As we age, our skin loses hydration internally as the production of collagen starts decreasing after the age of 30. Unfortunately, even the most expensive creams and serums can only go so far in hydrating our skin and sadly, no amount of face cream can penetrate the deeper layers of the skin.

Here is where Profhilo® comes to the rescue! It’s perfect for areas like the face, neck, and décolletage that need hydrating, smoothing and tightening. 

What is Profhilo and how does it work?

Profhilo has won the award for the best injectable product in Europe. Profhilo is an injectable treatment that stimulates the natural production of 4 different types of collagen and elastin in the skin. The benefit isn’t just by boosting collagen but also rehydrating the skin, improving elasticity and smoothing the skins’ texture by using the slow release of hyaluronic acid over the course of 2 treatments. 

Profhilo would be beneficial for those who have:

  • thin crepey skin
  • Fine lines and wrinkles
  • Dehydrated skin  

Profhilo is not like a traditional dermal filler as the hyaluronic acid in it is “super-thin”and is of much higher content. We think of it as more like an “injectable moisturiser” that encourages the skin to repair and hydrate itself.

It is the perfect treatment for those of you who would rather hold off dermal fillers, but still want to walk out there with fresh-looking, flawless skin.

What does the treatment entail? 

The treatment consists of up to 10 small injections. For the best results, it is recommended that you undergo two Profhilo treatments 4 – 6 weeks apart. Another session might be required around 6 months after the initial treatment in case the skin is particularly dehydrated and crepey. The effects last for around 9 months. 

With the cold weather coming up, why not treat your skin to a burst of moisture, for a brighter and smoother complexion?

I have been coming to Dr Yusra’s clinic for almost a year and have been seeing Dr Lauren for lip and chin filler and Dr Yusra for non-surgical rhinoplasty. I feel so at ease from the moment I enter the clinic and all throughout the procedure. I know that I am in safe hands and I trust that I will be given their honest and professional opinion and that they have the skills and knowledge to assess what will work for my face to give a bespoke service - I never feel worried that I will look fake or have too much filler injected as they will guide me to what suits my face. Dr Lauren and Dr Yusra are also incredibly lovely people and always have a smile on their face - I always look forward to my appointments so much and leave with a spring in my step! I was thinking about getting filler for years and now I feel so much more confident in myself and can see an improvement in my appearance and self-confidence after each session. Thank you Dr Lauren and Dr Yusra!

A really pleasant experience from start to finish. The staff were very welcoming and accommodating and the clinic is beautiful! Dr Yusra was very professional, but also put me at ease throughout my treatment constantly asking if I was OK. I definitely received a 5 star service and I am really pleased with my results. I would 100% recommend Dr Yusra and will be visiting again soon. Thanks to all the staff also!!

Such an high quality, friendly clinic! As soon as you walk in you feel such at ease and relaxed. Receptionist greets you with smiles. The clinic has such a calming presence. During my appointment, Dr Yusra listened to my concerns throughly and what outcome i wanted from the treatment. After having treatment I felt 100% more confident when I looked in the mirror than when I first walked in. All the aftercare and follow up call just shows how they care so much for there clients. Can’t wait to be back soon.

One of my favourite places. I have been having some corrective work with Dr Yusra and some skin consultations to help improve my confidence. I’ve found Dr Y very attentive and offers me the explanations and advice I’ve longed for. My results are amazing and I am so pleased I chose this state of the art facility ran only by qualified medical professionals.

What a beautiful clinic and environment. This was my first time receiving any treatment and after searching around I found Dr Yusra clinic. I followed her work before deciding on having tear trough filler and smile lines done. Upon entering the clinic I was very nervous because I wanted the work to look very natural. The reception staff made me feel welcomed and reassured me. I was taken in to Dr. Yusra’s room and Dr. Yusra had a lengthily chat about what I was trying to achieve. She made me feel very comfortable and in safe hands. I love my results it was extremely natural looking and I only had a tiny bruise which I was surprised at considering I bruise easily. I would recommend this Clinic and I will be returning in the future. Amazing staff and a beautiful clean environment

I couldn’t recommend Dr Yusra and her amazing team enough 🤩 As soon as you step foot in the door of her beautiful Liverpool Clinic you are immersed into a relaxing haven. You can completely switch off from all of life’s distractions and let her and all of her friendly team take care of you 🥰 From start to finish you just know you are in such good hands 🙌🏼 Her kind and super supportive team make sure that you completely understand the whole treatment process and talk you through each step of the journey as well as outlining everything you need to do post procedure to ensure your absolutely safety before, during and after! Your wellness is at the heart of everything that they do 🫶🏼 Oh, and make sure that you visit the beach while you visit 😍 (As if the experience wasn’t already perfect enough) x
