HYDRATION. FIRMNESS. TEXTURE.
An injectable treatment designed to hydrate the skin and improve firmness, without adding volume, altering your features, or leaving you looking “done”.
ABOUT THIS TREATMENT
Profhilo is an advanced injectable hyaluronic acid treatment unlike any other. Where dermal fillers stay in place to add volume and structure, Profhilo spreads evenly beneath the skin surface. It does not add bulk; it stimulates your own skin to rebuild itself.
As we age, our skin loses collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid, leading to sagging, dullness, and a crepey texture that skincare products alone cannot reverse. Profhilo addresses this at a structural level, triggering the skin’s natural collagen and elastin production to restore firmness, elasticity, and deep hydration across the treated area.
Prof. Hindocha administers Profhilo using the BAP (Bio Aesthetic Points) technique, a mapped protocol of five injection points per side designed to spread the product evenly. Treatment is delivered as two sessions four weeks apart, with the full benefit building progressively over three months.
UNDERSTAND THE DIFFERENCE
Both use hyaluronic acid. Both are injectable. But they work completely differently. Understanding which one is right for your concern saves time, money, and disappointment.
| Profhilo | Dermal Fillers | |
|---|---|---|
| Mechanism | Spreads beneath the skin to hydrate it; the manufacturer says it supports collagen and elastin | Volumisation: stays in a defined location to add structure, contour, and lift |
| Volume Effect | None. Features are unchanged; it targets skin quality | Adds volume to targeted areas. Can change facial proportions and definition |
| Best For | Skin quality, firmness, texture, hydration, and crepiness across larger areas | Volume loss, hollow cheeks, thinning lips, nasolabial folds, and deep folds |
| Sessions | 2 sessions 4 weeks apart, then maintenance every 6 months | Single session with results lasting 6–18 months depending on the area |
| Appearance | Aims for skin that looks well, not treated | Immediate structural improvement visible from the session itself |

Your treatment plan is agreed at consultation, after an assessment and a discussion of what you hope to achieve.
AFTER YOUR TREATMENT
Day of Treatment
Small bumps at the injection sites are normal and expected. These resolve within 12–24 hours as the product spreads beneath the skin. Mild redness or tenderness may be present. Avoid makeup for 6 hours post-treatment.
First 24 Hours
Avoid strenuous exercise, excessive heat (saunas, steam rooms), and alcohol for 24 hours. This allows the product to spread evenly and reduces the risk of bruising or uneven distribution.
Weeks 1–2
Skin feels more plump, dewy, and supple as the immediate hydrating effect of the HA becomes apparent. Fine surface lines caused by dehydration begin to soften. The bio-remodelling process is underway.
Weeks 4–12
After the second session at 4 weeks, the collagen and elastin response builds and accelerates. Skin tightens, lifts, and brightens progressively. The full result is typically visible at 8–12 weeks and maintained with a top-up every 6 months.
WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT
Profhilo is designed to improve skin quality without changing your features. Any change is gradual and subtle, aimed at skin that looks hydrated and healthy. No added volume. No altered structure. Just a measurably better version of your own skin.
RESULTS TIMELINE
Profhilo results are progressive, not immediate. The bio-remodelling process unfolds over weeks as your skin produces new collagen and elastin in response to treatment.
WEEKS 1–2
Skin feels notably more hydrated, plump, and supple as the immediate moisture effect of the HA becomes apparent. Fine surface lines caused by dehydration begin to soften.
WEEKS 4–8
After the second session at 4 weeks, collagen and elastin production accelerates. Skin begins to visibly firm and lift. Texture improves and the overall complexion looks brighter and more even.
WEEKS 8–12
The complete benefit of the course is visible. Skin is measurably firmer, more elastic, and better-hydrated. The aim is a natural result, so you look well rather than treated. Maintained with a top-up every 6 months.
WHY PATIENTS CHOOSE PROFHILO
Profhilo improves the quality of the skin without changing the shape of your face. The aim is better skin quality with no change to your features, which suits patients who want improvement without obvious signs of treatment.
Profhilo can be used on the face, neck, décolletage, and hands, where crepey texture, laxity and dehydration are often visible. One protocol covers the full area.
Rather than introducing a long-lasting foreign structure, Profhilo prompts your skin to rebuild using its own collagen and elastin. Any change builds gradually over about three months, not overnight.
Two sessions of 30 minutes. Small temporary bumps that resolve within a day. No meaningful downtime and no restrictions beyond 24 hours. The treatment fits around a normal routine.
IS THIS TREATMENT RIGHT FOR YOU?
Profhilo is suited to patients experiencing early to moderate signs of skin ageing where the concern is quality and texture rather than volume loss or deep folds. A consultation with Prof. Hindocha will confirm whether it is the most appropriate treatment for your skin.

After years of being unhappy with my breasts after breastfeeding, I'm so glad I trusted my instincts and waited until I found the right surgeon. From my first consultation, Professor Hindocha made me feel completely at ease and I knew I could trust him. I'm only a week post-op and already love my results. I feel incredibly lucky to have found him and truly believe I found the best surgeon.
