How does Profhilo work?
Profhilo uses a unique combination of stabilised hyaluronic acid injected at strategic points to diffuse gradually through skin tissue. Its formulation spreads evenly without localised volume. It stimulates collagen- and elastin-producing fibroblasts and keratinocytes responsible for renewal. Hyaluronic acid also attracts water for deep hydration and improved quality. This dual hydration and biostimulation provides mild lifting, enhanced firmness and a younger appearance. Results develop over weeks alongside tissue regeneration.

The Profhilo® method: what
happens during injections
of hyaluronic acid in Geneva?
Before the session
At consultation, Dr Romano assesses quality, laxity and specific needs, confirming suitability and establishing a tailored protocol reflecting facial anatomy and goals. No special preparation is needed.
During the session
Office treatment generally lasts around fifteen minutes. A fine needle or sometimes cannula is used with an adapted technique. Precise anatomical points follow a validated protocol for even distribution and optimal safety.
After the session
Activities resume immediately. Mild redness, slight swelling or small raised injection sites may occur within hours. These normal, temporary reactions disappear spontaneously within hours without downtime.
Injection protocol for
Profhilo®
The Profhilo® protocol is simple and scientifically established.
Two initial sessions are spaced around one month apart.
This essential interval allows gradual diffusion, natural regeneration and deep hydration with visibly improved quality, firmness and radiance.
Two annual maintenance sessions prolong and stabilise tone, luminosity and elasticity, preserving firm, hydrated, radiant skin long-term.
Results of Profhilo treatment
Initial results appear from the second week: more hydrated, supple, luminous skin. Firmness and elasticity improve progressively with subtle tightening without volume. Superficial wrinkles soften and skin becomes firmer and more even. Final effects appear after around one month, once fibroblasts produce sufficient collagen and elastin. Natural results preserve features while visibly improving quality, radiance, density and tone for discreet, elegant rejuvenation.
Effects average six to twelve months according to initial quality, age, lifestyle and skincare.
Benefits of Profhilo®
Profhilo® comprehensively revitalises through high hyaluronic acid concentration and biostimulation. Main benefits include:
- Deep hydration: lasting restoration improves comfort, suppleness and quality from early weeks.
- Firmness and texture: natural collagen and elastin stimulation firms and improves elasticity, making texture more uniform and progressively restoring tone.
- Fine-line prevention and reduction: biostimulation slows ageing mechanisms and limits early expression wrinkles and fine lines.
- Brighter complexion: hydrated, revitalised skin regains natural radiance, freshness and uniformity.
- Natural results: improved quality without changed volume or frozen expressions. Subtle, harmonious effects respect natural features.
- Excellent tolerability: thermal production without chemical cross-linking yields highly purified, biocompatible hyaluronic acid.
- Quick treatment without downtime: injections take minutes and usually allow immediate activities.
- Complementary ageing management: easily integrated with mesotherapy or other revitalisation to personalise optimal results.
Profhilo® or other aesthetic
treatments: what are the differences?
Profhilo differs from conventional Skinboosters through dual intense hydration and improved firmness and tone. Its patented high-concentration pure hyaluronic acid spreads evenly for genuine restructuring. Beyond hydration, it stimulates natural regeneration through collagen and elastin production.
Unlike volumising injections, it does not change volume or fill wrinkles. It renews tissue, improving quality, suppleness and radiance. Unlike botulinum toxin, it acts on skin structure rather than expression muscles.
Patient feedback
Patients frequently describe clearly improved quality, brighter complexion, more uniform texture and firmer skin without feature changes. They value simplicity, no downtime and discreet results. It particularly appeals to those seeking a natural, elegant approach respecting their appearance, with denser, smoother, visibly revitalised skin.
How much does a Profhilo session cost?
Profhilo costs 600 CHF per syringe. One to two may be needed per session depending on area and correction. At her Geneva consultation, Dr Romano assesses quality and expectations for a personalised quotation.

Frequently asked questions about Profhilo
Can Profhilo change facial features or create volume?
No. It improves texture, density and firmness without filling or changing morphology. Features remain natural without freezing or perceptible contour alteration.
Is time off activities needed?
Usually activities resume immediately. Mild redness, small swellings or bruises are temporary. Avoid intense exercise, sun, saunas or steam rooms for forty-eight hours.
Are Profhilo injections painful?
Most report no discomfort. Fine needles or cannulas and possible anaesthetic cream limit sensations.
How many sessions optimise results?
Two initially one month apart. Maintenance every six to twelve months generally preserves firmness, radiance and hydration according to quality and ageing rate.
When are initial results visible and how long do they last?
Usually from weeks two or three, with better hydration, suppleness and luminosity. Firmness, density and texture improve over weeks. Results average six to twelve months according to age, quality and lifestyle.
Can Profhilo accompany other aesthetic medicine treatments?
Yes: botulinum toxin, volumising hyaluronic acid, Skinboosters or laser. This addresses ageing comprehensively while respecting individual physiology.
What are Profhilo contraindications?
Active skin infection, component allergy, autoimmune disease, pregnancy or breastfeeding. Consultation checks contraindications and adapts protocols.
Will Profhilo completely eliminate wrinkles?
No. It does not erase deep wrinkles. High-concentration hyaluronic acid improves quality, hydration, elasticity and firmness. Pronounced wrinkles may require complementary hyaluronic acid or botulinum toxin.
Can Profhilo be used under the eyes?
No. Direct eye contour treatment is generally not recommended. Hyaluronic acid here must be injected deeply against bone (supraperiosteally) to limit swelling, bags and other effects. A Geneva aesthetic consultation determines the best treatment for eye anatomy.
