Profhilo Treatment in Basingstoke
At Hampshire Dental Care, we offer Profhilo treatment in Basingstoke – a revolutionary injectable designed for skin remodelling, hydration and tightening. Whether you're concerned about ageing skin on the face, neck or hands, Profhilo delivers transformative results without altering your natural features.
What Is Profhilo?
Profhilo is an award-winning injectable skin booster made from ultra-pure hyaluronic acid. Unlike traditional fillers, it doesn’t add volume. Instead, it stimulates collagen and elastin production in the skin, improving firmness, hydration, and overall skin quality.
Think of it as an injectable moisturiser that works from the inside out – perfect for patients seeking subtle rejuvenation and long-lasting glow.
Profhilo Benefits
- Deep hydration for dull or dry skin
- Improved skin tone, texture, and elasticity
- Gentle skin tightening effect on sagging areas
- Softens fine lines and crepey skin
- Supports natural skin remodelling
- Suitable for face, neck, hands, and body
If you're wondering, "Does Profhilo plump skin?" – the answer is yes, subtly. While it won’t change facial shape, it restores lost elasticity and gives a natural, plumped glow.
Profhilo for Face, Neck, and Hands
Face
Profhilo rejuvenates tired, sagging skin, reduces fine lines and restores glow – particularly in the cheeks, jawline, and around the mouth.
Neck
Often one of the first areas to show age, the neck benefits from Profhilo’s tightening and firming effects. It reduces crepiness and improves elasticity without surgery.
Hands
Restore youthful texture and hydration to the hands, where thin, dry skin is common with age.
Profhilo Body and Sculptra
We also offer Profhilo Body, designed for larger areas like the upper arms, chest, and abdomen. It delivers deep hydration and skin tightening in regions prone to crepey texture.
While Profhilo improves skin quality, it can be combined with Sculptra for patients seeking both volumisation and bio-stimulation – a powerful duo for advanced anti-ageing.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does Profhilo last?
After completing the initial two-treatment course, results typically last 6 to 9 months, depending on your skin type, age, and lifestyle. Maintenance treatments are recommended twice a year.
Does Profhilo tighten skin?
Yes, Profhilo stimulates natural skin tightening by encouraging elastin and collagen production. It gently lifts and firms areas like the neck, jowls and hands.
Does Profhilo plump the skin?
It doesn’t plump in the same way dermal fillers do, but it hydrates and restores volume subtly, giving the skin a fresher, more luminous appearance.
Is Profhilo safe?
Yes, Profhilo is CE-marked and used globally in aesthetic medicine. It is biocompatible and free from additives, making it suitable even for sensitive skin.
Can Profhilo be combined with other treatments?
Absolutely. Profhilo can be combined with anti-wrinkle injections, dermal fillers, or Sculptra for enhanced anti-ageing results. Your clinician will recommend a personalised plan based on your goals.
What is Profhilo Body?
Profhilo Body is a formulation of the same technology designed for use on larger areas like the chest, arms, or stomach – delivering powerful skin tightening and hydration in those zones.
Is there any downtime?
Downtime is minimal. Some redness, swelling, or small bumps at injection sites may appear but typically fade within 24-48 hours.
