Profhilo Aftercare Guide


At LAB Expert Aesthetics, we are proud to offer Profhilo, an innovative treatment designed to deeply hydrate the skin, boost collagen production, and improve skin elasticity. Profhilo is a revolutionary bio-remodelling treatment that works beneath the skin’s surface to rejuvenate and refresh your complexion. However, to get the most out of this treatment, it’s essential to follow the proper aftercare steps.

In this guide, we’ll walk you through the best aftercare practices for Profhilo to help you achieve radiant, youthful skin while minimizing side effects.


What Is Profhilo?

Before diving into aftercare, it’s important to understand how Profhilo works. Unlike traditional dermal fillers, Profhilo is a unique hyaluronic acid-based treatment that spreads beneath the skin, enhancing hydration and stimulating the production of collagen and elastin. It’s injected in five specific points on each side of the face (known as the Bio Aesthetic Points), where it gradually spreads and rejuvenates the skin.

Profhilo provides natural, glowing results, but like any treatment, aftercare is key to maximizing its benefits and ensuring the best possible outcome.


Why Is Profhilo Aftercare Important?

Aftercare is essential for ensuring the treatment integrates well into your skin, while also minimizing the chances of side effects such as swelling, bruising, or infection. Proper aftercare also helps prolong the effects of the treatment, leaving your skin looking refreshed for months.

Here are the most important aftercare steps to follow after your Profhilo treatment.


1. Avoid Touching or Massaging the Injection Sites

After your Profhilo treatment, it’s crucial to avoid touching, pressing, or massaging the treated areas for 24 hours. This allows the product to spread evenly and settle naturally within the skin. Excessive touching could cause irritation or contamination, increasing the risk of infection.


2. Skip Makeup for 24 Hours

To reduce the risk of irritation and infection, avoid applying makeup or using any skincare products on the treated area for at least 24 hours. If you must wear makeup after this period, make sure to use clean brushes and avoid heavy formulations that could clog pores.


3. Avoid Strenuous Activities

We recommend avoiding any strenuous activities, such as exercise, gym workouts, or heavy lifting, for 24-48 hours after your treatment. Increased blood circulation from exercise can exacerbate swelling or bruising and may interfere with the distribution of the product.


4. Stay Hydrated and Moisturize

Since Profhilo is designed to boost hydration from within the skin, it’s important to stay well-hydrated by drinking plenty of water. Hydration aids in the healing process and maximizes the hydrating effects of the hyaluronic acid. Additionally, you can apply a gentle, hydrating moisturizer to keep your skin soft and supple.


5. Avoid Sun Exposure and Heat Treatments

For at least 48 hours after your Profhilo treatment, it’s important to avoid direct sun exposure, tanning beds, saunas, steam rooms, and hot baths. Heat can exacerbate swelling and irritation and may negatively impact the treatment’s effects. If you need to go outside, always wear a broad-spectrum SPF 30 or higher to protect your skin from harmful UV rays.


6. No Facials or Skin Treatments for a Week

To ensure the Profhilo treatment settles effectively into the skin, avoid any other facial treatments for at least one week. This includes facials, chemical peels, laser treatments, or microdermabrasion. These treatments can disturb the product and interfere with the rejuvenation process.


7. Be Patient – Results Take Time

Profhilo works gradually, and it’s important to be patient as the treatment takes effect. You may notice an initial glow after your first session, but the full results—such as smoother, firmer, and more hydrated skin—typically become visible 4-6 weeks after your second treatment session. Remember, this treatment is designed to improve your skin’s health from within, so results are gradual but long-lasting.


8. Schedule Your Follow-Up Session

For optimal results, Profhilo is typically administered over two sessions, spaced four weeks apart. This two-part treatment allows the hyaluronic acid to fully integrate into the skin, offering long-lasting hydration and firming effects. Make sure to schedule your follow-up session to get the best out of your treatment.


What to Expect After Your Profhilo Treatment

It’s normal to experience mild swelling, bruising, or redness at the injection sites immediately after your Profhilo treatment. These side effects are usually temporary and should resolve within 24-48 hours.

If you notice any of the following more severe side effects, please contact us at LAB Expert Aesthetics immediately:

  • Severe swelling or redness

  • Signs of infection (e.g., increased warmth, pus, or persistent pain at the injection sites)

  • Unusual lumpiness or firmness that doesn’t settle within a few days


How to Prolong the Results of Your Profhilo Treatment

Profhilo offers long-lasting results, but there are steps you can take to maintain your glowing, youthful skin for even longer:

  • Stay Hydrated: Continue to drink plenty of water to support the hyaluronic acid’s hydrating effects.

  • Healthy Skincare Routine: Use gentle, hydrating skincare products to nourish your skin from the outside. Ingredients like hyaluronic acid and ceramides can boost the hydrating benefits of Profhilo.

  • Sun Protection: UV rays accelerate skin aging and damage collagen, so always wear a broad-spectrum sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher, even on cloudy days.

  • Healthy Lifestyle: Eating a balanced diet, avoiding smoking, and managing stress all contribute to healthier skin and prolonged results.

  • Maintenance Treatments: Depending on your skin’s needs, we recommend Profhilo maintenance treatments every 6-12 months to keep your skin hydrated and firm.
