Profhilo Treatment
Improve skin hydration, texture and overall skin quality with Profhilo treatment at Vitalis Luxe Clinic in Cottingham, near Hull. Profhilo is an injectable hyaluronic acid treatment designed to support smoother, better-hydrated and healthier-looking skin without adding the type of facial volume associated with traditional dermal fillers.
At Vitalis Luxe Clinic, we provide consultation-led Profhilo treatments for the face and neck, with each treatment plan tailored to your skin concerns, medical history and individual goals. We also offer a wide range of aesthetic treatments to support different skin concerns and cosmetic goals, helping patients explore the most suitable options during consultation.
What Is Profhilo?
Profhilo is an injectable treatment containing a high concentration of hyaluronic acid. Rather than being used primarily to add volume or reshape facial features, Profhilo is used to support skin hydration and improve overall skin quality.
The product is injected into carefully selected treatment points, where it disperses within the tissue. It is commonly chosen by people concerned about dehydrated, dull or crepey-looking skin, reduced elasticity and early signs of skin ageing.
Profhilo may be suitable for areas such as the face and neck, depending on your individual assessment and treatment goals.
How Does Profhilo Work?
Profhilo contains hyaluronic acid, a substance naturally found in the body that plays an important role in retaining moisture within the skin.
Once injected into selected treatment points, Profhilo spreads through the treated tissue rather than remaining in one location to create significant volume. The treatment is designed to support hydration and skin quality across the treatment area.
Hyaluronic Acid and Skin Hydration
Hyaluronic acid is known for its ability to attract and retain water. This makes it an important component in treatments designed to improve the appearance of dry, dehydrated and tired-looking skin.
What Are the Benefits of Profhilo?
Profhilo may be considered by people who want to improve the overall appearance and quality of their skin while maintaining a natural look.
Depending on the individual, treatment may help improve the appearance of:
Dehydrated or dry-looking skin
Fine lines
Crepey-looking skin
Dull skin
Reduced skin elasticity
Uneven-looking skin texture
Mild skin laxity
General age-related changes in skin quality
Profhilo is not intended to produce the same type of facial reshaping or structural volume associated with dermal fillers. Your practitioner will explain what the treatment can realistically achieve for your skin.

Whether Profhilo is suitable for you

Potential risks and aftercare
This allows us to recommend a treatment plan based on your individual needs rather than taking a one-size-fits-all approach.
Profhilo Before and After Results
Profhilo results usually develop gradually as the skin becomes better hydrated and its overall quality improves. The treatment is designed to support smoother, fresher-looking skin rather than create a sudden change in facial shape or volume.
Results can vary depending on your age, skin condition, treatment area and individual response. Your practitioner will explain what improvements may be realistic for you during your consultation.
Profhilo Before and After Treatment Result
Profhilo results can vary depending on your skin condition, treatment area, number of sessions and individual response.
Improvements usually develop gradually as the skin becomes better hydrated and its overall texture and quality improve.
Before-and-after examples can help show the type of changes that may be possible, such as smoother-looking skin, improved hydration and a fresher appearance. However, results are different for every patient and cannot be guaranteed.
For some patients, more than one Profhilo treatment may be recommended as part of the treatment plan. Your progress can be reviewed over time, and any future sessions can be discussed based on your skin response and individual goals.

Profhilo is an injectable hyaluronic acid treatment used to support skin hydration and overall skin quality. It is commonly used on areas such as the face and neck.
Is Profhilo a dermal filler?

Is Profhilo a skin booster?
