Profhilo
in Durham
Firmer, brighter, better-hydrated skin, without changing your face. The original bio-remodelling skin booster.
Book a ConsultationProfhilo is one of the most popular skin treatments in the UK, and for good reason. It is a pure hyaluronic acid injectable that spreads through the skin to restore hydration and support firmness, so skin looks smoother, plumper and more radiant without any added volume.
At The Aesthetic Surgery, in the Lanchester Valley minutes from Durham city centre, Profhilo is always consultation-led. If another treatment would suit your skin better, such as our Aquashine skin boosters or polynucleotides, we will tell you.
Common reasons people choose Profhilo
Bio-remodelling, not filling
Profhilo contains a high concentration of hyaluronic acid in a unique, stable form. A small amount is placed at set points on each side of the face, then it spreads naturally through the surrounding tissue.
As well as hydrating the skin, it is designed to support the skin's own collagen and elastin. That is why results build gradually over the weeks after treatment rather than appearing all at once.

At a glance
A proper conversation
Profhilo may suit adults who want better skin quality rather than a change in shape. It is not carried out during pregnancy or breastfeeding, over active skin infection, or where certain medical conditions or medications make it unsuitable. We check all of this carefully at consultation.
Informed decisions matter
Temporary redness, small bumps at the injection points, tenderness and bruising are common and usually settle quickly. Less common risks include infection, lumps and allergic reaction. As Best Safety-Led Aesthetics Clinic 2026 in the North East, we only use genuine, traceable products and explain the warning signs and how to reach us before you go ahead.

No. Profhilo is a skin booster rather than a filler. It spreads through the skin to improve hydration, firmness and texture, without adding volume or changing your face shape.
It involves a small number of injections, so you may feel a brief sting. Most people find it very manageable and it is usually over within a few minutes.
Skin often looks more hydrated within a couple of weeks. The fuller improvement in firmness and texture builds over the following weeks and is usually best around four weeks after your second session.
You may have small raised bumps where the product was placed for up to 24 hours, and occasionally some bruising. Most people carry on with their day straight afterwards.
Yes. We only use genuine, fully traceable Profhilo from UK suppliers, with batch details recorded in your treatment notes.
