Profhilo in Dún Laoghaire

Profhilo is an injectable treatment made of hyaluronic acid that spreads under the skin to improve hydration and skin quality. Unlike filler, it does not add shape or volume. The aim is skin that looks fresher and more supple.

Every aesthetic treatment starts with a consultation with Dr Godara (€100, redeemable against treatment). You are never asked to decide on the day, and every treatment includes a follow-up review at no extra cost.

Who it may suit

Profhilo may suit people whose skin looks dull or dehydrated, or has lost some firmness, for example with age or after menopause. It can be used on the face and neck. Read more about menopause and skin.

What happens at your appointment

A small amount is injected at five points on each side of the face (or the neck). Treatment takes about 15 minutes. A course is usually two sessions about four weeks apart.

Results and how long they last

Improvement is gradual over the weeks after treatment. Results typically last around six months, and many people have a maintenance session twice a year.

Possible side effects

  • Small raised bumps at the injection points, usually settling within a day or two
  • Redness, tenderness and bruising
  • Rarely, infection or an allergic reaction
