Dr Sknn - Profhilo Face & Body

Benefits

Improvement in skin elasticity and support

A tightening & lifting effect

Redefinition


Tissue regeneration

Increase skin thickness

Increase in elastin and collagen

Re-modelling of soft tissue

Plumping

Hydrating the tissue

Profhilo is the first injectable of its kind used to treat skin laxity and poor hydration. Profhilo uses a process of thermal cross-linking to stimulate 4 different types of collagens and elastin through the slow release of Hyaluronic Acid. Hyaluronic acid is essential for skin rejuvenation and the maintenance of the appearance of a younger healthier looking skin. As Profhilo has a lack of additives and due to the purity of the product it reduces the risk of side effects. Profhilo promotes multi-level dynamic remodelling which results in the stimulation of collagen which leads to significant tissue improvement, without volumization, resulting in tightening and hydrating the treated area thus addressing ageing and sagging signs while redefining the contour and shape of the tissue.

How does Profhilo work?

Profhilo works by bio-remodeling, it leads to cellular activation in different layers of the skin Changes to the structure of the extra cellular matrix activates stimulation of cell migration and cell proliferation therefore promoting improvement to the skin elasticity while maintaining the viability of fibroblast, keratinocytes and adipocytes.
Profhilo also leads to tissue restoration without replacing volume, leading to both tightening and hydrating the tissue.

Profhilo is a hybrid of high and low molecular weight of hyaluronic acid, which work together to increase elastin, collagen and the thickness of the skin. Within 2ml of Profhilo there is 64mg of Hyaluronic Acid which is the highest content currently available within the market.

Due to the result of the patented hybrid technology this results in a slow, long-lasting release of high and low molecular weight HA.

In specific Profhilo mechanism of action works in the following way:

Increased Collagen Production: Collagen Type I and III are stimulated by fibroblasts.
Increased Elastin Synthesis: Increased elastin expression in fibroblasts leads to production of type IV and VII collagen.
