Frequently Asked Questions:
“Is Profhilo a type of filler?”
“What does it actually do?”
“How is it different from skin boosters or biostimulators?”

Let me clarify:
Profhilo is not a filler, nor is it a typical skin booster. Instead, it’s a unique type of Hyaluronic Acid (HA) molecule designed to rejuvenate the skin holistically.
What is Profhilo?
Profhilo is a pure, high-concentration Hyaluronic Acid (HA) — 32 mg per 2 ml — developed using NAHYCO® Hybrid Technology from Italy. This technology allows the HA to spread evenly across the face, while simultaneously stimulating collagen and elastin production.
How is Profhilo different from fillers?
Aspect | Profhilo | Filler |
Purpose | Holistic skin rejuvenation | Volume restoration in specific areas |
Structure | Pure HA, no cross-linking | Cross-linked HA |
Viscosity | Low viscosity, spreads easily | Thicker, maintains shape |
Injection Areas | Face / Neck / Hands | Under eyes / Chin / Temples, etc. |
Results | Hydrated, radiant, more elastic skin | Volume restoration / Contour shaping |
How does Profhilo work?
Profhilo is injected into the superficial subcutaneous layer (fat layer) at 5 standardized points per side of the face or neck — a method called the BAP technique.
After injection, Profhilo works by:
Spreading evenly across the treatment area
Drawing water into the skin to increase hydration
Stimulating fibroblasts to produce collagen and elastin
Resulting in firmer, smoother, and more elastic skin — naturally
Who is it suitable for?
People with dry or dehydrated skin
Skin showing early signs of sagging or dullness
Anyone 25+ starting to notice aging signs
Those wanting skin rejuvenation without changing facial structure
People who don’t like fillers but want healthier, plumper skin
When are results visible and how often is it needed?
Noticeable within 1–2 weeks after the first session
Skin continues to improve over the next 2–3 months
Recommended protocol: 2 sessions, one month apart, then maintenance every 6 months
Where can Profhilo be injected?
Face
Neck
Back of hands
Under the chin / Jawline
Are there side effects?
Profhilo is a natural HA with no cross-linking agents or additives, making it very safe with minimal side effects:
Mild needle marks for 1–3 days
No swelling, stiffness, or distortion
No product migration or lumping under the skin
✅ Safe even for first-timers who’ve never had any injectables
Doctor’s Recommendation
“Profhilo is an excellent choice for those who don’t want anything too intense, but feel their skin isn’t as radiant as before. It’s ideal for people who want to rejuvenate their skin from within, without needing fillers or lasers.”
Summary
Profhilo is a pure HA treatment that stimulates the skin on a cellular level
It’s not a filler, but improves hydration, plumpness, and radiance
Suitable for all ages, especially those with early signs of aging
Safe, with low risk of side effects, and does not alter your facial structure
If you’re looking to start a natural skin-rejuvenation journey, Profhilo is a great place to begin.
