Can I have Profhilo if I've had dermal fillers before?

Yes, Profhilo can be safely combined with existing dermal fillers. In fact, it often enhances the results of previous filler treatments by improving overall skin quality.

How soon can I wear makeup after treatment?

You can apply makeup 6 hours after your Profhilo treatment, once the injection sites have sealed. Use clean brushes and gentle application techniques.

Will people notice I've had treatment?

Profhilo provides very natural-looking results. People are more likely to comment that you look refreshed or well-rested rather than obviously "done."

When will I see results from Profhilo?

Initial improvements in skin hydration and glow appear within 1-2 weeks. The full bio-remodelling effects develop over 4-8 weeks, with optimal results visible at 2-3 months.

How long do Profhilo results last?

Results typically last 6-9 months. Some patients maintain benefits for up to 12 months, especially with good skincare and lifestyle habits.

Can Profhilo replace a facelift?

Profhilo provides subtle lifting and skin improvement but cannot replace the dramatic results of surgical procedures. It's excellent for early signs of ageing and skin quality improvement.

Is Profhilo suitable for men?

Absolutely. Profhilo is equally effective for men and women. Many male patients appreciate the natural, subtle improvements it provides.

What's the minimum age for Profhilo treatment?

While there's no strict minimum age, Profhilo is typically most beneficial for patients over 30 who are beginning to notice skin quality changes. Younger patients might benefit more from preventative skincare.

Can I have Profhilo during pregnancy?

No, Profhilo treatment is not recommended during pregnancy or breastfeeding as a precautionary measure, despite hyaluronic acid being naturally present in the body.

Are there any long-term risks with Profhilo?

Profhilo has an excellent long-term safety profile. The hyaluronic acid is gradually broken down by the body's natural processes, leaving no permanent residue.

Can I exercise after Profhilo treatment?

Light activities can be resumed immediately, but we recommend avoiding intense exercise for 48 hours to minimise swelling and allow optimal product distribution.
