Spa-licious is delighted to offer Profhilo®, a break-through anti-aging treatment at the cuttingedge of non-surgical skincare. Consisting of the highest grade of Hyaluronic Acid (HA), it is one of the most proven effective skin remodelling agents available. As well as filling lines and wrinkles, Profhilo® tightens and firms loose facial skin, delivering visible improvements after just two treatments. It is ideal for overall facial rejuvenation and targeting difficult areas which only usually show improvement with surgery, such as tightening loose skin around, and under the chin, and firming crepey and lax neck skin.
Profhilo® works by boosting your natural collagen and elastin production, the cells responsible for giving skin its firm, youthful appearance. The unique injectable HA gel has the capability to stimulate four different kinds of collagen and elastin production, putting its performance above any other filler. The HA solution is injected at five key points on either side of the face, restoring hydration – plumping out the skin – while also stimulating long-term collagen and elastin production.
Profhilo is ideal for combating several signs of aging, including:
Profhilo is highly recommended for mature patients looking to improve their skin’s quality and appearance, as well as younger patients seeking an effective preventative measure against first signs of aging.
Profhilo® delivers results quickly. After a recommended course (two Profhilo® appointments, four weeks apart) skin looks deeply hydrated, facial skin appears firmer, and fine lines diminished. Skin tone also looks noticeably smoother and fuller. In mature patients, even deeper wrinkles and facial folds – such as nasolabial lines, the lines that run from the side of the nose to the mouth – are improved, while overall skin texture appears fresher, firmer and more radiant.
Profhilo is an injectable skin rejuvenation treatment containing a high concentration of hyaluronic acid, a substance naturally found in the skin that helps maintain hydration and elasticity.
Unlike traditional dermal fillers, Profhilo is designed to improve overall skin quality rather than add volume to specific facial areas. It works by spreading beneath the skin and supporting collagen and elastin production, helping to improve skin hydration, firmness and texture.
At Spa-licious in Gerrards Cross, Profhilo is a popular non-surgical treatment for clients looking to address early signs of ageing and achieve naturally refreshed-looking skin.
Profhilo can help improve the appearance of mild skin laxity, fine lines and wrinkles by increasing hydration and supporting the skin’s natural remodelling processes.
It is particularly suitable for areas showing early signs of ageing, including the cheeks, jawline, lower face and neck.
Although Profhilo can improve skin firmness and elasticity, it does not provide the same lifting or volumising effects as dermal fillers or surgical procedures. Results vary depending on age, skin condition and individual treatment goals.
Both Profhilo and Profhilo Structura are injectable treatments containing hyaluronic acid, but they are designed to address different signs of facial ageing.
Traditional Profhilo focuses on improving skin hydration, elasticity and overall skin quality, making it ideal for clients concerned about fine lines, dullness and crepey skin.
Profhilo Structura is designed to target age-related changes in facial adipose tissue (fat compartments), helping to improve the appearance of facial contours and volume loss.
During your consultation, we can discuss which treatment is most appropriate for your skin concerns and desired results.
Some clients notice improvements in skin hydration and radiance within the first few weeks of treatment.
However, Profhilo works gradually by supporting the skin’s natural collagen and elastin production. For optimal results, a course of two treatments, approximately four weeks apart, is generally recommended.
More noticeable improvements in skin firmness, smoothness and elasticity typically develop in the weeks following your second appointment.
Results vary between individuals and maintenance treatments may be recommended to help preserve the benefits.
Profhilo involves a series of small injections at carefully selected points on the face. Most clients experience only mild discomfort, and numbing cream can be applied beforehand if required.
Following treatment, you may notice small raised bumps at the injection sites, temporary redness, tenderness, swelling or occasional bruising. These effects usually settle within a few days.
As with any injectable procedure, there are also less common risks, including infection and allergic reactions. Your practitioner will explain these during your consultation.
Most clients can return to their normal daily activities shortly afterwards, although you should follow the aftercare guidance provided by your practitioner.
At Spa-licious in Gerrards Cross, Buckinghamshire, Profhilo treatments start from £250 per session, according to our published treatment prices.
For optimal results, we generally recommend two treatments spaced approximately four weeks apart. Your total treatment cost will depend on your personalised treatment plan.
Before starting, you’ll have a consultation with our experienced aesthetic practitioner to discuss your skin concerns, assess your suitability and explain the expected results.

You will be invited for a thorough consultation at our skin clinic in Gerrards Cross. This is to discuss your skin concerns, treatment goals, how Profhilo® works and pre and post-treatment care. Once complete and your suitability for Profhilo® is confirmed, treatment can start.
Lying down on the clinic couch, your face will be thoroughly cleansed of any make-up and impurities. To make sure you are comfortable, a numbing cream can be applied beforehand. The treatment is brief, lasting only around 15 minutes, during which our highly trained aesthetician will inject at five key points on either side of the face. Due to the HA concentrate’s free flowing consistency, only minimum injections are needed, making it a quicker and more comfortable procedure than a lot of other injectables.
There is minimum downtime with Profhilo®, so it usually fine to go about your day as normal. It is best to stay make up free, but if you want to re-apply your look, we recommend opting for light mineral make up.
