Profhilo Structura

Profhilo Structura is a new-generation treatment created by the team behind Profhilo, designed for those who want subtle volumising without moving into dermal fillers. It sits between traditional skin boosters and fillers, using advanced hyaluronic acid technology to restore the superficial fat pads in the mid-face. This helps improve facial structure, soften hollows, and support areas that have started to descend with age.

Benefits of Profhilo Structura

  • Enhances hydration, firmness, and elasticity
  • Repositions and supports superficial fat pads
  • Minimal downtime and a low-risk treatment profile
  • Improves facial contour in a natural, understated way
  • Restores volume to areas affected by sinking or sagging
  • Suitable for patients who want regenerative results rather than traditional fillers

How Our Treatment Works

Structura combines high and low molecular weight hyaluronic acid for maximum regenerative effect. Once placed in the superficial fat layer, it helps replenish lost volume, support tissues that have descended, and improve the overall structure of the mid-face.

The product spreads evenly, encouraging the repositioning of tissues and improving skin quality. Clinical studies show improved firmness, hydration, and strengthened facial support over time, helping to delay age-related volume changes.

Treatment Session

Treatment takes around 45 minutes, with the product placed using a cannula for precision and comfort. Mild swelling or small bumps can occur for 24 hours. Most patients notice visible improvement within 24–48 hours, with the face appearing more supported, refreshed, and balanced.

Are you a “Sinker” or a “Sagger”?

Ageing affects everyone differently, and Profhilo Structura has been developed to address two of the most common facial ageing patterns.

Sinkers

People who fall into the “sinker” category tend to notice:

  • Hollowness through the cheeks
  • Increased visibility of the cheekbone and temple area
  • Thinner tissue density
  • A more sunken or drawn appearance

This is usually due to shrinkage of the superficial fat pads beneath the cheeks.

Saggers

“Saggers” typically notice:

  • Heavier lower-face
  • Soft tissue descent and early jowls
  • Thicker, denser skin
  • Volume collecting in the lower regions of the face

This happens as collagen levels fall, fat pads shift downwards, and elasticity reduces.

Profhilo Structura is suitable for both patterns, helping restore balance, rebuild support, and create a fresher, more lifted look — without altering natural facial features.

Whats The Difference Between Profhilo & Profhilo Structura?

Profhilo

In short: Profhilo is best for overall skin quality. Structura is for deeper remodelling, addressing sagging, hollowing, and mid-face volume loss.
