Profhilo is an injectable skin rejuvenation treatment available at Wycherleys Dental Practice in Newport. Unlike traditional dermal fillers, it is designed to improve overall skin quality rather than add volume or change facial shape. Dr Estelle Edgington provides Profhilo treatment using a high concentration of hyaluronic acid, a substance naturally present within the skin that plays a key role in hydration, firmness and elasticity.
As we age, natural hyaluronic acid levels gradually decline, leading to dehydration, loss of firmness and a dull skin appearance. Profhilo works by stimulating the skin from within, encouraging the natural production of collagen and elastin while deeply hydrating the skin. This can result in smoother, firmer and more radiant-looking skin while maintaining a natural appearance.
Profhilo is biocompatible and non-animal based, and does not require patch testing.
Profhilo is used to improve skin texture, hydration and elasticity in areas where early signs of ageing are becoming visible. It is commonly applied to the face, neck and décolletage, helping to address concerns such as skin laxity, fine lines and dryness.
Rather than filling individual lines, Profhilo spreads evenly beneath the skin, enhancing overall skin quality. Results develop gradually over several weeks as the skin responds to the treatment, with improvements typically lasting up to six months.
Your consultation with Dr Estelle Edgington at Wycherley’s Dental Practice in Newport will focus on understanding your skin concerns and desired outcomes. During this appointment, you’ll have the opportunity to ask questions and discuss whether Profhilo is the right treatment for you. The treatment process will be explained in full, along with aftercare guidance, expected results and any potential side effects. A review of your medical history will also take place to ensure the treatment is suitable.
Profhilo delivers intense hydration by releasing hyaluronic acid evenly throughout the skin. This helps the skin retain moisture more effectively, improving comfort, smoothness and overall radiance. The result is skin that feels healthier and looks visibly refreshed.
By stimulating collagen and elastin production, Profhilo helps strengthen the skin’s underlying structure. This improves firmness and elasticity, giving the skin a more youthful, resilient appearance over time.
Profhilo enhances skin quality without adding volume or altering facial contours. Results are subtle and natural, making it ideal for those seeking refreshed skin rather than a dramatic change.
Profhilo is a minimally invasive treatment, allowing most patients to return to their usual activities shortly after their appointment. This makes it a convenient option for those with busy schedules.
