Administed via special 'bio aesthetic points', Profhilo works by stimulating four different types of collagen and elastin, the building blocks of youthful, plump skin. The slow release of the high hyaluronic acid concentration results in a tightening, brightening, and lifting effect. Profhilo is not a bio-revitaliser, skin booster, or dermal filler and rather, has a category all to itself: Profhilo is a bioremodeller - literally remodelling the skin from within.
