Aging isn’t just about facial wrinkles; our neck and hands often show the earliest and most noticeable signs of aging. This is where Profhilo Neck and Hands treatments come in.

Profhilo for Neck and Hands: Targeting the Forgotten Signs of Aging

 

Aging isn’t just about facial wrinkles; our neck and hands often show the earliest and most noticeable signs of aging. These areas are often overlooked in skincare routines, leaving them vulnerable to fine lines, loss of elasticity, and sagging skin. This is where Profhilo Neck and Hands treatments come in—providing a much-needed solution to rejuvenate these often-forgotten areas.

 

Why Profhilo for Neck and Hands?

 

Profhilo is an innovative injectable treatment composed of stabilized hyaluronic acid (HA). Unlike traditional fillers, Profhilo does not add volume but instead stimulates collagen and elastin production, offering a bioremodeling effect. It's perfect for delicate areas like the neck and hands, which tend to be more prone to thin, sagging skin and fine lines. The Profhilo Neck and Hands treatment addresses these concerns, restoring hydration, firmness, and elasticity without the heaviness of fillers.

 

How Profhilo Works on the Neck and Hands

 

Profhilo works by releasing slow-acting hyaluronic acid into the skin, which encourages natural skin regeneration over time. The treatment spreads evenly beneath the skin to boost hydration and improve skin texture.

Profhilo Benefits

Profhilo is typically administered in two sessions spaced about four weeks apart. Each session delivers a hydrating dose of hyaluronic acid that works with the body’s natural processes to restore youthful appearance to the neck and hands.

 

Profhilo Neck and Hands: A Two-Step Process

 

# 1. The Initial Treatment

During the first session, Profhilo is injected into strategic points in the neck or hands using a very fine needle. The injection sites are carefully selected to ensure even distribution of the hyaluronic acid beneath the skin. Patients often notice an immediate improvement in skin texture and hydration.

 

# 2. The Follow-Up Session

Approximately four weeks later, a second treatment is administered. This follow-up session reinforces the initial results and stimulates further collagen and elastin production. The full effects are typically seen within two months, with optimal results lasting up to six months.

 

Why the Neck and Hands Show Signs of Aging First

 

The neck and hands are some of the first places where the signs of aging become apparent. Unlike the face, the skin in these areas is thinner, has fewer oil glands, and is exposed to UV light and environmental stressors more frequently. These factors make the neck and hands more susceptible to fine lines, dryness, and loss of elasticity.

Constant movement, sun exposure, thin skin

Profhilo Neck and Hands: The Procedure

 

The Profhilo Neck and Hands treatment is quick and minimally invasive. Each session takes about 30 minutes, with little to no downtime required afterward. Most patients report mild swelling or redness at the injection sites, but these side effects typically resolve within 24 hours.

 

Benefits of Profhilo for Neck and Hands

 

-       Deep Hydration: Profhilo delivers an intense boost of hydration to the neck and hands, smoothing fine lines and restoring moisture.

 

-       Increased Firmness and Elasticity: By stimulating collagen and elastin production, Profhilo helps to firm the skin and improve elasticity, giving the neck and hands a more youthful appearance.

 

-       Natural Results: Profhilo does not add volume like traditional fillers. Instead, it rejuvenates the skin from within, creating a natural, youthful glow.

 

-       Minimal Downtime: The procedure is quick, with little to no downtime, making it a convenient option for busy patients.

 

Long-Term Benefits of Profhilo Neck and Hands

 

Profhilo offers both immediate and long-term benefits. Patients often notice a visible improvement in skin texture and hydration right after treatment, with full results developing over the following weeks as collagen and elastin production increase. Regular treatments can maintain these benefits, slowing the visible signs of aging in the neck and hands.
