What is Profhilo Body?

Profhilo is a pure hyaluronic acid that treats skin laxity and improves skin health. It is often mistaken for a filler, but it does not restore lost volume. Instead, Profhilo hydrates the skin and triggers collagen and elastin production. It results in the bio-remodeling of the skin and dramatically improves the quality of the skin.

It is the first stabilised hyaluronic acid-based product without the use of chemical cross-linking agents (BDDE). During the process, low and high molecular weight hyaluronic acid bond together using a patented completely chemical-free, thermal process that confers structural and rheologic stability. By creating these natural bonds, hyaluronic acid fillers are stabilised and confer longevity, meaning they don’t break down within a week or two of injection.

Profhilo can flow freely through the dermis and subcutaneous tissues in a way that traditional hyaluronic acid fillers cannot. This means that it has exceptional results for areas that are difficult to treat with fillers such as the hands, inner arms, and stomach.

“I have never had such good results”, Susan (57)

“I just moved to Farnham from London and I was concerned that I would not have local access to the newest and highest quality treatments as I did in London. In fact, I now benefit from equal, if not better treatments that are much more professionally administered. I have never had such good results with both filler and botox as I have had with Dr. Rekha Tailor.”

“Very refreshing approach”, Female patient (53)

“Dr Tailor very knowledgeable & gentle in her approach leaving you time to go away & have a think before embarking on any treatments. She gave a new insight into how my face can be refreshed without going down my usual Botox & Tear Trough route & it certainly worked!!! She’s incredibly engaging & has now put together a proper skin plan for me, & again for me to go away & have a read rather than being forced into anything. Very refreshing approach & reassuring that there are some decent cosmetic surgeons out there. A worthwhile trip for sure & someone I believe I’ll be with for a while as this was my first experience of the clinic.”

“Highly professional advice”, Female Patient (49)

“The only clinic I trust”, Female Patient (52)

“You are the only clinic I trust , I feel the advice is always genuine and the treatments and products are of the highest quality . Dr Taylor is extremely knowledgeable, professional and caring, a lovely person all round.”

Frequently Asked Questions

How is it made?

Hyaluronic acid fillers are typically stabilised by crosslinking with 1,4-butanediol diglycidyl ether (BDDE), to confer longevity. Otherwise, they would break down and eliminate within a week or two of injection.

The science behind Profhilo is fascinating. Prof. Chiara Schiraldi and Prof. Mario de Rosa developed the technology at the Second University of Naples. It is the first stabilised hyaluronic acid based product without the use of chemical cross-linking agents (BDDE). During the process, low and high molecular weight hyaluronic acid bond together using a patented completely chemical-free, thermal process that confers structural and rheologic stability.

How many treatments will I need?

We recommend an initial treatment plan of 2-3 treatments every 1 month followed by maintenance every 3 to 4 months.

What is the aftercare?

The program includes two sessions of PROFHILO BODY injecting one month apart and the post-session application of patches to soothe and moisturize the skin in the treated area.

In the interval between these two treatments, the patient will also be able to use the BODY CREAM at home for a prolonged action over time.

What are the potential side-effects?

Transient redness, pain, itching, discolouration or tenderness at the implant site.

Is it temporary or permanent?

Hyaluronic acid completely breaks down within the skin leaving no trace.

Who cannot have this treatment?

Individuals with a known hypersensitivity to hyaluronic acid. Also, pregnant ladies and women who breastfeed.

What else can I do with this treatment?

For those that are wanting to treat skin laxity, we highly recommend undergoing a course of SecretRF before Profhilo Body to help stimulate the body’s natural collagen-building process.
