Profhilo Treatments
Dr. Mark is injecting Profhilo since 2017 and getting gorgeous results. His patients love Profhilo because it works as a moisture magnet which rehydrates and nourishes their skin.
At our Belfast, Dublin and Galway clinics, there is a growing trend of patients opting for Profhilo and it is now our most popular anti-ageing treatment alongside Anti-Wrinkle injections.
How Does Profhilo work?
Profhilo is a pure Hyaluronic Gel injection which stimulates 4 different types of collagen and elastin.
HA is hydrophilic, which means it draws in and holds water from your body. Profhilo acts as a hydrator rather than a filler. The product flows underneath the skin and finds where it needs to be, making it a bespoke treatment for each patient.
Profhilo Face Treatments
Profhilo is injected into 5 injection points on each side of your face. The product is placed just below the skin’s surface where it disperses & spreads to improve hydration.
Treatment Time : 30 minutes.
Anaesthetic : Topical anaesthetic cream.
Downtime : Redness at the injection sites for a few hours.
Profhilo Neck Treatments
Profhilo is injected into your neck, targeting the areas where the skin is the thinnest and where you have the most lines.
Because neck skin is thin & delicate- you will have raised areas at each injection site on your neck. This is actually the Profhilo. It spreads like honey under your skin over a few hours whilst it works it's magic.
Treatment: takes 30 minutes.
Anaesthetic : Topical anaesthetic cream.
Downtime: Allow 24-48 hours
You might get tiny bruises at the injection sites. These can be easily covered with makeup or concealer.

Neck Profhilo v Neck Lifts
Profhilo rejuvenates the neck area by improving skin laxity, hydration, and overall skin quality.
Neck Lifts are surgical procedures that remove excess skin and fat, providing more dramatic and longer-lasting results.
Profhilo is not a substitute for a neck lift and will not correct sagging or excess skin.
