Profhilo® Structura is an advanced bio stimulator made from Hyaluronic Acid (HA) used to regenerate ageing surface level fat cells in the skin. However, Profhilo Structura® won’t add volume like traditional HA dermal fillers. Injected just under the skins surface, it works to restore the health of adipose tissue to give a natural but noticeable lifting, tightening and contouring effect.

Profhilo® Structura is an injectable gel made from Hyaluronic Acid – a naturally occurring substance within your skin that declines with age.

As we age, we lose collagen and bone density, and gravity causes the deeper structures of the face to shift, leading to sagging and a loss of definition. The unique properties of Profhilo® Structura lift the face, giving a tightening effect, enhancing facial structure and firmness without adding volume. This is done by targeting adipose tissue to restore facial structure while enhancing collagen, elastin and fat cells in the surface layer of the skin.

When first having Profhilo® Structura, you will have two treatments 4-6 weeks apart. The results can be immediate following the appointment. Results are most visible from 4-12 weeks after the second treatment. 

At Caci we offer free consultations where you will have the opportunity to discuss the treatment in detail and we cover your medical history. After your free consultation, you will be booked in for an appointment to be treated. One of our Caci Nurses will inject Profhilo® Structura in to the skin across two injection sites, maximising results by using the best technique to enhance your facial structure. The injection process is quick and your appointment will typically be 30 minutes. 

The injection process is quick and generally well tolerated with customers only reporting a mild, but brief discomfort. 

Profhilo® Structura is suitable for most people. At Caci, your safety is our priority and we do not use cosmetic injectables while customers are planning to be, or are pregnant, breastfeeding or while infection is present. We are also cautious around other treatments customers are having such as dental work, or if you will be travelling in the near future. 

There is the possibility of some common side effects such as bruising, redness, swelling, hypersensitivity, temporary lumps and bumps. Other rare but possible side effects include hardening at the point of injection site, infection, allergy and vascular compromise.

After treatment your skin may be pink or red at the treatment site. You may also have small lumps at the injection sites. This is normal, and usually disappears within a few hours.

Bruising is possible, you can apply Hirudoid cream (available at most chemists) which may help to shorten the duration of the bruise. 

• Avoid consuming alcohol, strenuous exercise or rubbing/massaging the treated area for at least 24 hours.
  
• Avoid activity where your skin may come into contact with irritants, i.e; pools, hot tubs., saunas. In addition to this, avoid activity that may expose your skin to infectious material while your skin is healing, including pets.
  
• If you want to wear makeup post treatment, we recommend a mineral makeup only. 

Please contact your clinic if you see signs of ‘duskiness’ or grey patches, pustules or unusual skin changes which may/may not be associated with pain. 

Results will vary, but typically they last 6-9 months. We recommend having maintenance treatments every 6-12 months to maintain your desired results. 

A Profhilo® Structura treatment is available as a standalone treatment ($1900 for 2x treatments, $950 for 1x maintenance treatment) or as part of a Caci Membership (consisting of either weekly, fortnightly or monthly payments).
