Profhilo Injection Points

Profhilo injection points are the exact spots on your face and neck where this skin-boosting treatment is applied. These Bio Aesthetic Points of Profhilo treatment help the hyaluronic acid spread evenly under your skin, giving it deep hydration, smoothness, and a natural lift without adding volume.

In this blog, we’ll explain everything you need to know about Profhilo injection points,  how the BAP technique works, where each point is located, what to expect during treatment, and the beautiful, natural results you can enjoy.

What Are Profhilo Injection Points?

Profhilo injection points are the specific spots on your skin where the treatment is applied. Using these points helps the product spread evenly and work its magic across your face. The method used is called the Bio Aesthetic Points (BAP) technique, and it focuses on just five spots on each side of the face.

These points are chosen carefully to make sure the hyaluronic acid in Profhilo spreads naturally, improving your skin’s hydration, firmness, and overall texture. The same idea can be used on other areas too, like your neck, chest, hands, arms, and even knees.

The 5 Bio Aesthetic Points for Profhilo on the Face

Profhilo is a skin booster that uses five special injection points on each side of the face. These points are carefully chosen so the product spreads evenly and works best. Here’s a simple guide to each one:

  • Upper Cheek

This is the area on your cheekbone, just under your eyes. Injecting here helps lift the skin and add natural hydration to your cheeks.

  • Nasal Base

This point is in line with your nostrils. It helps smooth the skin around your nose and upper cheeks, giving a softer, more balanced look.

  • Lower Cheek

Found in the area below your cheekbone, near the middle of your face. This point helps improve skin firmness and texture in your lower cheeks.

  • Jawline / Mandibular Angle

This is at the angle of your jaw. Treating this point can help tighten the jawline and give a more defined, youthful shape.

  • Chin

Right in the centre of your chin. It helps smooth and hydrate the lower part of your face, creating an even and natural look.

By injecting Profhilo into these five points, the product spreads naturally through your skin, improving hydration, firmness, and elasticity with just a few tiny injections.

Profhilo Injection Points for the Neck & Other Areas

Profhilo isn’t just for the face. It can also improve skin on the neck, chest, hands, arms, and knees. For the neck, a special 10-point BAP technique is used to give the skin a firmer, smoother look. Here’s a simple guide to the points on each side of the neck:

  • Upper Neck

This point is just below the jawline. Injecting here helps lift the skin and improve firmness in the upper part of the neck.

  • Middle Neck

Located around the centre of the neck. Treatment here smooths the skin and adds hydration to reduce the appearance of fine lines.

  • Lower Neck

Closer to the collarbone, this point targets sagging skin. It helps make the lower neck appear tighter and more even.

  • Sides of the Neck

Along the sides near the muscles, these points improve skin texture. They also help lift and firm the areas that tend to sag.

  • Back of the Neck (if needed)

Points at the back target loose skin for overall firmness. They ensure the skin looks smoother and more youthful from all angles.

Profhilo also works on the décolletage (upper chest), hands, arms, and knees using similar careful placement. These points allow the product to spread naturally, boosting hydration and giving a refreshed, youthful appearance.

How the BAP Technique Works for Profhilo Injections

The BAP (Bio Aesthetic Points) technique is designed to maximise the effectiveness of Profhilo with minimal injections. Here’s how it works, step by step:

  • Assessment & Planning 

Before your treatment, a trained practitioner will assess your skin and discuss your goals with you. They will then mark the five injection points on each side of your face.

  • Injection

A tiny amount of Profhilo is injected into each marked point. Because the product is very smooth, it spreads easily under the skin.

  • Diffusion & Bio-Remodelling

After the injections, the hyaluronic acid moves naturally through your skin. It works in the top, middle, and deep layers to hydrate the skin and boost collagen and elastin. This helps your skin become firmer, smoother, and more elastic over time.

The BAP technique uses only a few points, so it keeps the treatment quick and comfortable, with minimal swelling or bruising. Most people can get back to their day almost immediately.

Benefits of Profhilo Using BAP Points

Profhilo is loved for its natural results and gentle approach. The BAP technique offers several key benefits that help your skin look and feel its best:

  • Deep Skin Hydration

Profhilo is made with pure hyaluronic acid, which attracts and holds water in the skin. This gives your face a fresh, healthy glow from within.

  • Improved Firmness and Elasticity

Once injected, Profhilo encourages collagen and elastin production in your skin, which ultimately tightens and smooths the skin, reducing sagging over time.

  • Natural, Even Results

Because the product spreads easily through the skin, it creates soft, natural results without any lumps or uneven patches.

  • Minimal Injections and Downtime

The BAP technique uses only five points on each side of the face, meaning fewer injections, less discomfort, and very little recovery time.

  • Works on Many Areas

Profhilo isn’t limited to the face. It can also treat the neck, chest, hands, and other areas where the skin needs hydration and firmness.

With regular treatments, Profhilo helps restore a smooth, radiant, and youthful look in a natural way without the use of any harsh procedures; it results in just healthy skin from within.

What to Expect During and After Treatment

Here’s what you may expect from a Profhilo treatment session:

  • CQC-Registered Clinic with Nationally Recognised Leadership
  • Over a Decade of Surgical & Aesthetic Expertise
  • Personalised treatment plans tailored to your needs

  • During the Treatment

Before your session, your skin will be cleaned and the injection points marked. A small amount of Profhilo is injected into each point, which usually takes less than 10 minutes for the whole face. Most people feel only a tiny pinch or slight pressure during the injections.

  • Immediately After

You may notice small, mosquito bite-like bumps at the injection sites. These usually settle within 12–24 hours as the product spreads through your skin. Some minor redness or swelling can happen, but it is temporary.

  • Treatment Schedule

A standard Profhilo course usually involves two sessions, four weeks apart. For long-lasting results, maintenance treatments are recommended every six months.

  • Downtime & Recovery

Most people can return to their daily activities straight away. There’s minimal bruising, swelling, or discomfort, making it a quick and convenient treatment.

  • Results

Over the next few weeks, Profhilo works under the skin to improve hydration, firmness, and texture. You’ll notice smoother, plumper, and more youthful-looking skin.

Conclusion 

Profhilo injection points play a key role in giving your skin that smooth, fresh, and naturally lifted look. By carefully placing the product at precise spots on the face and neck, it spreads evenly to boost hydration, elasticity, and glow from within. It’s a simple treatment with beautiful, long-lasting results that look completely natural.

FAQs

1. How deep is the injection for Profhilo?

Profhilo is injected just under the surface of the skin, in the middle layer of the dermis. This allows it to spread smoothly and hydrate the skin from within.

2. What happens if you inject Profhilo too deeply?

If injected too deeply, Profhilo may not spread properly and could reduce the treatment’s effect. That’s why a trained professional should always do it.

3. Why is there no Profhilo on the forehead?

The forehead has thinner skin and essential blood vessels, making it less safe for Profhilo. Other treatments are more effective in this area.

4. What are the best areas for Profhilo?

Profhilo works best on the face, neck, chest, and hands. These areas show early signs of ageing and benefit most from deep hydration.

5. Can you inject Profhilo wrong?

Yes, if placed incorrectly, it might cause uneven results or small lumps. It’s important to see a skilled practitioner who knows the correct technique.

6. Can I inject Profhilo in my forehead?

No, the forehead isn’t suitable for Profhilo because of its thin skin and sensitive vessels. A professional can suggest safer, more effective options instead.

Blepharoplasty

Blepharoplasty, also known as an eye lift, is a surgical procedure performed on the eyelids to improve their appearance. It can address concerns like:

  • Excess skin on the upper eyelids: This can obstruct vision and create a hooded appearance.

  • Bags under the lower eyelids: These can make you look tired or aged.

  • Drooping lower eyelids: This can also obstruct vision and contribute to a tired appearance.


Types of Blepharoplasty:

  • Upper blepharoplasty: This addresses concerns with the upper eyelids, removing excess skin and sometimes fat or muscle tissue.

  • Lower blepharoplasty: This addresses concerns with the lower eyelids, removing excess fat or skin and sometimes repositioning tissues.

  • Asian blepharoplasty: This addresses specific concerns related to the anatomy of Asian eyelids, creating a more defined crease.
