Skin Boosters at NG Skin Clinic Market Harborough
Types of Treatments
Profhilo®
The first of its kind, Profhilo® is a revolutionary 'beneath the skin' hyaluronic acid moisturising treatment, made with the patented NAHYCO® technology. This results in a unique hyaluronic acid injectable gel, which has a prolonged stimulating activity on the dermal cells. When injected into skin, Profhilo® stimulates the skin cell receptors to counteract skin laxity and improve and restore firmness of the skin.
One of the highest concentrations of hyaluronic acid on the market, Profhilo® not only boosts and hydrates the skin, but also remodels ageing and sagging tissue. The most common areas of treatment include the face and neck and can also be used for the décolletage, hands, arms, knees and abdomen area where it would effectively treat skin laxity. The treatment is suitable for men and women as well as offering skin benefits for patients of all ages.
Plenhyage XL
Plenhyage XL is an injectable skin treatment which is designed to help tissue repair. It improves skin quality, thickness, hydration, and promotes new collagen formation.
This polymerised, polynucleotide-based injectable gel works by stimulating fibroblasts, encouraging cell turnover, improving elasticity, boosting collagen production and hydrating the skin.
It is a highly versatile product which has a host of potential applications, including treatment for acne scarring, hyperpigmentation, and rosacea as well as the signs of ageing.
In addition to treatments for the upper, mid and lower face, Plenhyage XL can also be used to treat the neck, décolletage, inner arms, thighs, and knees. It will also be particularly useful for difficult areas such as the neck and beneath the eyes.
