Profhilo for Donegore and County Antrim

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.

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.

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.

Yes, parking is straightforward at the studio, which is one of the practical advantages over a town centre clinic for anyone driving in from Donegore.

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

Lauren, every time. She is an NMC registered nurse and CIDESCO qualified skin specialist. There is no rotating team, so Donegore 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 Donegore who would rather not take time off work.

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

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.

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.

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.
