As non-surgical treatments for facial rejuvenation continue to rise in popularity, two treatments stand out: Profhilo and dermal fillers. While both are designed to refresh and rejuvenate your skin, they work in different ways, and it can be challenging to decide which one is best for you. At Dr. Wafaa Clinic in Reading, we offer both Profhilo and dermal fillers, ensuring that each client receives a personalised treatment plan tailored to their unique skin needs.

What is Profhilo?

Profhilo is a revolutionary injectable treatment made of hyaluronic acid, which hydrates the skin and improves its elasticity. Unlike traditional dermal fillers, Profhilo is not used to add volume to specific areas of the face. Instead, it spreads evenly under the skin, providing an all-over boost to hydration and skin tone. It works by stimulating the natural production of collagen and elastin, which are essential for maintaining youthful skin.

Profhilo is ideal for individuals experiencing skin laxity or those who want to improve the overall quality of their skin without adding volume. It’s particularly effective on the face, neck, and hands and is known for delivering natural, subtle results with minimal downtime.

What are Dermal Fillers?

Dermal fillers, on the other hand, are designed to add volume to specific areas of the face. These fillers, typically made from hyaluronic acid or other biocompatible substances, are injected into areas that have lost volume due to aging, such as the cheeks, lips, and nasolabial folds. Dermal fillers are excellent for contouring and shaping the face, restoring youthful plumpness, and smoothing out deep wrinkles.

At Dr. Wafaa Clinic, we use high-quality fillers like like teoxane, belotero from Merz, Stylage from Vivacy, and also Radiesse, ensuring long-lasting and natural-looking results. Unlike Profhilo, dermal fillers provide instant results, making them a popular choice for individuals looking for quick enhancements.

Which is Right for You?

The choice between Profhilo and dermal fillers depends on your specific skin concerns. If you’re looking for an all-over improvement in skin hydration, elasticity, and texture, Profhilo may be the best option for you. However, if you want to target specific areas of the face to restore lost volume or smooth deeper wrinkles, dermal fillers are more appropriate.
