Profhilo: What to Know Before You Book
A bio-remodelling injectable made from stabilised hyaluronic acid that hydrates the skin from within and gently stimulates collagen and elastin, rather than adding volume like a traditional filler.
Who it’s for
People in their thirties and beyond noticing skin looking drier, duller or less firm, particularly on the cheeks, around the mouth, on the neck or the backs of the hands. When you are ready, see Profhilo in the Maldives at our Hulhumalé clinic.
What to expect at your visit
A quick session, usually fifteen to twenty minutes, with the product injected at a small number of standard points so it can spread evenly under the skin.
What results look like over time
A standard course is two sessions about four weeks apart, with results building over the following weeks and typically lasting around six months.
Downtime & aftercare
Small raised bumps at each injection point are normal and typically flatten within hours to a day; avoid heat, strenuous exercise and make-up for the rest of treatment day.
How to prepare for your visit
No special preparation is needed; we will discuss suitability at your skin consultation, particularly if you are prone to keloid scarring.
Often paired with
Often paired with dermal fillers for people who want both volume and improved skin quality.
Who might want to wait
Not the right choice if your main concern is deep folds or significant volume loss, and not suitable during pregnancy or breastfeeding, over active infection, or with a known hyaluronic acid allergy.
“Does Profhilo add volume like filler?”
No – it improves the quality of the skin itself through bio-remodelling rather than adding structured volume; the two are complementary and some people use both.
