Profhilo for Neck Rejuvenation
Skepticism Turned Enthusiasm
A very good option for skin rejuvenation and anti-aging treatments.
As a cosmetic doctor, I’ve always approached new procedures with a healthy dose of skepticism. One treatment that recently piqued my interest—and my caution—was Profhilo for neck rejuvenation. The neck is a notoriously tricky area to treat, with delicate skin that often shows signs of aging earlier than the face.
Could Profhilo, known for its bioremodeling effects, really deliver results here?
Understanding the Best Protocol
Profhilo is unlike traditional fillers or skin boosters. It’s made up of a unique stabilized form of pure hyaluronic acid (HA) without chemical cross-linking, designed to hydrate, lift, and tighten the skin. But the key to its success lies in the protocol.
The most effective approach involves two treatments spaced one month apart, with possible maintenance treatments every six months, depending on the patient’s skin condition and aging concerns. The product is injected using a 10-point bio-aesthetic point (BAP) technique in the neck, delivering the hyaluronic acid evenly across the treatment area.
How Much Improvement Can You Expect?
What convinced me to recommend Profhilo is the visible improvement in skin texture, elasticity, and hydration. Patients typically notice a 20-30% improvement in skin firmness and a reduction in fine lines after the initial treatments. Results usually peak a few months post-treatment as collagen and elastin production is stimulated.
However, it’s essential to set realistic expectations. While Profhilo is excellent at improving hydration and skin tone, it’s not a replacement for procedures that remove excess skin or treat deep wrinkles. Instead, it’s perfect for patients looking for natural-looking rejuvenation without adding volume or undergoing more invasive treatments.
Hydration: The Foundation for Skin Renewal
What sets Profhilo apart is its hydrating power. Hyaluronic acid is a moisture magnet, and Profhilo’s high concentration of HA works wonders on dehydrated skin. But hydration does more than simply plump up the skin—it triggers the activation of fibroblasts, which are responsible for producing collagen and elastin. These two proteins are crucial for maintaining the skin’s structural integrity.
By increasing hydration, you’re essentially creating a more favorable environment for the skin to regenerate itself. Over time, this leads to firmer, smoother, and more youthful skin, particularly in areas as delicate as the neck.
Conclusion
While I was once skeptical about Profhilo’s effectiveness for neck rejuvenation, I’m now convinced that it’s a valuable tool in the cosmetic treatment arsenal. For patients seeking subtle, natural improvements in skin hydration, tone, and texture, Profhilo offers a non-invasive solution with long-lasting benefits.
