Waterfoot, County Antrim
Profhilo in Waterfoot
There is no shortage of places offering Profhilo treatment across County Antrim. What differs is who is holding the needle and how much time they give you.
In short: ultra-pure hyaluronic acid that remodels ageing skin and treats laxity by stimulating your own collagen and elastin, without adding volume. Lauren will tell you if it is not the right treatment for you, which happens more often than you might expect.
Appointments run from a private home studio in Carryduff. Waterfoot clients often book alongside neighbours from Gracehill and Broughshane, and parking is straightforward.
A nurse-led approach
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 Waterfoot clients have left a first appointment with a skincare plan and no treatment booked.
What Profhilo involves
Assessment
Lauren assesses skin laxity, hydration and texture, and confirms Profhilo is the right choice rather than a volumising treatment.
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.
Second session
A second treatment four weeks later. Two sessions is the standard protocol and both are needed for the full effect.
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
Profhilo questions, answered for Waterfoot
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 Waterfoot clients.
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.
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.
Does it hurt?
There are only ten injection points in total, five per side, so it is quick. Most people describe brief discomfort rather than pain.
Can I have Profhilo alongside lines and wrinkles treatment?
Yes. They address completely different things, one skin quality and one muscle movement, so they work well together. Lauren will space them appropriately.
How long do results last?
Results usually last six to nine months. Maintenance is discussed at your review so you can plan around it.
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.
Do you offer Profhilo treatment to clients in Waterfoot?
Yes. NUA Aesthetic treats clients from across County Antrim, including Waterfoot. Treatments are carried out at the private studio in Carryduff, and the address is confirmed when you book.
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 Waterfoot clients see the same practitioner from consultation through to review.
How does it compare with polynucleotides?
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.
