Harpenden Skin Clinic in Hertfordshire offers Profhilo skin boosters as one of our aesthetic treatments to improve skin quality and slow the ageing process.
Profhilo is a dual action treatment that uses hyaluronic acid to rehydrate and remodel the skin.
It is designed to erase lines and wrinkles, replace lost volume, improve skin laxity, and rejuvenate the complexion for a healthier, more youthful appearance.
The treatment is extremely quick to complete and carries minimal risks. You can be in and out of the clinic in your lunch break and you’ll leave feeling more confident in your own skin.
Call us on 01582 822000 or contact us online for further information about Profhilo and to request a consultation.
As a skin booster, Profhilo works similarly to dermal fillers and other anti-wrinkle injections; by injecting hyaluronic acid into the skin.
Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring substance produced by the body as a component of connective, epithelial and neural tissues.
This elegantly triggers collagen and elastin production, as well as natural healing processes in the skin tissues.
As a result, skin quality and skin firmness is rejuvenated, becoming not only firmer, but more youthful.
Skin laxity is improved, hydration is boosted, and the skin is remodelled so that lines and wrinkles are smoothed out.
Profhilo is sometimes known as a type of non-surgical face-lift.
Like dermal fillers and other filler treatments, Profhilo can target precise treatment areas for tailored results.
Injections sites are carefully chosen based on the client’s individual requirements. The whole face can be treated with just five injections per side.
Profhilo treatments are effective at:
While Profhilo is a safe and cost-effective alternative to surgery, results of skin boosters are not permanent and you will need more treatment in the future to maintain them. Some clients opt for repeat treatments at 6 to 12 month intervals after their first treatment.

At Harpenden Skin Clinic in Hertfordshire, Profhilo can be used anywhere on the body to restore moisture, collagen and elastin.
The most popular areas that patients choose to have the procedure include common places where ageging skin is visible. These include the:
These are all areas of skin that can be dramatically affected by age, wrinkles and ageing. If you make an appointment with one of our professional clinicians for a consultation, you can discuss the areas that concern you most and the results you wish to achieve.
At our Hertfordshire clinic, our skincare professionals are UK leaders in the latest Profhilo techniques and a great variety of other aesthetic treatments.
You can discuss which treatment may best benefit you and address any concerns you may have at consultation. Together, we will develop a treatment plan that is tailored to your needs.
Profhilo treatment takes around 30 minutes to perform and requires no downtime. Profhilo is administered using a small needle, injected straight into the skin. You will be free to go about your day straight after the whole procedure has been concluded.
The only anaesthetic that the process requires is a local numbing agent that is applied to the treatment area. This will numb any discomfort from the needle. Generally, Profhilo is a painless procedure.
Results will be visible after two treatment sessions placed four to six weeks apart. How many sessions your require will depend on your desired results and the severity of the skin condition being treated.
Results can be seen straight after the initial treatment, but will also improve over the coming weeks as collagen and elastin levels increase.
We will give you comprehensive aftercare advice before you leave our Hertfordshire clinic. Common side effects of Profhilo include redness, swelling, itchiness and tenderness around the injection sites. This should subside within 24 hours.
