Bio-remodelling /
Profhilo is a new category of injectables known as 'bio-remodelling fillers', this type of filler consists of pure hyaluronic acid which stimulates stem cells and treats fine lines and wrinkles, skin laxity, loss of elasticity, and dullness. It is also a biostimulant so once it naturally breaks down and is absorbed into the skin, it also stimulates collagen and elastin production in the skin.
How long does it last?
Results usually last 6 months after your bio-remodelling injection treatment. Although some patients will be happy with their results after just one treatment, for best results we recommend having 2-3 treatments one month apart.
What can I expect after treatment
The results are immediate! You will notice that your skin is brighter, smoother and healthier after just one round of injections. As time goes on and in particular after your second treatment, these effects are further enhanced as the hyaluronic acid has hydrated the skin tissue and activated collagen production. Skin will begin to look more radiant, healthy, slightly plumper looking. Results are subtle and most people feel particularly happy that that the results are natural.
What should I do pre-treatment?
+ Avoid taking aspirin, NSAIDS, anticoagulant drugs and Gingko Biloba supplements
+ Do not wax, bleach, use depilatory creams (Nair)
+ Avoid any chemical peels, facials, laser, and microdermabrasion for 2 weeks prior to treatment
of the same area.
+ Avoid sun bathing, and extremes of heat or cold for 14 days post treatment.
What should I do post-treatment
• Vigurous physical activity
• Cosmetic procedures for the first two days after the treatment.
• Sauna, steam bath, icy temperatures or UV radiation by the sun or a solarium for two weeks after the treatment.
• Dental procedures for two weeks after the treatment.
• Filler injections in the same area, microdermabrasion, chemical peel, IPL two weeks after the treatment.
Wrinkle Reduction Treatment
As we age our body produces less collagen and elastin which contributes to the formation of wrinkles, lines and creases on our face.
Wrinkle treatments work by injecting a small amount of toxin into the muscle which prevents and reduces muscle movement that leads to fine lines and wrinkles. The less movement that is present, the less contribution to future lines and wrinkles, resulting in cosmetic wrinkle reduction.
When can I see results?
It can take up to 14 days to see the full effects of treatment, however the toxin will bind to the muscle 24-48 hrs after treatment.
As all clients are unique and wrinkle reduction treatments are not a one size fits all approach, it may take up to 2 appointments to meet client expectations. Please wait 2 weeks for a follow up consultation.

Volume Replacement and Lip Volumisation
As we age, our natural production of hyaluronic acid slowly declines, causing our skin to lose volume and become dehydrated. Dermal fillers are injected below the skins surface to improve tissue hydration, restore lost volume, and enhance facial features resulting in volumisation and enhancement.
Dermal fillers contain Hyaluronic Acid which is a a naturally occurring slippery/gooey substance that our body produces and contributes to natural skin hydration and volume.
Time affects facial ageing by producing cellular and anatomical changes resulting in loss of soft tissue volume, fat and bone. Dermal fillers can help with volume replacement, lip volumisation, cheek contour, jawline contour, and jawline definition, leading to a more youthful appearance.
A thorough in-depth consultation is always performed prior to any injectable treatment. This involves a detailed facial assessment, as well as an in-depth discussion about treatment options to address your personalised needs and concerns.
