How Skin Boosters (Profhilo & Skinvive) Works

1

Skin Assessment

Your provider assesses skin hydration levels, elasticity, and overall quality. The appropriate skin booster product (Profhilo, Skinvive, polynucleotides) is selected based on your specific concerns.

2

Injection Mapping

Profhilo is injected at 5 specific anatomical points per side of the face (BDDE protocol) to ensure even distribution. Skinvive uses a micro-droplet technique across the cheeks.

3

Injection

Ultra-pure HA or polynucleotides are injected into the mid-dermis. The product naturally spreads through tissue to cover a broad treatment area from a minimal number of injection points.

4

Bio-Remodeling Phase

Over 4-8 weeks, the product triggers HA receptors to produce more endogenous hyaluronic acid, and stimulates fibroblasts to produce new collagen and elastin — improving skin architecture from within.

TreatmentKey Difference
Skin Boosters (Profhilo & Skinvive)Current$600–$1,800 per session · 30–45 minutes · 1–2 days injection-site marks
Dermal FillersHA fillers add localized volume and structural correction. Skin boosters improve overall skin quality across a broad area. Many patients use both for comprehensive rejuvenation.
Biostimulators (Sculptra/Radiesse)Biostimulators trigger collagen production for volume restoration over months. Skin boosters improve hydration and skin quality more immediately. Both complement each other.
HydraFacialHydraFacial improves skin quality topically with no downtime. Skin boosters work from within the dermis for deeper, longer-lasting hydration and bio-remodeling.

Frequently Asked Questions about Skin Boosters (Profhilo & Skinvive)

What are skin boosters?

Skin boosters are injectable hyaluronic acid or polynucleotide products that spread throughout the dermis to deeply hydrate and bio-remodel skin. Unlike traditional fillers that add localized volume, skin boosters improve overall skin quality — hydration, elasticity, and glow — across a large area.

How is Profhilo different from dermal fillers?

Profhilo uses ultra-pure, unmodified HA that spreads broadly under the skin (no BDDE cross-linking). It doesn't create volume or sculpt — instead it bio-remodels the entire skin architecture, stimulating both HA receptors and collagen/elastin production. Fillers add localized, structural volume.

Is Skinvive FDA-approved?

Yes — Skinvive by Juvederm is FDA-approved for improving cheek skin smoothness. It delivers micro-droplets of HA into the cheeks for a glass-skin hydration effect. Results last approximately 6 months.

How many sessions do I need?

The standard Profhilo protocol is 2 sessions spaced 4 weeks apart, followed by maintenance every 6 months. Skinvive is typically 1 session with 6-month maintenance.

When will I see results?

Initial hydration is visible within 7-10 days of the first session. The bio-remodeling effect — collagen and elastin stimulation — builds over 4-8 weeks after the second session.
