Profhilo treatment in Otterbourne & Bishops Waltham
Profhilo is an incredible injectable product made up of thermally stabilised hyaluronic acid.
Hyaluronic acid has an amazing property of being able to hold 1000 times its own weight in water so when Profhilo is injected just under the top layer of skin, its spreads out like runny honey and then draws water into the skin. This hydrating effect means the skin looks dewy, glowing and healthy. However, the clever part comes next.
At our clinic, located in Bishops Waltham, Otterbourne, Stockbridge, and Alresford, we offer this advanced treatment to help rejuvenate your skin and restore that youthful glow.
Profhilo is biostimulatory which means it signals to the fibroblasts in your skin to make four new types of collagen and elastin. This is perfect for people with saggy or crepey skin, making it tighter and more bouncy.
Many areas can be treated including the face, neck, décolletage and hands. In the face, the main area targeted is the cheeks and there are five injections points on each side of the face. Most people describe the injections as ‘a little sting’ but they aren’t really painful and the discomfort eases within a few seconds. Two treatments are needed, one month apart, and from thereon one treatment every three months is ideal.
Results can be seen within a few days from the hydration effect but the collagen takes a little longer to build, so best results are seen four weeks after the second treatment.

Aftercare
After treatment, I advise my patients not to do anything that will make them hot or flushed (red in the face) otherwise there is a risk of the Botox spreading to a muscle we are not intending to treat. Examples of this would be exercise, saunas, sunbeds (don’t use sunbeds ever anyway!), lots of alcohol or facials. After 24 hours you can do any of the above as the Botox won’t move after this.
