Skincare

Skin boosters can be used to treat many different skin areas. They provide optimal results due to their ability to work from the inside out, awakening cells within the ‘power centre’ of your skin to replenish, revive and rejuvenate. The most common treatment areas are the face, followed by the neck, décolletage and dorsum of the hands. However, they can also be used on difficult to treat areas, like tightening the skin under the chin, the upper inner arms, inner thighs, knees and abdomen. They are safe for all skin types, ages and genders. Profhilo is an ultra-pure, high-dose hyaluronic acid bioremodeller that is injected into the skin, acting as a hyaluronic acid moisturising treatment. Profhilo’s hydrating effect works as it stimulates collagen and elastin, attracting water into the dermis. Made with a patented technology called NAHYCOO, the result is a gel with prolonged stimulating activity on the dermal cells. The product also works to stimulate cell receptors to counteract skin laxity and restore firmness to the skin. Most Profhilo skin treatments are delivered in a course of two sessions spaced three to six weeks apart to allow for maximum skin hydration and synergistic collagen stimulation. Further treatment may be advised for skin with more advanced sagging, photodamage and ageing. The results focus on tightening as well as hydration. Jalupro is an injectable solution that has been formulated using a clever combination of amino acids. Technically labelled as a ‘dermal biorevitalizer’, it eradicates skin depressions caused by ageing wrinkles and scars. The science behind Jalupro works by feeding the connective tissue under the skin layers, otherwise known as fibroblasts. Fibroblasts produce collagen and repair skin to ensure it always has elasticity and great looking texture. As skin ages, the fibroblasts function reduces in activity; this can be caused by many factors, including spending too much time in the sun, intense smoking and other reasons. Consequently, wrinkles appear. The amino acids in Jalupro join forces with the existing fibroblasts to help them continue their pre-ageing function. The more abundant the amino acids, the more healthier the skin cells are, resulting in younger appearance. This natural phenomenon is an effective way for skin to look younger again without surgery. The difference between Jalupro and Profhilo is that Jalupro can be mixed with Botox, to very subtly soften fine lines. It is also more targeted for specific areas of the face.
