A Pioneering Hyaluronic Acid Treatment

Profhilo is unique injectable treatment, which harnesses the hydrating properties of hyaluronic acid and is crafted using the patented NAHYCO technology, stands as a revolutionary 'beneath the skin' moisturising solution. NAHYCO technology amalgamates high and low molecular weight hyaluronic acid in a unique way, resulting in a stabilised hybrid cooperative complex. This stabilisation process enhances the longevity and efficacy of hyaluronic acid within the skin, ensuring not just superficial hydration but also deep tissue rejuvenation. As a reservoir of moisture, Profhilo draws and retains water, offering intense hydration and visibly reducing fine lines and the crepey texture of dry skin. Its ability to stimulate collagen and elastin production is crucial for bolstering skin elasticity and firmness. Administered through Bio-Aesthetic Points (BAP), Profhilo maximises its benefits, delivering a comprehensive anti-ageing and hydrating solution. This results in a significant improvement in tissue quality, marking Profhilo as more than just a skin booster, but also as an effective treatment for skin tightening and lifting.
