Skin Boosters

 

Profhilo is a revolutionary technology that delivers an anti-ageing treatment into the skin of your face, neck, and other areas of the body. It is used at Stone Aesthetics for restoring a more youthful look to the face and neck making your skin feel more plump and appear glowing. 


Profhilo stabilised hybrid cooperative complexes is the first product developed with Mahyco hybrid technology. It is an injectable procedure that helps to add volume to the underlying tissues of the skin, however it is not considered to be a ‘filler’. As an effective solution for turning back the clock on ageing, Profhilo can reduce the appearance of common ageing-related concerns, including: lines and wrinkles, facial volume loss, loose skin and a dull / dry complexion.


The BAP technique is used to administer this treatment – whereby the 5 main anatomically receptive areas of the face are identified. Once injected beneath the skin, Profhilo absorbs into the tissues and works with them to help rebuild a strong structure. This restoration of the natural fabric of the dermis sees an increase in levels of collagen and elastin, for a remodelled complexion that is fuller and has more bounce.

Depending on your level of concern 1 or 2 treatments may be needed four weeks apart, with a single maintenance treatment carried out after 6-12 months.

The outcome will usually have developed within 8 weeks, often showing a smoother, tighter and more lifted appearance.

Although profhilo is a popular treatment for the face, it can also be used to create a youthful look on the neck, décolletage and hands.


Profhilo intervenes in the dermal tissue repair process, in cases of acne or scars. The physiological process of ageing tissue, in presence of alterations in elastic fibres and collagen. As well as, in cases of loss or compromised adipose tissue. Tissue remodelling is easily obtained in only two sessions (4-week interval), using the BAP aesthetic injection techniques, in the superficial subcutaneous layer. 



In studies 70% of subjects show an improvement of at least one grade according to the FVLS (Facial Volume Loss Scale Range 2-3). Significant improvement in skin hydration after only one treatment and in skin elasticity after two treatments. Significant improvement of satisfaction levels after the second treatment.

Profhilo represents an intriguing new paradigm for skin restoration and improvement of skin laxity. It is the:
 – first injectable hyaluronic acid for skin remodelling and treating skin laxity
 – first stabilised product without the use of BDDE (thermal process)

Profhilo has been hailed as “a true breakthrough in anti-ageing medicine”, “a major advance for difficult to treat areas” or “a real game-changer” to name a few…

Polynucleotides

 


POLYFILby Croma  What are Polynucleotides?

  • Source:Polynucleotides are derived from fragments of fish DNA (salmon or trout). 
  • Function:They act as a biostimulator, encouraging the body's natural regenerative processes. 
  • Mechanism:When injected, polynucleotides stimulate fibroblast cells, which are responsible for producing collagen and elastin, leading to improved skin firmness, elasticity, and overall quality. 
  • Benefits:
    • Improved skin quality: They enhance skin hydration, reduce wrinkles, and improve skin tone. 
    • Collagen and elastin production: They stimulate the body's natural production of these essential proteins, leading to firmer and more elastic skin. 
    • Cellular repair: They promote cellular repair and regeneration, helping to address skin damage and improve overall skin health. 
    • Anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties: They possess anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, helping to protect the skin from damage. 
  • Applications:Polynucleotides can be used to address a range of concerns, including:
    • Fine lines and wrinkles 
    • Loss of elasticity and firmness 
    • Dehydration and dullness 
    • Scar tissue and stretch marks 
    • Hair loss and shedding 

How Polynucleotide Treatments Work:

  • Injection:Polynucleotides are injected into the skin, typically in areas like the face, neck, and hands. 
  • Stimulation:The polynucleotides stimulate the body's natural regenerative processes, leading to increased collagen and elastin production. 
  • Gradual Improvement:The results are gradual and improve over time, as the body's natural regeneration processes take effect. 
  • Maintenance:Maintenance treatments may be recommended to sustain the results. 

Polynucleotides vs. Fillers:

  • Mechanism:Polynucleotides stimulate the body's natural regenerative processes, while fillers provide immediate volume and hydration.
  • Results:Polynucleotides offer gradual, natural-looking results, while fillers provide more immediate and noticeable results.
  • Durability:Polynucleotide results are long-lasting, as they stimulate the body's own collagen and elastin production, while filler results are temporary. 

Important Considerations:

  • Consult with a qualified professional: It's important to consult with a qualified and experienced aesthetic practitioner to determine if polynucleotide treatments are right for you.
  • Follow-up care: Adhere to any post-treatment instructions provided by your practitioner.
  • Be aware of potential side effects: As with any medical procedure, there are potential side effects, such as redness, swelling, or bruising. 


PAIN: Mild- moderate

SOCIAL DOWNTIME: 24-72 hours, potential for bruising

RESULTS: The timeline for visible results from Polynucleotide treatments can vary, depending on individual skin types and the specific concerns being addressed. Generally, patients begin to notice improvements within a few weeks after the initial treatment. The full effects, however, typically become more apparent over the course of several months. This gradual progression is due to the nature of polynucleotides, which work by stimulating the body’s natural processes of collagen and elastin production, as well as enhancing cellular regeneration.


As these processes take time, the skin’s appearance improves incrementally. Most patients observe a noticeable difference in skin hydration, texture, and elasticity within the first month, with continued improvements in firmness and a reduction in fine lines and wrinkles over the following months. It’s important to note that multiple treatment sessions may be necessary to achieve optimal results, and these should be spaced out. The longevity and effectiveness of the treatment are also influenced by factors such as lifestyle, skin care routine, and overall health, making it essential to follow post-treatment care instructions and maintain a healthy lifestyle for lasting results.


RECOMMENDED COURSE: 2-3 treatments 2 weeks apart

TREATS: Lacklustre skin, dark circles, fine lines, wrinkles
 

Polynucleotide Aftercare

Polynucleotide Treatment Aftercare


Ensuring the best results from your Polynucleotide treatment involves a dedicated aftercare routine. At Stone Aesthetics, we provide detailed guidance to help you through your recovery and maximise the benefits of the treatment:


  1. Soothe and Protect Your Skin Immediately After Treatment: It’s common to experience mild swelling or a bit of redness in the treated areas. Gently apply a cold compress to alleviate these symptoms, but be careful not to exert too much pressure on the skin. Avoid touching or massaging the treated areas to prevent any disturbance to the newly injected polynucleotides.
  2. Carefully Plan Your Activities and Skincare: In the first 24 to 48 hours following your treatment, it’s advisable to avoid strenuous exercise and exposure to high temperatures, like saunas or hot baths. Protect your skin from direct sunlight. Using a broad-spectrum sunscreen is essential to safeguard the treated areas from UV damage.
  3. Maintain Hydration and Follow a Nutritious Diet: Keeping your body well-hydrated is crucial. Drink plenty of water to support the skin’s hydration levels. Incorporate a diet rich in vitamins and antioxidants to aid in the skin’s healing and rejuvenation process.
  4. Follow Up for Continued Care: Stone Aesthetics schedules a follow-up appointment to monitor your progress and ensure optimal healing. This session is an opportunity to address any questions and to make sure your recovery is on track.
  5. Long-Term Skin Care and Maintenance: After the initial recovery period, continue to care for your skin with a gentle and nourishing skincare routine. Regular moisturising and protection against environmental factors will help maintain the results of your treatment.
