Cosmetic Treatments
Profhilo®
Profhilo® is an innovative appearance treatment to address skin laxity on the face and neck, effectively rejuvenating wrinkled and sagging skin. By deeply hydrating the skin and stimulating collagen and elastin production, Profhilo® helps tighten and lift skin, enhancing skin texture and resulting in a more youthful appearance.
How Does Profhilo® Work?
Profhilo® is administered just beneath the skin’s surface to activate skin cells that produce collagen, and elastin. This enhances skin hydration, reduces lines and wrinkles, and improves skin tone and firmness, resulting in a tightening and lifting effect.
Hyaluronic Acid is a hydrating substance that retains water. Although naturally present in the skin, production decreases as we grow older. Widely utilised in skincare products, Hyaluronic Acid can also be injected through Profhilo® treatment to activate skin cell receptors, thereby enhancing and rejuvenating the skin’s firmness.
At Cosmetic & Veins Clinic, we recommend at least two treatments completed 4-6 weeks apart to achieve the best results. Results can be maintained with 6-12 monthly top-up treatments.

What are the Benefits of Profhilo®?
Profhilo® reduces skin laxity by rejuvenating and firming up ageing skin, which reduces sagging. The treatment provides intense hydration and stimulates collagen and elastin production, which enhances skin tightness and lift. This treatment improves overall skin quality, and results in a more youthful appearance.
