Profhilo: How This Skin Booster Works and Who It Suits
High-concentration hyaluronic acid that spreads under the skin
Profhilo by IBSA is an injectable made of a high concentration of hyaluronic acid. Unlike filler, it is not designed to add shape. It spreads under the skin to improve hydration, firmness and glow, which is why it is often called "bio-remodelling". Here is how it works and who benefits most.
Key takeaways
- What it is: high-concentration, stabilised hyaluronic acid (IBSA).
- Technique: usually 5 injection points per side of the face.
- Course: two sessions about 4 weeks apart.
- Results: firmer, more hydrated skin; often lasts around 6 months.
- Not filler: it improves skin quality rather than adding volume.
