What is Profhilo Structura?
Profhilo Structura is a newer addition to the Profhilo range, available at Le Petit Saint in Mayfair. It shares Profhilo's hyaluronic acid skin-booster technology, with a formulation designed to offer more structural support, particularly suited to the jawline and lower face.
Frequently Asked Questions
How Does Profhilo Structura Work?
Like Profhilo, Structura uses stabilised hyaluronic acid to support the skin's own collagen and elastin production. Its formulation is designed to offer more structural support than standard Profhilo, making it suited to areas where skin laxity is more of a concern, such as the jawline.
Which Areas Does Profhilo Structura Treat?
Profhilo Structura is most commonly used on the jawline and lower face, where skin laxity is a concern.
Who Performs Profhilo Structura at Le Petit Saint?
Profhilo Structura is administered by our Aesthetic Doctors following a private consultation at our Mayfair clinic, 49 Charles Street, London W1J 5EN.
Who Is This Treatment Suitable For?
Profhilo Structura is generally well suited to those noticing laxity or softening along the jawline and lower face, who are looking for a non-surgical way to support firmness in this area. Suitability is confirmed at consultation.
How Is Profhilo Structura Different From Standard Profhilo?
Standard Profhilo is designed to improve overall skin hydration and quality across the face, neck and décolletage. Structura's formulation is designed to offer more structural support, making it particularly suited to firmer areas of concern such as the jawline. The two are often used together as part of a broader treatment plan.
How Is Profhilo Structura Different From Dermal Fillers?
Dermal fillers add volume by physically filling space beneath the skin. Profhilo Structura is not a volumising filler; it works by supporting the skin's own structure and firmness rather than adding bulk.
Is Profhilo Structura Painful?
Most patients describe mild discomfort or stinging at the injection points. Your Aesthetic Doctor can discuss comfort options and what to expect at your consultation.
How Many Sessions Will I Need?
An initial course of two sessions, typically around four weeks apart, is recommended, often alongside standard Profhilo as part of a broader skin quality plan. Your Aesthetic Doctor will confirm a schedule suited to your goals.
When Will I See Results, and How Long Do They Last?
Results build progressively, with improvements in firmness and definition typically developing over the weeks following treatment. Individual results and their duration vary; your Aesthetic Doctor will discuss a realistic timeline at consultation.
Is Profhilo Structura Right for Me?
The best way to find out is a private consultation with one of our Aesthetic Doctors, who can assess your jawline and facial structure in person.
