Prophilo
Prophilo is an innovative skin rejuvenation treatment that involves hyaluronic acid injections. It is a non-invasive procedure that provides the skin with moisture and nutrients.
What sets Prophilo apart is that it not only smooths out wrinkles and lines but also tightens and brightens the skin overall. The treatment is often referred to as a "liquid facelift" as it has a similar effect to a facelift but without the use of scalpels or other surgical instruments.

Prophilo Informationen
- Wrinkles and lines: Prophilo can smooth out wrinkles and lines on the face, neck, and décolletage and improve the overall appearance of the skin.
- Dry skin: Prophilo can hydrate dry skin and make it appear more radiant by providing it with moisture and nutrients.
- Loss of skin elasticity: Prophilo can stimulate the production of collagen and elastin, which can improve the elasticity of the skin.
- Skin sagging: The firming effect of Prophilo can make the skin appear tighter and more youthful overall.
- Uneven skin tone: Prophilo can improve skin texture and even out skin tone, resulting in an overall more uniform complexion.
The treatment process for a Prophilo treatment consists of several steps:
- Consultation: Before the treatment, you will have a consultation with an experienced dermatologist or beauty expert. During this consultation, your individual skin needs will be discussed, and your suitability for the Prophilo treatment will be assessed.
- Cleansing: Before the treatment, the area to be treated will be thoroughly cleansed to remove any dirt, oil, and other impurities.
- Injection: The Prophilo injections will be injected into the skin using a very fine needle. The injections can be placed in various areas of the face, neck, or décolletage, depending on your needs.
- Massage: After the injection, the treated area will be gently massaged to promote the distribution of hyaluronic acid in the skin and achieve the best results.
- Completion treatment: After the treatment, a soothing cream will be applied to reduce any potential redness or swelling.
The entire treatment process typically takes around 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the size of the area to be treated. It is important to note that the results of the Prophilo treatment are not immediately visible but develop gradually over time. Most patients require two to three treatments spaced four weeks apart to achieve the desired results.
- Natural results: Prophilo contains pure hyaluronic acid that already exists in our bodies. This means that the treatment leads to natural-looking results that enhance the appearance of your skin without looking unnatural or overdone.
- Long-lasting results: Prophilo can improve the appearance of your skin for a longer period of time. Typically, the results of the treatment are visible for up to six months.
- Quick treatment: The Prophilo treatment is quick and straightforward, and can usually be completed in less than an hour.
- Minimal downtime: There is typically minimal downtime after the treatment. Most patients can return to their normal activities immediately after the treatment.
- Versatility: Prophilo can be used to improve various skin concerns, including wrinkles, fine lines, dry skin, loss of skin elasticity, sagging skin, and uneven skin texture and tone.
- Safety: Prophilo is a safe and well-tolerated treatment. As it is a non-invasive treatment, the risks and side effects are lower compared to invasive cosmetic treatments.
However, it is important to note that the results of a Prophilo treatment may vary from person to person, and that multiple treatments may be necessary to achieve the desired results in some cases.
After a Prophilo treatment, there are some things to consider in order to achieve the best possible result and minimize any potential side effects. Here are some important points:
- Avoid strong sunlight: Avoid direct sunlight and apply a high SPF sunscreen for at least a week to protect the treated skin.
- Avoid intense physical activities: Avoid strenuous activities or exercises that can cause excessive sweating to avoid irritating the treated areas.
- Avoid alcohol-based products: Avoid alcohol-based skincare products or cosmetics as they can dry out the skin and cause irritation.
- Avoid facial massages or intensive facial treatments: Avoid massages or intensive facial treatments such as peels, microdermabrasion, or laser treatments for at least one week after the Prophilo treatment.
- Use mild skincare products: Use mild skincare products and keep your skin moisturized and hydrated to promote faster recovery and better results.
- Plan for potentially multiple treatments: In some cases, multiple treatments may be necessary to achieve the desired results. Your doctor will recommend the best treatment options and customize the treatment plan to your individual needs.
It is also important to keep an eye out for any side effects such as redness, swelling, or mild bruising.
- Redness and swelling: After the treatment, there may be redness and swelling at the treated areas. However, these symptoms usually subside within a few hours or days.
- Bruising: There is also a possibility of mild bruising at the treated areas, which typically disappears within a few days.
- Allergic reactions: In rare cases, allergic reactions may occur to the products used. It's important that you inform us of any allergies or intolerances before the treatment.
- Pain: During the treatment, there may be pain or discomfort, although this is usually brief.
Overall, Prophilo treatment is a relatively safe and well-tolerated minimally invasive treatment method that requires minimal downtime.
No downtime is expected. You can do your daily activities as usual.
