Profhilo in Hillsborough

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.

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.

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

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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

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

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 Hillsborough clients.
