Book ConsultationAbout Profhilo

Ultra-pure hyaluronic acid that remodels ageing skin and treats laxity by stimulating your own collagen and elastin, without adding volume. Clients from Rasharkin are given the same consultation time as everyone else, which is to say as long as it takes to answer the questions properly.

Appointments run from a private home studio in Carryduff. Rasharkin clients often book alongside neighbours from Culnady and Martinstown, and parking is straightforward.

What to expect as a Rasharkin client

Treatments are carried out in a private home studio rather than a clinic floor, which most Rasharkin clients say is the part they did not expect to value. There is no reception, no overlap with other appointments, and no rush at the end.

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

What Rasharkin clients want to know about Profhilo treatment

What are the appointment times like?

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

How long do results last?

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

How long do results last?

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

What exactly does Profhilo do?

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.

Is there downtime?

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.

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.

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

Can I combine Profhilo treatment with other treatments?

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.

Where exactly is the clinic if I am travelling from Rasharkin?

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.

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.

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.

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.
