Profhilo® & Profhilo Structura®

Profhilo® is one of the most recognised and clinically trusted skin remodelling injectables available today. Unlike dermal fillers, which add volume in specific areas, Profhilo® works by releasing a high concentration of pure hyaluronic acid into the skin, stimulating collagen and elastin production and significantly improving skin hydration, firmness and elasticity.

At McKeown Medical, Profhilo® and Profhilo Structura® treatments are performed exclusively by Dr Sharon Ritchie, our aesthetic doctor with specialist expertise in skin boosters and regenerative injectable treatments. Sharon’s focus is on refining skin quality, strengthening tissue support and achieving natural, elegant results.

How Does It Work?

What is Profhilo®?

Profhilo is an injectable hyaluronic acid treatment designed to remodel the skin, improving texture, hydration and firmness from within. It spreads evenly across the tissue, making it extremely effective for treating crepey, lax, dehydrated or ageing skin — especially in areas where traditional fillers may look unnatural.

Profhilo is ideal for:

  • Face

  • Neck

  • Décolletage

  • Hands

  • Upper arms or areas with crepey skin

The result is radiant, firmer skin that looks well-hydrated and fresh — without adding volume.

What is Profhilo Structura®?

Profhilo Structura is the latest advancement in the Profhilo family, engineered specifically for deeper tissue support and structural lifting, especially in the mid-face and jawline.

Unlike classic Profhilo (which focuses on skin quality and hydration), Profhilo Structura:

  • penetrates deeper into the subcutaneous fat layer

  • improves skin firmness and elasticity by strengthening tissue support

  • adds subtle lift to areas affected by volume loss, sagging or hollowness

Structura is particularly suited to:

  • loss of mid-face structure

  • early jowling or jawline definition concerns

  • soft-tissue sagging without wanting filler

  • patients seeking regenerative lift, not volume

It is ideal for those who want an improvement in contour and support — without changing facial shape.

Many patients start with Profhilo to restore skin quality, then progress to Structura for deeper support — or combine the two as part of a regenerative treatment plan.

How does the treatment work?

Both Profhilo and Profhilo Structura are injected using a precise series of points that allow controlled release of hyaluronic acid. The product disperses naturally, stimulating collagen and elastin, improving hydration and restoring elasticity.

Treatments are quick (around 20 minutes) and involve minimal downtime, making them ideal for patients seeking visible improvement without disruption to daily life.

Which concerns can it treat?

  • Intense, long-lasting hydration

  • Improvement in fine lines and crepey texture

  • Firmer, tighter, more elastic skin

  • Subtle lifting effect (Structura)

  • No added volume — results appear natural and “undone”

  • No change to facial expressions or facial shape

Skin looks healthier, dewier and more refined — not “treated.”

Are you ready to start your consultation?

If you’re looking for fresher, smoother, more radiant skin — without volume — Profhilo® and Profhilo Structura® are powerful, regenerative options. Book your consultation with Dr Sharon today to explore the best treatment plan for your skin goals.

Treatment plan and pricing

Both treatments are typically performed as a course of two sessions, four weeks apart. Results improve gradually over 6–12 weeks as collagen and elastin are remade.

What to Expect

Your treatment

Downtime

Downtime is minimal. You may see small bumps at the injection points, particularly with classic Profhilo — these usually settle within a few hours.

Who performs the treatment?

All Profhilo and Profhilo Structura treatments are carried out by Dr Sharon Ritchie, our aesthetic doctor with specialist experience in advanced bio-stimulatory and regenerative injectables.

Dr Sharon’s approach prioritises skin quality, structure and natural results, avoiding over-filling or changing facial identity.

Common Questions

Does Profhilo replace filler?

No — it improves skin quality, firmness and hydration, but does not replace lost volume. Structura can provide subtle support and lift for patients who prefer not to have filler.

When will I see results?

Improvement in texture and hydration is usually visible within 1–2 weeks, with progressive tightening and firming over 8–12 weeks.

How long do results last?

Most patients maintain results with treatment every six months.

Can Profhilo be combined with other treatments?

Absolutely — it pairs beautifully with Sofwave, exosomes, polynucleotides and Halo/BBL treatments as part of a regenerative skin plan.
