The internet is overflowing with anti-ageing products, fillers and treatments claiming to slow down the clock, rewind your age and make you look fresher. Some of these treatments actually work, but others – such as Botox and filler – can do more harm than good if you don’t have a professional carrying out the procedure for you. This is the reason Profhilo reading is so important when it comes to finding a practitioner to administer your injectables.
Profhilo is a form of hyaluronic acid which can be used as an injectable to rejuvenate skin. It encourages your body to produce more of its own anti-ageing collagen and elastin, helping you to feel younger with less fine lines and wrinkles and a more youthful appearance. It works on the deep layers of your skin rather than on the surface and is said to ‘bio-remodel’ your face – giving it an incredibly rejuvenating effect.
Hyaluronic acid is produced naturally by your own body, so there’s no risk of it having any adverse effects on your health or causing any type of allergic reaction. The hyaluronic acid is also biocompatible which means your body can metabolise the product when it’s no longer needed.
Due to the gel like consistency of Profhilo, it’s able to distribute evenly and smoothly across your skin, which can be difficult with some fillers. This helps to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles while ensuring that your skin looks natural, not swollen or puffy. Profhilo lasts in your skin for 28 days where it stimulates four different types of collagen and elastin, which can have a significant impact on the quality of your skin.
The results of a Profhilo treatment can be seen within a few hours, but the full benefits should take a month to fully kick in. Your skin will become smoother, softer, tighter and plumper as the collagen and elastin production continues. Profhilo is a safe treatment for most people who are not pregnant or breastfeeding, but you must avoid certain medications and refrain from heavy exercise and alcohol 24 hours before the treatment.
When it comes to choosing a practitioner, you’ll want to find someone who has extensive experience in cosmetic injectables, including Profhilo injections. In addition to their knowledge of anatomy and physiology, your chosen professional should have advanced training in Profhilo technique as well as having a good understanding of the product itself.
It’s also important to find out whether your practitioner has a thorough understanding of the anatomy of the human face so they don’t accidentally inject Profhilo into a blood vessel. If this occurs, you can suffer from severe complications such as a stroke and blindness.
