Nurse-led Profhilo treatment in Carrickfergus

Small bumps at the injection sites typically last 12 to 24 hours. Beyond that there is very little to notice. Many people book a treatment and carry on with their day.

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.

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.

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 Carrickfergus clients.

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.

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.

No. Because it is non-volumising, it does not add fullness. The change people notice is a firmer, better-hydrated quality to the skin rather than any alteration in shape.

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.

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

Yes. Profhilo sequences well with several other treatments, and Lauren will plan the order so each one has room to work rather than doing everything at once.

Booking is through the online system, where you can pick a consultation or treatment slot that suits you. Lauren confirms the appointment and sends the studio address. You can also call or message if you would rather talk it through first.

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