Profhilo Structura is an injectable treatment that helps restore lost volume in deeper layers of the skin. It uses 90mg of stabilised hyaluronic acid to trigger fat cell renewal, support adipose tissue regeneration and strengthen skin from within. This bioremodeling treatment works by activating fibroblasts and encouraging the production of collagen types I, II, IV, and VII to restore lost volume and improve skin structure from within.

Indications for Profhilo Structura 

Volume loss in specific areas: Ideal for those who notice reduced fullness in regions like the buttocks, hands, or chest (décolletage).

Loose skin with more profound volume loss: Recommended if your skin feels loose and there’s also a loss of support underneath.

Fat loss due to ageing: Helpful for people who have lost volume in deeper fat layers (adipose tissue) over time leading to reduced support and contour. Lipo-lifting with Profhilo Structura may help restore volume in these areas.

After weight loss, it can benefit those who have lost a significant amount of weight and now notice sagging or deflation in certain areas due to reduced fat and support.

Benefits of Profhilo Structura 

Deep tissue regeneration: This treatment works deep under the skin to help restore natural volume by supporting adipose tissue regeneration, stimulating fat cells renewal, and strengthening support in the lower skin layers.

Improved skin firmness: It helps your body produce more collagen, which can gradually make your skin feel firmer and smoother over time.

Better skin hydration: The hyaluronic acid in Profhilo helps keep moisture in the skin’s deeper layers, which supports healthier-looking skin.

Lasting structural support: The effects continue even after the session, helping to rebuild and support skin structure for longer-lasting results.

Treatment Techniques

Profhilo Structura is carefully injected into the deeper layers of the skin using techniques designed to target areas where volume has been lost.

Targeted deep-layer placement: The treatment is injected into the lower layer of the skin (called the hypodermis), where it helps restore volume, support lipo-lifting, and encourage natural fat repositioning.

Strategic injection points: Specific spots on the face or body are chosen based on natural structure to ensure the treatment spreads evenly and works effectively.

Multi-level stimulation: The injection method supports both fat cell renewal and collagen production across different layers of tissue, helping to rebuild structure from within.

What to Expect after Profhilo Structura

First 48 Hours: You may have mild swelling or tenderness at the injection sites. Ice packs can help. Avoid exercise, saunas, and steam rooms to allow the treatment to settle.

2 to 8 Weeks: Your skin will gradually become firmer and fuller as your body produces more collagen and regenerates fat cells.

Follow-up Care: Your doctor will assess your progress and may recommend additional sessions. A long-term plan can be made to maintain your results.

Potential Risks and Complications

Profhilo Structura is generally well-tolerated, with most patients experiencing only mild, temporary effects such as slight swelling, bruising, or tenderness at the injection sites. These typically resolve within a few days. 

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

How many Profhilo Structura treatments will I need for optimal results? 

Most patients benefit from 2 to 3 sessions, spaced about 4 to 6 weeks apart. This allows for gradual biostimulation of fat tissue and structural regeneration. The exact number of sessions may vary depending on your level of volume loss, facial laxity, and treatment goals.

Your doctor will design a customised treatment plan tailored to your needs, and may also recommend combining with Profhilo (Classic) for full skin and structure rejuvenation.

Can Profhilo Structura be combined with other aesthetic treatments? 

Yes. Profhilo Structura is often incorporated into holistic aesthetic plans. It can be safely paired with:

• Energy-based devices (e.g, Ultherapy PRIME, Thermage, Inmode Morpheus8, Sylfirm X RF)
• Classic Profhilo (for dermal hydration and elasticity)
• Other Injectables (depending on treatment timing)

Your doctor will advise on the ideal sequencing to maximise results while respecting skin healing time.

How long before I see improvements in volume and skin quality? 

You may notice subtle improvements in contour and firmness within 2–4 weeks, but the full regenerative effects take time. Profhilo Structura works by stimulating the vitality of fat cells, improving skin tension, and redefining facial structure over 8–12 weeks.

For best results, Profhilo Structura is often combined with Classic Profhilo to address both deep structure and surface skin quality, giving you a more complete, natural-looking rejuvenation.
