Profhilo® has become one of the most talked-about aesthetic treatments in London — and for very good reason. Unlike traditional dermal fillers, Profhilo® does not add volume or change facial structure. Instead, it works from within the skin to stimulate collagen and elastin production, delivering dramatic improvements in skin quality, hydration and firmness that look and feel completely natural.
What Is Profhilo® and How Does It Work?
Profhilo® is an injectable treatment containing one of the highest concentrations of hyaluronic acid available — 64mg in just 2ml. This ultra-pure hyaluronic acid is manufactured using a unique NAHYCO® technology that creates a hybrid complex of high and low molecular weight hyaluronic acid. When injected into the skin, it spreads throughout the tissue, providing intense hydration while simultaneously stimulating the production of four different types of collagen and elastin.
What Results Can I Expect from Profhilo®?
The results of Profhilo® are subtle but transformative. Rather than changing your appearance, Profhilo® improves the quality of your skin — making it look healthier, more hydrated, firmer and more radiant. Most patients notice improved skin texture and a healthy glow within a few days of their first treatment. The full collagen-stimulating effect develops over 4–8 weeks after the second session, with the skin appearing noticeably firmer and smoother.
How Many Profhilo® Sessions Do I Need?
The standard Profhilo® protocol consists of two sessions, spaced 4 weeks apart. This initial course delivers the full benefit of the treatment. Maintenance sessions every 6 months are recommended to sustain the results. Some patients choose to have a top-up treatment every 3–4 months for optimal skin quality maintenance.
How Much Does Profhilo® Cost in London?
Profhilo® costs in London typically range from £350 to £600 per session, depending on the clinic and practitioner. At Cosmetic Skin Clinic London, Profhilo® starts from £450 per session. As with all injectable treatments, we strongly recommend choosing a doctor-led clinic with qualified medical practitioners rather than opting for the cheapest option available.
Profhilo® vs Dermal Fillers: What Is the Difference?
Profhilo® and dermal fillers are both hyaluronic acid-based injectable treatments, but they work very differently. Dermal fillers add volume to specific areas of the face to restore lost fullness or contour features. Profhilo® does not add volume — it improves overall skin quality throughout the treated area. The two treatments complement each other beautifully and are often used together as part of a comprehensive facial rejuvenation programme.
Is Profhilo® Suitable for Me?
Profhilo® is suitable for most adults who want to improve their skin quality, hydration and firmness. It is particularly beneficial for patients experiencing early signs of skin ageing, including loss of firmness, dryness and dullness. It is suitable for the face, neck, décolletage and hands. During your consultation at Cosmetic Skin Clinic London, your doctor will assess your skin and determine whether Profhilo® is the most appropriate treatment for your concerns.
