Injectables

Botulinum toxin type A is a non-surgical injectable treatment used to temporarily reduce facial wrinkles and fine lines. It works by blocking nerve signals to specific facial muscles, preventing them from contracting. As the muscles relax, the overlying skin smooths out, creating a softer, more youthful appearance.

Common treatment areas include the forehead lines, frown (glabellar) lines, and crow’s feet around the eyes. Results typically appear within 3–7 days, last about 3–4 months, and gradually wear off as muscle activity returns.

The procedure is quick, minimally invasive, and requires no down time, making it a popular option for wrinkle prevention and facial rejuvenation. Most treatment appointments are for 30 minutes.

Injectables (Botulinum Toxin type A) – FAQs

What is botulinum toxin type A?

Botulinum toxin type A is a naturally occurring protein produced by the bacterium Clostridium botulinum. In small, controlled doses, it’s used medically and cosmetically to relax specific muscles and smooth wrinkles.

How do Injectables work?

Injectables (Botulinum Toxin type A) works by blocking the release of acetylcholine, a chemical messenger that signals muscles to contract. When these muscles relax, the overlying skin becomes smoother and lines soften or disappear.

How will Injectables improve the way I look?

By relaxing wrinkle-causing facial muscles, Injectables help create a fresher, more rested and youthful appearance without changing facial structure or expression. It softens existing lines and helps prevent new ones from forming.

What is the overall effect of Injectables?

The overall effect is a natural, smoother appearance with reduced forehead creases, frown lines, and crow’s feet. The face retains movement, but harsh or tired-looking lines are diminished.

What is the best age to have Injectables?

There’s no specific 'best' age — it depends on individual needs. Many people begin having Injectables in their late 20s to 30s as a preventive measure, while others start later to soften established lines.

Which areas of the face do Injectables treat?

Most commonly treated areas include:

  • Forehead lines (horizontal lines)
  • Glabellar frown lines (between the brows)
  • Crow’s feet

It can also be used around the mouth, chin, and neck.

What else can be treated with Injectables?

Beyond cosmetic use, Injectables (Botulinum Toxin type A) is also used to treat:

  • Excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis)
  • Jaw clenching and teeth grinding
  • Migraine prevention
  • Neck muscle spasms
  • Facial asymmetry
What is botulinum toxin?

Botulinum toxin is a neurotoxin protein that, in minute and purified quantities, safely and temporarily blocks nerve impulses to targeted muscles.

What’s involved in Injectables (Botulinum Toxin type A) treatment?

Treatment involves a series of tiny injections delivered with a fine needle into specific facial muscles. The procedure usually takes 10–15 minutes, with minimal discomfort and no down time. Normal activities can be resumed immediately.

How long does the injectable effect last?

Results begin to appear within 3–7 days, peak at around 2 weeks, and last approximately 3–4 months. Duration may vary depending on the area treated, muscle activity, and metabolism.

How often is treatment repeated?

Most patients repeat treatment every 3–4 months to maintain results. Over time, as muscles adapt, intervals may lengthen.

Volume & Shape

Lip Fillers

Lip fillers are hyaluronic acid-based Injectables designed to enhance the volume, shape, and definition of the lips. We use a smooth, gel-like form of hyaluronic acid that integrates naturally into the tissue, giving the lips a soft, hydrated, and natural-looking result.

Treatment takes around 15–20 minutes, with immediate improvement. Mild swelling or bruising may occur for 24–48 hours. Results typically last 9–12 months.

The procedure is comfortable, and because it’s hyaluronic acid-based, it can be reversed if adjustments are needed.

Injectable - Concentrated Hyaluronic Acid

We use an injectable form of high concentration hyaluronic acid. Unlike Dermal Fillers, it doesn’t add volume or change facial shape. Instead, it spreads evenly through the skin to deeply hydrate, improve elasticity, and stimulate collagen and elastin production.

It is primarily used on the face, neck, and hands to treat skin that looks dull, crepey, or lax. The treatment involves a series of small injections, usually 10 points on the face, with minimal down time.

A standard course is two sessions, 4 weeks apart. Results develop gradually over 4–8 weeks, giving the skin a firmer, plumper, and more luminous appearance. Effects typically last 6–9 months.

Profhilo Treatment

Injectable With Concentreted Hyaluronic Acid – FAQs

How long does the injectable with concentreted hyaluronic acid take to work?

This is a two-session treatment, with each session spaced 30 days apart. Results are not immediate because the product works by stimulating your own collagen and elastin production. Over the 30 days following each session, the skin becomes firmer, smoother, and more hydrated. Most people notice improvement after the first session, but full results are seen 4–8 weeks after the second treatment.

What will I look like after the injectable with concentreted hyaluronic acid treatment?

There is no down time. Immediately after treatment, small raised bumps — imilar to insect bites — can appear at each injection point. These are normal and usually settle within 4–24 hours.

Is the injectable with concentreted hyaluronic acid safe?

Yes. This injectable has been used worldwide since 2015. More than 150,000 treatments have been performed with no significant adverse reactions reported. It is highly biocompatible because it is made from pure, natural hyaluronic acid and stabilised without chemical cross-linking agents.
