Profhilo for Atticall and County Down

It is one of the most biocompatible treatments available, because it is a highly purified form of hyaluronic acid with no chemical cross-linking agents. That makes it extremely well tolerated across most skin types.

Profhilo works primarily through deep hydration and a lifting effect on laxity. Polynucleotides work primarily through cellular repair and regeneration. Where skin is thin, fragile or damaged, polynucleotides often come first. Where the main issue is laxity and dehydration, Profhilo is usually the better starting point.

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

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

Yes. NUA Aesthetic treats clients from across County Down, including Atticall. Treatments are carried out at the private studio in Carryduff, and the address is confirmed when you book.

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

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

Then Lauren will say so at the consultation and talk through what would suit your skin better. Being told no is a reasonable outcome of an honest assessment, and it happens regularly.

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.

Two treatments to start, spaced four weeks apart, followed by maintenance every six months. Both initial sessions are needed, one on its own will not deliver the full effect.

Usually six to nine months, which makes it a strong option for long-term skin quality maintenance rather than a short-lived fix.

Minimal. Small bumps at injection points for 12 to 24 hours. Aftercare guidance is given at the appointment, and Lauren is contactable afterwards if anything concerns you.
