medispa, where our award-winning team ensures a calm and professional environment from consultation to aftercare.

Is Profhilo Painful or Uncomfortable?

Profhilo is generally well-tolerated, even by those new to injectables. The needle used is very fine, so most people find the injections themselves quite manageable. The product may cause a brief stinging sensation as it’s administered, but each injection takes only seconds, and the discomfort fades quickly.

At Tay Medispa, we use gentle distraction techniques to make the experience as smooth and comfortable as possible, ensuring even the most sensitive clients feel at ease.

 

What Results Can You Expect from Profhilo?

Profhilo delivers a subtle yet transformative boost to your skin. After the full treatment course, most clients notice a significant improvement in skin hydration, texture, and tone. The results build gradually over weeks, revealing a fresh, revitalised appearance that still feels completely like you.

Profhilo supports your skin’s own ability to regenerate collagen and elastin, leading to:

  • Deep hydration and a visible plumping effect
  • Increased elasticity and improved firmness
  • Lifting and soft tissue remodelling
  • Subtle contouring and redefinition
  • Smoother texture and an overall healthier glow

This treatment isn’t about transformation—it’s about restoration. A more radiant, refreshed you.

 

 

How Soon Will You See Profhilo Results?

Profhilo treatment

Many clients begin to notice a soft, healthy glow within 1–2 weeks of their first Profhilo session. This early improvement is thanks to the intense hydration delivered by hyaluronic acid, which gets to work quickly at the skin’s surface.

But Profhilo’s real magic happens deeper down. Over the next 4–6 weeks, it stimulates your skin to produce more Collagen and Elastin—proteins essential for firmness and elasticity. This natural process, known as bio-remodelling, takes time, but the results are well worth the wait.

By week 6, most people see visible improvements in:

  • Skin texture and tone
  • Firmness and elasticity
  • Overall radiance and hydration

Results may vary depending on your skin’s condition, but the rejuvenating effects become more noticeable with each passing week.

 

How Many Profhilo Sessions Do You Need?

At Tay Medispa, we recommend two Profhilo treatments for optimum results, following a full, complimentary consultation. These sessions are typically spaced four weeks apart to allow the product to fully integrate and activate collagen and elastin production.
A third treatment can be added for skin that is more depleted in collagen or needs a more intensive boost. Our Skin Experts will guide you through a personalised plan based on your skin’s condition and goals.

How Long Do Profhilo Results Typically Last?

Profhilo results usually last around six months, but this can vary depending on individual factors such as age, skin type, and lifestyle. Some clients continue to notice improvements even nine months or more after treatment.

 

Are There Any Potential Side Effects You Should Know About?

Profhilo is generally very well tolerated, with a low risk of side effects. However, as with any injectable treatment, some mild reactions can occur.

These may include:

  • Redness, swelling, or tenderness at the injection site
    Small lumps where the product was injected (usually settle within 24 hours)
  • Minor bruising, depending on skin sensitivity
  • A temporary warming or itching sensation as the product disperses

These effects are typically short-lived and resolve on their own within a few hours to a couple of days. You can return to your normal activities immediately after the procedure.

At Tay Medispa, we take every precaution to ensure your comfort and safety during treatment. We will also provide full aftercare guidance and a complimentary review if you’d like one.

 

What Shouldn’t You Do After Profhilo?

One of the key advantages of Profhilo is that there’s virtually no downtime. Most patients can resume their normal routines straight away. However, there are a few simple aftercare steps to follow to ensure the best possible results and minimise any risk of irritation or bruising:

  • Avoid touching the treated area or applying makeup for at least 12 hours
  • Refrain from vigorous exercise for 48 hours
  • Steer clear of alcohol and aspirin (or other anti-inflammatories) for 12–48 hours
  • Avoid sunbathing, saunas, steam rooms, and extreme cold for up to 14 days

At Tay Medispa, we’ll provide you with full aftercare instructions tailored to your needs, and you’re always welcome to return for a complimentary review if needed.

 

Who Are the Best Candidates for Profhilo Treatments?

Consultation

Profhilo is a versatile treatment, suitable for a wide range of individuals. It’s especially beneficial for those noticing the early signs of ageing, such as dullness, loss of firmness, or dehydration—and for anyone whose skin has started to lose its natural elasticity and glow.
While it’s particularly popular among those in their 30s, 40s, and beyond, younger individuals also turn to Profhilo as a preventative measure to slow down the visible signs of ageing.
To determine if Profhilo is the right choice for you, we always recommend a complimentary consultation at Tay Medispa. During this personalised session, we’ll assess your skin type, age, and specific concerns to ensure the most suitable and effective treatment plan for your unique needs.

 

Who Shouldn’t Get Profhilo?

While Profhilo is safe and suitable for most people, there are a few cases where treatment should be avoided.

You should not receive Profhilo if:

  • You are allergic to Hyaluronic Acid
  • You have an active skin disease, inflammation, or infection in the treatment area
  • You are pregnant or breastfeeding
  • You have a weakened immune system or are undergoing immunosuppressive therapy

At Tay Medispa, your safety is always our priority. We’ll discuss your medical history and any concerns during your consultation to ensure Profhilo is the right choice for you.

What’s the Best Age to Start Getting Profhilo?

Profhilo is most commonly recommended for individuals between the ages of 30 and 50, when the first visible signs of skin ageing—such as fine lines, loss of elasticity, and dullness—begin to appear.
However, age isn’t the only factor. Younger patients can benefit from Profhilo’s preventative effects, while older individuals may see significant improvements in hydration, firmness, and skin texture.

 

How Much Does Profhilo Cost?

Profhilo treatments

The cost of Profhilo treatments varies widely between clinics, depending on the practitioner’s expertise, the areas being treated, and the quality of the product used.
