Restore Facial Structure. Naturally.

Profhilo Structura is an innovative injectable treatment designed to address age-related changes beneath the skin, particularly the gradual loss and repositioning of facial fat that can contribute to flattening, hollowing and reduced definition.

Using highly concentrated hyaluronic acid, Profhilo Structura works within the superficial facial fat compartments to support tissue quality and help restore a more youthful balance to the face.

Rather than adding traditional filler-style volume or changing your natural features, the treatment is designed to work with your existing facial structure for subtle, natural-looking rejuvenation.

What is Profhilo Structura?

Profhilo Structura is the latest development from the makers of Profhilo, created specifically to target age-related changes in facial structure.

As we age, it isn’t only the skin that changes. The superficial fat pads that help give the face its natural contours can reduce, reposition and become less supportive. This can contribute to hollowing through the mid-face, flattening of the cheeks and changes to the contours of the lower face.

Profhilo Structura uses a unique formulation of high and low molecular weight hyaluronic acid designed to work within these superficial fat compartments.

Its purpose is not to create obvious volume. Instead, it helps improve the quality and support of the underlying tissues, subtly restoring facial structure while preserving natural movement and expression.

What Can Profhilo Structura Treat?

Profhilo Structura may be suitable if you are beginning to notice changes in the shape and structure of your face rather than simply changes to the surface of your skin.

It can be particularly effective for:

    • Age-related facial volume changes
    • Flattening or loss of support through the cheeks
    • Mid-face hollowing
    • Changes in facial contour and definition
    • Early sagging through the mid and lower face
    • A tired or drawn appearance caused by structural changes
    • Patients looking for subtle rejuvenation without traditional dermal filler

During your consultation, your practitioner will assess the face as a whole and determine whether Profhilo Structura is the most appropriate treatment for the changes you are experiencing.

What Happens During Treatment?

Every Profhilo Structura treatment at Newcastle Skin Clinic begins with a comprehensive consultation and facial assessment.

Your practitioner will look at your facial proportions, tissue quality and areas where structural changes have occurred before creating an individual treatment plan.

Profhilo Structura is injected into carefully selected areas of the face using techniques specifically designed for the treatment. The procedure itself is relatively quick, with minimal disruption to your day.

You may experience temporary redness, tenderness, swelling or bruising around the injection sites. These effects are generally mild and settle following treatment.

Profhilo Structura Results

The aim of Profhilo Structura is subtle restoration rather than obvious augmentation.

As the treatment begins to work within the tissues, the face can appear fresher, more supported and better balanced, while still looking completely like you.

Changes develop gradually following treatment and may include improved cheek support, softer hollowing and a more naturally defined facial contour.

A treatment protocol will be recommended following your consultation based on your facial anatomy, degree of tissue change and desired outcome. Maintenance treatments may then be recommended to help preserve your results.

Profhilo Structura vs Profhilo

Although they share the Profhilo name, Profhilo and Profhilo Structura are designed to address different aspects of facial ageing.

Traditional Profhilo primarily targets skin quality, helping to improve hydration, elasticity and firmness within the skin.

Profhilo Structura works at a deeper structural level, targeting the superficial facial fat compartments that contribute to the shape, support and contours of the face.

For some patients, one treatment may be more appropriate than the other. For others, they may form part of a wider treatment plan addressing several layers of facial ageing.

Why Newcastle Skin Clinic?

Facial ageing is rarely caused by one isolated issue.

At Newcastle Skin Clinic, we assess the face as a whole, considering changes to the skin, collagen, facial structure and volume before recommending treatment.

Our nurse-led team takes a considered, individual approach to injectable treatments, with the emphasis always on maintaining your natural proportions and creating results that feel appropriate for you.

Profhilo Structura may be recommended alone or as part of a personalised treatment plan alongside other injectable or collagen-stimulating treatments available at the clinic.

Luisa’s thoughts

I handpicked this treatment for Newcastle Skin Clinic because it’s the biggest thing since Botox, known as an injectable moisturiser, offering intense hydration with the added bonus of trigging collagen and elastin production too.

It’s perfect for people who have thin, crepey skin that has lost its elasticity, but aren’t keen to try traditional filler.

The treatment is quick and minimally invasive, requiring just five injections of super-hydrating hyaluronic acid on each side of the face which over the course of a few weeks will subtly plump and smooth lines and wrinkles, hydrate the skin and stimulate collagen for an undetectable natural look.

FAQs

No. Although Profhilo Structura contains hyaluronic acid, it is not designed to behave like a traditional dermal filler. Rather than creating targeted projection or sculpting individual features, it works within the superficial facial fat compartments to support age-related structural changes.

Traditional Profhilo is primarily used to improve skin hydration, firmness and overall skin quality. Profhilo Structura has been specifically developed to address age-related changes within the superficial facial fat compartments and therefore focuses more on facial structure and support.

Your recommended protocol will depend on your facial anatomy and the degree of age-related change present. Your practitioner will discuss the appropriate treatment course and any future maintenance during your consultation.

Downtime is generally minimal. You may experience temporary redness, swelling, tenderness or bruising around the treatment areas following your appointment. Your practitioner will provide full aftercare advice.

Profhilo Structura may be particularly suitable for patients noticing flattening, hollowing, reduced facial support or other changes associated with the ageing of the superficial facial fat compartments. A consultation is essential to determine whether Structura, another injectable treatment or a combination approach is most appropriate for you.
