What should you know about profhilo facial injections?

The injector reviews your skin, facial movement, previous procedures and treatment goals before marking injection points. Profhilo is intended to improve skin quality rather than act like a conventional filler that adds defined shape. The face may feel tender, look swollen or show small raised points immediately afterwards; these effects usually settle as the skin recovers.

Dryness, fine lines and changes related to sun exposure may be discussed during assessment. A plan should explain which areas are included and whether another session or review is appropriate for your skin.

Use a qualified medical professional and disclose allergies, active skin irritation, cold sores, previous filler, pregnancy or breastfeeding, and medicines that influence bleeding. Arrive with clean skin and follow the clinic’s advice about makeup, exercise, heat and pressure after treatment. Do not rub injection sites or add another cosmetic procedure until the recommended recovery period has passed.

Ask for the product name and written aftercare. Keep the clinic’s contact details available, especially if swelling or discomfort changes after you leave.

Get prompt advice for increasing pain, spreading redness, warmth or discharge. Seek urgent care for severe pain, skin that turns pale or dusky, blistering, vision changes, facial weakness or difficulty speaking. Rare but serious injection complications can require rapid assessment, so do not wait for a routine appointment when these signs appear.

Ask what Profhilo can and cannot change, why each facial area has been selected, how long visible swelling may last, what alternatives exist, and how complications are handled. Clarify who will provide follow-up if the result is uneven or the skin becomes unusually painful.
