Profhilo Body: Anti-aging for the body

Profhilo Body is an anti-aging treatment that uses a high concentration of pure hyaluronic acid without any chemical additives, specifically designed to address skin laxity on the body. This treatment works by stimulating the production of collagen (for firmness) and elastin (for elasticity). As a result, the skin becomes firmer, healthier, and more resilient.

A key advantage of Profhilo Body is that it rejuvenates the skin without adding volume. The skin is genuinely restored, addressing sagging with 100% natural hyaluronic acid.

What can Profhilo Body treat?

This treatment is suitable for addressing skin laxity on the upper arms, abdomen, knees, and legs. Extensive research has also shown that the décolleté and the backs of the hands respond better to a 3ml treatment per session compared to the 2ml packaging typically used for the face and neck. The results are very natural, with the skin becoming firmer, more resilient, and better hydrated.

What’s new with Profhilo Body?

In 2016, Profhilo won the Aesthetics Awards for the most innovative treatment due to its unique application of hyaluronic acid with specific benefits. The hyaluronic acid used is very natural, which reduces the risk of side effects and ensures a natural result. Profhilo Body was introduced in October 2021 and is specifically designed for skin laxity on the body, with a different composition from the Profhilo available for the face. Each package contains a pre-filled 3ml syringe with 48 mg of high molecular weight and 48 mg of low molecular weight hyaluronic acid.

With this addition to the Profhilo line, IBSA now offers effective treatments for both the face and body.

How does the treatment work?

During this treatment, injections are administered in anatomically targeted areas to ensure optimal results. Profhilo Body spreads well, so only a few injections are needed to cover an entire zone. The procedure is quick, minimally painful, and the risk of side effects is very low due to the natural material used. A course of 2 treatments with a one-month interval is recommended, with a follow-up treatment after 6 months. Additional treatments can be scheduled if necessary.

Who is this treatment suitable for?

This treatment is ideal for anyone around 30 years or older looking to combat skin laxity. It can be effectively combined with other treatments. Ask about the options available.

When will I see results?

Typically, 2 to 3 treatments are needed, spaced a month apart, depending on the degree of skin laxity. Because the treatment stimulates the skin’s natural processes, results aren’t immediate. However, the skin will quickly appear more hydrated.

From 6 to 10 weeks after the first treatment, the positive effects become more noticeable as collagen and elastin production takes time.

How long do the results last?

The duration of results depends on your skin’s condition. It’s recommended to have a maintenance treatment once or twice a year to maintain results, as the aging process continues.

What side effects may occur?

Hyaluronic acid is a substance naturally found in the skin. When injected, it is well-tolerated. Possible side effects of Profhilo Body treatment include mild swelling, redness, and occasionally bruising. These effects are more likely due to the injections rather than the product itself and will quickly subside. If you have any concerns about side effects, contact your treating doctor immediately.
