As summer in London gets going, it’s time to get glowing ( at Mallucci London we love Profhilo ). Our skin is our body’s largest organ – an average of 21 square feet, to be exact. Whatever goes on in the inside shows up on the outside.
There are many things we can do ourselves to ensure that we are taking care of our skin – regular exercise helps maintain healthy circulation and blood flow throughout your body, drinking sufficient amounts of water will keep your skin hydrated and a healthy diet will ensure your skin is being fed the nutrients it needs. But there are some patients who are always looking for an additional skin booster to ensure their complexion glows!
Mallucci London now offers an award-winning treatment called Profhilo. A specially developed injectable designed to deliver high levels of ULTRAPURE hyaluronic acid directly into the skin, creating an instantly glowing appearance. Profhilo also treats moderate signs of ageing, poor skin texture and loss of elasticity. By injecting the concentrated levels of hyaluronic acid directly into the dermis, dehydrated skin can now be addressed with this simple non-invasive procedure. Profhilo can safely and effectively treat the face, neck, décolleté and hands.

Profhilo minimises the need for multiple injection sites keeping it as pain-free as possible. Although most patients find the procedure very tolerable, you may feel a slight ‘pinch’ as the ultra-fine needle is inserted. A topical numbing agent can be applied upon request.
The risk of side effects is low but may include; mild redness, itching, discolouration or tenderness at the injection site. Side effects, if any, should subside quickly.
