How much does Profhilo cost in London?+
Profhilo at Sardinia House in Holborn is from £300 per session, and a course of two sessions four weeks apart is recommended. That is a guide fee; the exact figure is written into your quote after a free consultation.
Is Profhilo a filler?+
No. Profhilo is a skin booster made from pure hyaluronic acid at one of the highest concentrations available. It spreads beneath the skin to improve hydration, tone and elasticity rather than staying in place to add volume, so it refreshes the skin without changing the shape of the face.
Does Profhilo hurt, and is there downtime?+
Only a handful of injection points are used on each side, so most people find it more comfortable than they expected and describe a brief sting. Small bumps settle within hours and any bruising is minor. Most people return to work the same day.
How long does Profhilo last?+
Around six months after a course of two sessions. The improvement is visible within a few weeks and builds as the skin produces new collagen and elastin. A maintenance session every six to nine months usually keeps the result.
Which areas can be treated?+
The face is the most common, and the neck, hands and décolletage respond well too. These are the areas where thin, crepey or dehydrated skin shows most, and where improving skin quality rather than volume makes the clearest difference.
Do I need a consultation, and can I combine Profhilo with anti-wrinkle injections?+
Yes to both. Every course starts with a free consultation in person. Profhilo pairs well with anti-wrinkle injections, which address lines of expression while Profhilo addresses skin quality, but anti-wrinkle injections are prescription-only and are provided only after a face-to-face consultation with our prescribing clinician. Nothing is prescribed remotely.
Is Profhilo suitable for me?+
It suits most adults with dull, dry or ageing skin, early sagging or fine lines who want a natural result without added volume. We do not treat during pregnancy or breastfeeding, or where there is an active skin infection, and we check your medical history at the consultation.
Can Profhilo go wrong, and what are the side effects?+
Side effects are usually minor: small bumps at the injection points that settle within a few hours, and occasionally some bruising that fades within a week. Because Profhilo is hyaluronic acid rather than a volumising filler, lumps that persist are rare. Treatment at Sardinia House is carried out by a dentist or dental therapist with full consent and aftercare instructions.
Do you offer polynucleotides, Sunekos or Profhilo Structura?+
Not at present. Profhilo is the skin booster we offer, alongside anti-wrinkle injections and jaw-clenching treatment. If another product would suit you better, we will say so at your free consultation.
