Injectable Glow
Glowing, healthy skin, that looks like you’ve gotten your eight hours religiously for the last week? These treatments are quickly becoming some of our most popular, and it is easy to see why.
Skin boosters and injectable skincare work beautifully on their own, or in combination with other treatments, to give you that dewy, radiant skin you’ve always dreamed of. Hyaluronic acid is present in your skin naturally, and although it may also be in your moisturiser, it has a hard time penetrating you skin and getting where it needs to go to give you that youthful glow. Collagen is a critical part of the structure of the dermis, and gives our skin it’s plumpness. Injecting hydration and stimulating collagen production all at once, you can now cheat your way to glowing skin.
Profhilo
Bioremodelling is an innovative approach to anti-aging and skin health by HA-Derma. Very tiny amounts of pure hyaluronic acid are injected into the dermis to hydrate skin, and stimulate the formation of collagen. 2-3 sessions a month apart are recommended, with one treatment every 3-4months to maintain results. Profhilo can be used on the face, neck & décolletage, to give an overall glow and create improvements in skin texture and elasticity. A specially developed injection technique reduces downtime, making it the perfect lunch-time procedure.

FAQ's
What are skinboosters and injectable skincare?
They are not “botox” or anti-wrinkle injections, and they are most certainly not filler. They cannot change your face shape or affect the expressions your muscles make. They are made of hyaluronic acid (like in your own body, and maybe your moisturiser) and sometimes some amino acids and vitamins. Injecting them into your skin allows us to get them to the level of your skin that they need to get to. Your skin itself is a barrier, and doesn’t always absorb all the wonderful products you might put on it - and that is where injectable skincare comes in.
What does it do?
These injectables boost the skin’s hydration, help stimulate collagen and improve skin texture, elasticity, skin quality and light reflection. You can think of it as a face mask treatment that lasts for months!
When do I see the results?
This depends on your starting point, your existing levels of collagen (collagen levels are lowered by the “S”s - smoking, sugar, sun damage and stress), and your age, and capacity to generate collagen. These treatments are hydrating, and stimulatory. By stimulatory, we mean that it stimulates the formation of collagen in your body, but it can take two to four weeks to see the effect of this in the
skin, with increased collagen levels. Older patients or those with more damaged skin
may need further treatments to achieve best results, but hydration kicks in around one
week after treatment, and results improve over the course of three to four weeks. These
treatments can be supercharged with collagen supplementation , to maximise your
body’s production of collagen and elastin.
How long does treatment last?
This depends on you! Because these treatments help stimulate collagen - longevity can depend on how well your body is able to produce it, and on lifestyle factors like sun exposure, smoking, stress and sugar consumption. Generally, three to four months is the results time, with treatment advised again at this point to maintain results. This time frame can be up to six months in some lucky patients, but others look for repeat treatment at about three months.
