The New Kid On The Block: Discover the Truth About Profhilo in Singapore
With so many options to choose from, it can be hard to decide which skin-enhancing treatment delivers the best result. Each brand claims to offer a plethora of benefits, throwing around enticing phrases like “dewy and plump skin”, “enhanced collagen production”, and “intense skin hydration” to encourage people to patronize their wares. Then there are treatments like skin boosters and dermal fillers that basically use the same key ingredient – hyaluronic acid – but each with a separate approach when it comes to skin enhancement. Lastly, what if there is an actual option that combines the benefits of these two popular treatments into one, hyper-charged solution? Profhilo is a patented technology of self-distributing injectable. Neither a skin booster nor a filler, it is the only stabilized hyaluronic acid-based injectable that targets skin laxity and skin ageing symptoms through bio-stimulation of four different types of elastin, collagen, and proliferate adipose stem cells. Elastin and collagen are important in maintaining the elasticity of the skin, as both serve as the support structure of the skin. You can think of these two as the scaffolding that supports a building. The more elastin and collagen there are, the firmer the skin is. But as we age, the natural production of elastin and collagen are lessened and as a result, hyaluronic acid (HA) production is reduced, too, which makes the skin look wrinkly, saggy, and tired. If you have ever reached this inevitable point, then it is the perfect opportunity for you to explore the...
