Profhilo Skin Booster in the heart of Gerrards Cross, Buckinghamshire for Firmer, Hydrated, Glowing Skin
Award-winning bio-remodelling treatment using the highest concentration of ultra-pure hyaluronic acid to deeply hydrate, lift, and tighten the skin for a naturally refreshed and youthful appearance
What is Profhilo?
Profhilo is an award-winning, injectable skin remodelling treatment containing one of the highest concentrations of hyaluronic acid (HA) available on the market — 64mg in just 2ml. Unlike traditional dermal fillers, Profhilo doesn't add volume or structure. Instead, it disperses beneath the skin to bio-remodel ageing and sagging tissue by stimulating the production of collagen, elastin, and adipocytes (fat cells that give the face a youthful plumpness).
Dr. Shaleen uses Profhilo to treat overall skin laxity and improve skin quality from within. Its unique patented NAHYCO® hybrid technology combines both high and low molecular weight hyaluronic acid, allowing it to spread evenly through the tissue and deliver intense, long-lasting hydration while stimulating four different types of collagen and elastin.
- Bio-remodels skin from within
- Stimulates collagen and elastin production
- Intense, deep hydration
- Improves skin laxity and firmness
- Only 5 injection points per side of face
What Makes Profhilo Unique? The Science Behind Bio-Remodelling
Profhilo's patented technology works differently from any other injectable treatment
NAHYCO® Technology
Patented hybrid cooperative complexes of high and low molecular weight hyaluronic acid provide both deep hydration and structural bio-remodelling in a single treatment.
Collagen Stimulation
Profhilo stimulates four different types of collagen (I, III, IV, VII) and elastin, providing comprehensive skin remodelling far beyond simple hydration.
Intense Hydration
With 64mg of pure hyaluronic acid, Profhilo delivers one of the highest concentrations available, providing exceptional deep-tissue hydration.
Even Distribution
The unique spreadability of Profhilo means it flows evenly through the tissue from just 5 injection points per side, treating the entire face uniformly.
Adipocyte Stimulation
Uniquely, Profhilo stimulates adipocytes (fat cells) that provide a youthful plumpness and cushioning, counteracting age-related volume loss.
Award-Winning Treatment
Profhilo has won multiple international aesthetic awards and is backed by extensive clinical research proving its safety and effectiveness.

How Profhilo Treatment Works
Your journey to firmer, more hydrated, naturally youthful skin
Consultation & Skin Analysis
Dr. Shaleen will conduct a thorough skin assessment, discussing your concerns, skin quality, and aesthetic goals. She'll evaluate your skin laxity and determine whether Profhilo is the ideal treatment for your needs.
Preparation
Your skin will be thoroughly cleansed and the 10 BAP (Bio Aesthetic Points) will be marked on your face — 5 on each side. These specific injection points have been carefully designed to allow optimal product distribution.
BAP Injection Technique
Dr. Shaleen will inject small boluses of Profhilo into each of the 10 marked points. The product is delivered just beneath the skin where it immediately begins to spread and integrate into the tissue. The procedure is quick and well-tolerated.
Product Dispersal
Thanks to its unique formulation, Profhilo spreads evenly beneath the skin from the injection points. Small bumps at the injection sites typically flatten within a few hours as the product integrates into the tissue.
Bio-Remodelling Phase
Over the following weeks, Profhilo stimulates your fibroblasts to produce new collagen and elastin. The skin progressively becomes firmer, more hydrated, and more elastic. You'll notice an overall improvement in skin quality and tone.
Second Session & Maintenance
Your second session is scheduled 4 weeks after the first. This completes the initial treatment course, delivering optimal bio-remodelling results. Maintenance treatments are recommended every 6 months to sustain your improvements.

Aftercare Guidelines
Follow these guidelines to maximise your results and ensure optimal healing
First 24 Hours
Avoid touching your face. No makeup — allow injection sites to heal before applying cosmetics. Avoid exercise and skip strenuous physical activity for 24 hours. Stay cool — avoid heat exposure including saunas, steam rooms, and hot baths. Do not massage the area — allow the product to distribute naturally beneath the skin.
First Week
Gentle skincare only — use mild, non-irritating cleansers and moisturisers. Avoid active ingredients — skip retinoids, AHAs, BHAs, and vitamin C for 5-7 days. No facial treatments — postpone facials, peels, microneedling, or laser treatments for 2 weeks. Sun protection is essential — apply SPF 30+ daily. Limit alcohol.
What You Should Do
Stay hydrated — drink plenty of water to support skin hydration and healing. Apply ice packs if needed. Moisturise regularly. Follow prescribed skincare. Be patient — bio-remodelling results develop progressively over 4-8 weeks.
Common Side Effects
Small bumps at injection sites typically flatten within 6-24 hours. Mild redness usually subsides within a few hours to 24 hours. Minor bruising can occur. Tenderness and slight swelling resolve quickly as the product disperses. Contact Dr Shaleen immediately if you experience severe pain, excessive swelling, or signs of infection.
Second Session & Maintenance
Your second Profhilo session is scheduled 4 weeks after the first to complete the treatment course. Dr. Shaleen will assess your results and discuss ongoing maintenance. Most patients benefit from a top-up treatment every 6 months to maintain their improved skin quality and firmness.

Frequently Asked Questions
While both Profhilo and dermal fillers contain hyaluronic acid, they work in very different ways. Dermal fillers are designed to add volume and structure to specific areas (such as lips or cheeks), whereas Profhilo is a skin booster that disperses evenly beneath the skin to improve overall skin quality, hydration, and firmness. Profhilo doesn't add volume or change your features — it bio-remodels the tissue to make your skin healthier from within.
Most patients find Profhilo very comfortable. The treatment involves only 10 injection points (5 per side), and the needles used are very fine. You may feel a small pinch at each injection site, but the procedure is quick — typically completed in 15-20 minutes. Topical numbing cream can be applied beforehand if you are concerned about sensitivity.
Many patients notice an immediate improvement in skin hydration and glow within the first few days. However, the bio-remodelling process — where Profhilo stimulates new collagen and elastin — continues over 4-8 weeks. The most significant results in skin firmness and laxity are typically visible after the second treatment session.
The standard Profhilo protocol consists of just 2 sessions, spaced 4 weeks apart. This simple two-session course is all that's needed for optimal bio-remodelling results. To maintain the improvements, a top-up treatment is recommended every 6 months. Dr. Shaleen will discuss the best ongoing plan for your individual needs.
Profhilo has very minimal downtime. You may notice small bumps at the 10 injection points immediately after treatment, but these typically flatten within 6-24 hours. Mild redness and occasional bruising can occur but are usually minor. Most patients return to their normal daily activities immediately. It's best to avoid makeup for 24 hours and strenuous exercise on the day of treatment.
Profhilo is most commonly used on the face to address skin laxity, fine lines, and overall skin quality. It is also highly effective on the neck — an area notoriously difficult to treat — the décolletage (chest area), and the hands. These areas often show early signs of ageing and respond beautifully to bio-remodelling. Dr. Shaleen will advise on the best treatment areas during your consultation.
Yes! Profhilo works excellently alongside other aesthetic treatments. It pairs beautifully with anti-wrinkle injections, dermal fillers, polynucleotides, or microneedling as part of a comprehensive rejuvenation plan. Many practitioners consider Profhilo a foundational treatment that enhances the results of other procedures. Treatments should be properly spaced — Dr. Shaleen will advise on the optimal combination and timing.
Profhilo is ideal for anyone noticing early to moderate signs of skin ageing, including loss of firmness, skin laxity, fine lines, and dull or dehydrated skin. It's particularly popular amongst patients in their 30s to 60s who want to improve skin quality without adding volume or changing their features. It is safe for all skin types. During your consultation, Dr. Shaleen will assess whether Profhilo is the right treatment for your specific concerns.
