Profhilo in Aldergrove

There is no shortage of places offering Profhilo treatment across County Antrim. What differs is who is holding the needle and how much time they give you.

The treatment itself: ultra-pure hyaluronic acid that remodels ageing skin and treats laxity by stimulating your own collagen and elastin, without adding volume. What that means in practice is discussed at your consultation, in plain terms.

NUA operates by appointment only from a private studio in Carryduff. For Aldergrove clients that means a calm, discreet setting rather than a busy clinic, and an address shared on confirmation.

Serving Aldergrove and the surrounding area

Consultations are included, unhurried and honest. If Profhilo treatment is not the right treatment for your skin, or not the right treatment yet, you will be told so rather than sold something. Several Aldergrove clients have left a first appointment with a skincare plan and no treatment booked.

What Profhilo involves

  1. Assessment

    Lauren assesses skin laxity, hydration and texture, and confirms Profhilo is the right choice rather than a volumising treatment.

  2. Treatment

    Five precise injection points per side, placed at recognised anatomical positions. The product then spreads naturally through the tissue. The appointment takes around thirty minutes.

  3. Second session

    A second treatment four weeks later. Two sessions is the standard protocol and both are needed for the full effect.

  4. Maintenance

    Results usually hold for six to nine months. Most people maintain with a single session every six months.

Who it suits

  • Skin that feels dehydrated no matter what you put on it
  • Crepey texture on the face, neck or decolletage
  • Loss of firmness and elasticity rather than loss of volume
  • Fine lines and wrinkles driven by poor skin quality
  • Anyone wanting improvement without any change to face shape

Questions Aldergrove clients ask about Profhilo treatment

Where exactly is the clinic if I am travelling from Aldergrove?

The studio is in Carryduff, County Down. It is a private home studio rather than a high street clinic, so the full address is sent on booking confirmation along with parking guidance.

How long do results last?

Results usually last six to nine months. Maintenance is discussed at your review so you can plan around it.

Does it hurt?

There are only ten injection points in total, five per side, so it is quick. Most people describe brief discomfort rather than pain.

Can Profhilo be used on the neck?

Yes, and it is one of its strengths. The neck and decolletage are areas where volumising treatments tend to look wrong, but bio-remodelling improves crepey texture and laxity there very effectively.

Who will carry out my treatment?

Lauren, every time. She is an NMC registered nurse and CIDESCO qualified skin specialist. There is no rotating team, so Aldergrove clients see the same practitioner from consultation through to review.

Do I need a consultation before Profhilo treatment?

Yes. Every treatment includes a consultation so Lauren can assess your skin and confirm the plan is right for you. It is included in the appointment rather than charged separately.

Is Profhilo a filler?

No. While it contains high-concentration hyaluronic acid, it has no chemical cross-linking agents, so it spreads beneath the skin rather than holding a shape. It improves firmness and texture without physically altering your face shape or adding volume.

What age is Profhilo suitable for?

There is no set age. It is used both preventatively in people in their late twenties and thirties and correctively in older skin. Suitability depends on skin condition rather than birth date.

What are the appointment times like?

NUA runs by appointment only with flexible scheduling, including times outside standard working hours. That tends to suit clients travelling from Aldergrove who would rather not take time off work.

Can I have Profhilo alongside lines and wrinkles treatment?

Yes. They address completely different things, one skin quality and one muscle movement, so they work well together. Lauren will space them appropriately.

How much does Profhilo treatment cost?

Pricing is listed openly on this page and is the same for all clients regardless of where they travel from. There is no separate charge for the consultation and no call-out or travel fee for Aldergrove clients.

What exactly does Profhilo do?

It is an injectable hyaluronic acid treatment that acts as an internal moisturiser, stimulating your skin to produce its own collagen and elastin. This improves firmness, texture and overall hydration without changing your facial structure.
