The difference between Dermal Fillers & Profhilo Fillers

Share page:

profhilo v fillers

Is Profhilo a filler?

While both use the same component, hyaluronic acid, to produce beautiful results, profhilo fillers and dermal fillers work very differently.

Dermal filler is injected to enhance a specific area such as the lips and cheeks, and it does not typically migrate to the surrounding skin.

In this way, it augments your natural facial structure to produce more angular cheekbones or plumper lips.

Profhilo works very differently because it is made of 100% hyaluronic acid, while dermal fillers have other components.

Because it is made of a completely natural skin substance, it blends into our skin seamlessly and distributes itself evenly.

The treatment helps to retain moisture levels in the skin while boosting the production of collagen and elastin, essential skin proteins, to refresh the skin from the inside-out.

When creating more bouncy, youthful, and hydrated skin, we need to delve into the layers rather than slather serums and creams on top.

Think about how much your skin goes through on a daily basis: topical makeup, maybe?

Definitely sun exposure, air pollutants, and drying weather too, right?

Because our skin is our first barrier against the outside world, it often takes more than moisturiser to revive its health. When you want truly effective results, we need to go beneath the top layer of skin.

Collagen is a buzzword that many skincare companies are incorporating into their products. While collagen is essential to skin laxity and firmness, the molecules are simply too big to penetrate the top layer of skin.

Similarly, hyaluronic acid which is the main component in most reputable dermal fillers, is capable of holding over 1,000 times its own weight in water to aid hydration.

This, too, needs careful molecular consideration, as many products fail to get the proper molecular weight right for it absorb into the skin.

Topical products just don’t have the same power as injectable treatments, but is there a treatment out there that can improve skin quality and hydration?

What is profhilo made of?

Profhilo is an injectable moisturiser that offers global rejuvenation of the whole face to plump, hydrate, and boost skin cell turnover.

The injections use stabilised hyaluronic acid which spreads outside of the immediate treatment area.

It forms a water-binding layer beneath the skin to provide all-over facial rejuvenation while leaving the structure of the face untouched.

It works to create a lit-from-within glow with softened fine lines and improved skin quality in texture and laxity.

This is the ideal treatment for those not seeking a change in their appearance, but a little boost in the appearance of their skin.

Profhilo has become one of the most sought-after treatments for the improvement of skin quality, texture, and firmness.

With many clients favouring it because of its subtlety yet transformative glow-inducing powers, Profhilo continues to perform effective facial rejuvenation.

From the moment I booked my appointment right through to having a treatment I have been impressed with the professionalism of the Time Clinic, everyone I have encountered is friendly and welcoming. I initially booked a skin consultation and I was fascinated by the results and the way Dr Victoria talked through my results with me. There was no pressure to book any treatments following this but after receiving all the information via email from my consultation I decided there were a few things I wanted to pursue. I was quite nervous before my treatment but Dr Victoria really made me feel at ease. Its early days but so far I am impressed with the results and will definitely return. I feel in safe hands with The Time Clinic.
