Why is everyone talking about Profhilo in Kent?

Profhilo. This might be a new word to you, but it’s not new to us. Profhilo in Kent is a fantastic age defying treatment, specially designed to combat skin that has lost its glow. If you haven’t heard someone talking about it, we’re sure you will soon – unlike other skin treatments, it’s made to actually help stimulate the body’s natural production of collagen and elastin, giving you back that super star glow. Here’s our quick guide to Profhilo in Kent.profhilo-kent

I’m confused – what actually is it?

Well, Profhilo is an injectable skin remodelling treatment which contains one of the highest concentrations of Hyaluronic Acid. What is Hyaluronic acid? HA is a polymer made by your body, which is mostly found in the skin and connective tissue. Its main job is to keep your skin tissue hydrated and moist. The trouble is as we grow older, the natural aging process and exposure to things like sun, smoke, and pollution cause our bodies to stop making so much of it and so our skin starts to lose its natural elasticity and to get it back we need to find other ways of creating it. That’s where Profhilo comes in. Unlike other injectable skin enhancements out there this product doesn’t just plump skin and flatten fine lines, it also stimulates the production of collagen. And what is collagen? Collagen is the main protein found in skin and tissue, and it’s the main building block for your whole body to grow from. It’s what keeps our skin from sagging and can give you back that fuller look.

How does it work?

HA is a hydrophilic, which means it actually draws and holds water from your body, so the Profhilo in Kent actually holds onto water in the skin, working to hydrate the skin unlike some other more traditional fillers. It’s perfect for those of us suffering with dull, tired, ageing skin. After treatment you’ll see more change as over the next few weeks there will be a secondary tightening from the collagen stimulation.

What’s the process?

At Stangrove Court Dental, we currently offer a free consultation for Prohilo so we can have a good chat and see if this is the right treatment for you. Profhilo in Kent would involve you doing two treatments four week apart. We understand that five injections can feel daunting, but not to worry, as we offer a numbing treatment to minimise discomfort. You might see small little bumps under the skin after the procedure but they should go within the day. Effects of the treatment last up to six months.

Do I need recovery time?

The downtime after this treatment would be very minimal and you should be able to return to light daily activities straight away, but we highly recommend avoiding physical strain – so no trips to the gym and maybe save the washing for the next day. Please try to avoid saunas or steam baths for the first few days and also try to keep makeup off for a day or so while your skin is healing.

If you’re looking for an effective, natural cosmetic treatment to combat signs of tired skin, we can’t recommend Profhilo enough.
