What is Profhilo®
Profhilo® is a revolutionary ‘beneath the skin’ hyaluronic acid moisturising treatment, made with the patented NAHYCO® technology. This results in a unique hyaluronic acid injectable gel, which has a prolonged stimulating activity on the dermal cells. When injected into skin, Profhilo® stimulates the skin cell receptors to counteract skin laxity and improve and restore firmness of the skin.
One of the highest concentrations of hyaluronic acid on the market, Profhilo® not only boosts and hydrates the skin, but also remodels ageing and sagging tissue. The most common areas of treatment include the face and neck and can also be used for the décolletage, hands, arms, knees and abdomen area where it would effectively treat skin laxity. The treatment is suitable for men and women as well as offering skin benefits for patients of all ages.

Skin Boosters
In recent times, skin boosters have risen in popularity and have become an unassuming skincare staple for many. With an ever-expanding list of benefits, minimal downtime, and a quick and easy treatment process, we question why patients are not jumping at the opportunity to try skin boosters. However, we’re here to debunk any skin booster myths and to uncover the truth as to why skin boosters deserve all the publicity they’ve acquired.
But firstly, what are skin boosters?
Skin boosters are developed with high-grade Hyaluronic Acid (HA) and other skin-enriching ingredients such as amino acids, vitamins, and antioxidants. Injections of the skin booster are administered into the epidermis to hydrate, renew, and revive the skin for a luminous glow from within. Additionally, skin boosters are a versatile injectable and can be used on the face, neck, hands, and décolleté but do not contour or augment facial structure. Through the replacement of Hyaluronic Acid (HA), skin booster treatments work to restore hydro equilibrium in the dermis, resulting in more efficacious moisture retention and skin firmness.
Whilst they are both made from Hyaluronic Acid (HA), skin boosters and dermal fillers feature different formulations. Dermal fillers are formulated to create volume and to augment, to almost create the impression of fat pads and even bone but with skin boosters, they’re designed to boost the skin just like they say. They’re actually injectable moisturisers and that’s probably the best way to think about them! Skin boosters don’t create volume, but the process and the mechanics behind the skin booster let your body and support your body in creating its own volume by way of new collagen”.
Ultimately, skin boosters work to rejuvenate the skin, without adding volume or extra dimension. Unlike dermal fillers, skin boosters do not contour or shape the facial structure, whereas the main aim of dermal fillers is to restore lost volume. Dermal fillers are intended to help subtly sculpt the facial features whilst adding volume and plumpness.
Despite sharing similar ingredients, skin boosters are not dermal fillers. For more on the difference between skin boosters and dermal fillers, see our blog: Skin Boosters vs Dermal Fillers.
Another incorrect concept surrounding skin boosters is that the injectable is the same as mesotherapy, an incorrect assumption. Skin boosters are not mesotherapy products and although they share similar benefits they are vastly different treatments.
One of the main similarities between the two injectables is the ingredients. The same ingredients that may be found in mesotherapy ampoule solutions can also be found in skin boosters. For example, Hyaluronic Acid (HA) is a popular hydrating ingredient used in mesotherapy and this is often the primary ingredient in skin boosters. However, the ingredients found in skin boosters are more stabilised, especially the Hyaluronic Acid, meaning that the results will last longer, and fewer treatments are needed before a patient can enjoy the full effects.
Whilst both treatments work to improve the quality of the skin, there are significant differences including the injection protocol, the number of injections and treatments required, and the longevity.
Skin booster treatments are versatile and are not limited to use on the face. Next Generation Skin Boosters, can be used to create a radiant and rejuvenated complexion and can be utilised to refresh the neck area, décolleté and hands. Skin boosters are the perfect skin-enhancing solution to treat numerous areas, other than the face, for long-lasting luminosity.
Producing enviable, glowing skin, skin boosters are the perfect standalone treatment. However, they can also be used alongside other injectables, including anti-wrinkle injections and dermal fillers, if the treatment areas don’t overlap. It is possible to combine dermal fillers, anti-wrinkle injections, and skin boosters at the same time. However, best practice would suggest undertaking a dermal filler treatment two weeks before any other Hyaluronic Acid (HA) facial treatments, to allow the dermal fillers to settle. On the other hand, anti-wrinkle injections and skin boosters can be used together, particularly if the toxin is administered to a separate facial area. If practitioners are considering multiple treatments at the same time, it’s also important to consider the additional trauma to the skin, which could mean a longer recovery time for the client. We would always recommend enlisting the help of a highly qualified and skilled doctor when opting for multiple treatments in one sitting. They will be able to advise accordingly.
Whilst mature skin typically displays more signs of ageing such as fine lines and wrinkles, this does not imply that skin boosters are solely for mature skin. As skin boosters are versatile, they make for the perfect hydrating, hybrid injectable for any client aged over 18.
Aside from rejuvenating tackle crepey and lax skin, skin boosters are intended to help transform dull and dry complexions, for a natural glass skin look.
Skin boosters are the perfect treatment to replace clients’ six-step skincare routine with a single injection, especially the Next Generation Skin Booster.
