Profhilo London: The Complete Guide to Bio-Remodelling

Profhilo has become one of the most talked-about aesthetic treatments in London — and for good reason. Unlike traditional dermal fillers, Profhilo does not add volume or reshape features. Instead, it works beneath the skin to deeply hydrate, stimulate collagen and elastin production, and restore the youthful suppleness that time gradually diminishes. At The London Aesthetic Clinic, Profhilo is one of our most requested treatments, and in this guide we explain everything you need to know.

What Is Profhilo?

Profhilo is an injectable treatment containing one of the highest concentrations of hyaluronic acid available in any aesthetic product — 64mg per 2ml syringe. Unlike standard dermal fillers, which are cross-linked to create structure and volume, Profhilo uses a patented NAHYCO® technology that allows it to flow freely beneath the skin, spreading to hydrate a wide area from just five injection points on each side of the face.

The treatment is classified as a bio-remodeller because it actively stimulates the skin's own fibroblasts to produce new collagen and elastin — the structural proteins responsible for firmness and elasticity. The result is not a change in shape or volume, but a profound improvement in skin quality: smoother texture, improved hydration, reduced fine lines, and a natural luminosity that clients often describe as looking "refreshed" rather than "done".

How Does Profhilo Work?

Profhilo is administered using the BAP (Bio Aesthetic Points) technique — a standardised injection protocol that places the product at five specific anatomical points on each side of the face. These points are carefully chosen to allow the hyaluronic acid to spread evenly beneath the skin, providing uniform hydration and bio-remodelling across the entire face.

The treatment works on two levels. In the short term, the high concentration of hyaluronic acid acts as a powerful humectant, drawing moisture into the skin and providing immediate hydration. Over the following weeks, the hyaluronic acid stimulates the production of four different types of collagen and elastin, leading to progressive improvements in skin laxity, texture, and tone.

Profhilo vs Other Skin Treatments

What to Expect During Your Profhilo Treatment in London

Your Profhilo journey at The London Aesthetic Clinic begins with a thorough consultation. Your practitioner will assess your skin condition, discuss your concerns and goals, and confirm that Profhilo is the most appropriate treatment for you. They will also review your medical history to ensure there are no contraindications.

On the day of treatment, a topical anaesthetic cream is applied to the face for approximately 20 minutes to minimise discomfort. The Profhilo is then injected at the five BAP points on each side of the face using a very fine needle. The entire treatment takes approximately 30 minutes. Most clients experience minimal discomfort — a mild pinching sensation at each injection point.

Profhilo Results: What Can You Expect?

Many clients notice an immediate improvement in skin hydration and radiance after their first Profhilo session. However, the most significant results develop over the four to eight weeks following the second treatment, as the bio-remodelling process reaches its peak. Clients typically report the following improvements:

• Significantly improved skin hydration and plumpness
• Reduction in fine lines and superficial wrinkles
• Improved skin tone and texture
• Firmer, more elastic skin — particularly along the jawline and cheeks
• A natural, healthy luminosity often described as a "glow from within"
• Reduced appearance of crepey skin on the neck and décolletage

Profhilo Aftercare

Profhilo requires minimal downtime. Most clients return to their normal activities immediately after treatment. Some mild redness, swelling, or small bumps at the injection sites are normal and typically resolve within 24 to 48 hours. Your practitioner at The London Aesthetic Clinic will provide you with a full aftercare guide, which typically includes:

• Avoid touching or massaging the treated area for 24 hours
• Avoid strenuous exercise, saunas, and steam rooms for 24–48 hours
• Avoid alcohol for 24 hours
• Apply SPF daily to protect and maintain results
• Stay well hydrated to support the hyaluronic acid's hydrating action

Profhilo Cost in London

The cost of Profhilo in London varies depending on the clinic, the practitioner's qualifications, and whether you are purchasing individual sessions or a course. As a guide, a single Profhilo session in London typically costs between £350 and £600. Most practitioners recommend a course of two sessions for optimal results.

When considering cost, it is important to prioritise safety and expertise over price. Profhilo is a medical-grade injectable treatment that must be administered by a qualified and experienced practitioner. At The London Aesthetic Clinic, all treatments are performed by highly trained medical professionals, and pricing is fully transparent with no hidden fees.
