Profhilo, Millbank

If you are looking into Profhilo treatment around Millbank, the first thing worth knowing is that NUA is a private nurse-led studio rather than a salon or a high street chain.

Book ConsultationAbout Profhilo

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.

Appointments run from a private home studio in Carryduff. Millbank clients often book alongside neighbours from Newtownabbey and Greenisland, and parking is straightforward.

Why Millbank clients choose NUA

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 Millbank 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 Millbank clients ask about Profhilo treatment

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.

Will it make my face look bigger or puffy?

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.

Is there parking available?

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

What if Profhilo treatment is not right for me?

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.

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 Millbank clients see the same practitioner from consultation through to review.

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.

How many treatments will I need?

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.

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.

How long do results last?

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

Is Profhilo safe for all skin types?

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.

Is there any downtime?

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.

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 Millbank clients.
