Profhilo® Structura
Why Profhilo®
Structura?
The main benefit of Profhilo® Structura is its ability to restore lost facial volume by regenerating fat tissue, leading to a more youthful, lifted, and naturally contoured appearance.
Profhilo® Structura is the first product designed specifically to target superficial fat cells. Its unique formulation stimulates inactive fat cells, encouraging them to “reactivate” and produce essential skin signals.
This process restores the youthful function of these fat cells, leading to visibly lifted skin, improved jawline definition, and reduced heaviness in the nasolabial folds.

So what is Profhilo® Structura?
Structura is specifically designed to lift without adding width. By enhancing adipose (fat) tissue through a process known as “lipolifting,” it helps restore facial structure, providing lift and support to the mid-face. This results in fewer wrinkles and an overall improvement in skin appearance.
It is the only product available that actively reverses the aging of facial fat cells. The breakdown of superficial fat cells is a key factor in the contour changes that occur with aging. By restoring these fat cells, Structura naturally lifts the face, creating a more youthful and rejuvenated look.
How does Profhilo® Structura work?
Profhilo® Structura utilizes Nahyco® Technology, a patented thermal process that blends high and low molecular-weight Ultrapure Hyaluronic Acid to form Stabilized Hybrid Cooperative Complexes (HCC). These advanced complexes are designed to:
- Restore Lost Volume – Replenishes adipose tissue, restoring natural facial fullness, smoothing hollows, and enhancing contours.
- Firm and Lift – Penetrates deep within the skin to provide a lipolifting effect, tightening and firming sagging areas.
- Combat Signs of Aging – Stimulates adipose tissue regeneration, rejuvenating aging skin and maintaining a youthful, refreshed look.
Who is Profhilo® Structura suitable for?
The ideal patients are characterised as either Sinkers or Saggers.
If you’ve noticed your skin beginning to sink or sag with age, this treatment could be an ideal option. It has a more natural look than fillers while delivering both immediate improvements and long-term regenerative benefits.
By targeting age-related changes in facial fat, this product helps restore lost volume. Additionally, due to its unique spreading properties, it also benefits the overlying skin, much like Profhilo®, enhancing overall skin quality and firmness.
What is the difference between Profhilo® and Profhilo® Structura?
While both Profhilo® and Profhilo® Structura are injectable treatments using NAHYCO® technology to deliver hyaluronic acid, they differ in their mechanism, target areas, and effects. The key differences are:
- Treatment Concerns: Profhilo® focuses on hydration, elasticity and overall skin quality, while Profhilo® Structura is indicated to improve structural support, lifting, and contouring.
- Results: Profhilo® provides a subtle, natural improvement in skin quality, whereas Profhilo® Structura offers more pronounced lifting and structural enhancement.
- Patient Suitability: Although both can be used on similar areas, the specific needs of the patient (e.g. hydration as opposed to lifting) will determine which product is more appropriate.
How long does a treatment take?
Although the appointment lasts 30 minutes, the actual treatment takes just 10 minutes, as it involves precise injection points. The procedure is virtually painless and requires no downtime, allowing you to resume daily activities immediately.
How long does Profhilo® Structura last?
For best results, you are required to have 2 treatments one month apart to begin with, then 1 treatment every 6 months after that, or when you begin to see the treatment’s effects wearing away.
