Profhilo® Structura: A Guide to Subtle Lift and Natural-Looking Results

What is Profhilo® Structura and how does it work?

Profhilo® Structura is the latest innovation from the makers of the original Profhilo® treatment – but it’s designed to go deeper. While the original focuses on hydration and skin quality, Structura is an advanced injectable treatment that supports sagging areas and restores shape – particularly for those with more delicate facial structures.
Unlike traditional fillers, Profhilo® Structura doesn’t add volume. Instead, it stimulates collagen, elastin and helps restore superficial adipose (fat) tissue – addressing age-related volume loss and improving facial support as part of the skin’s extracellular matrix. It uses a hybrid of high and low molecular weight hyaluronic acid, delivered through patented NAHYCO® technology.

This not only strengthens the skin’s internal scaffolding but also helps softly rebuild contour in areas where fat has diminished over time, without adding puffiness or bulk to the face.

So, who is Profhilo® Structura most suited to? Clare often recommends it for those who:
• Have lost volume in areas like the cheeks due to fat redistribution or age-related hollowing
• Are seeing early signs of sagging around the cheeks, jawline or temples
• Have a more delicate facial structure and want a subtle lift
• Prefer to avoid traditional volumising fillers
• Want to improve definition and skin hydration at the same time

Clare explains:
“Profhilo® Structura gives us a way to support and shape the face gently – especially when we want to lift without adding volume. Treatment is quick, comfortable and low on downtime, with results that build gradually in the weeks that follow.” Understanding ‘Sinkers and Saggers’ In aesthetics, no two faces age in exactly the same way – and one of the most important things to understand is how your face is changing before deciding what treatment approach is right.

Clare describes ‘sinkers’ as individuals with a more sunken appearance who gradually lose volume in areas like the mid-face and temples – not just from collagen and elastin loss, but also from a reduction in superficial fat. These subtle changes can cause the face to look more tired or drawn, even if skin quality remains good. In contrast, ‘saggers’ may notice more obvious laxity around the jawline, cheeks or under the chin, where gravity and collagen loss have more visible effects.

Profhilo® Structura is especially effective for patients with naturally delicate or lower-volume facial features. As Clare explains, “When someone has a more refined facial structure, the last thing we want to do is make them look puffy. Structura helps us gently restore shape and support in a way that looks completely natural – it’s not about changing your face, it’s about giving it back what time
has taken away.” For patients with heavier skin or more advanced sagging, Clare may recommend combining Profhilo® Structura with other treatment options, such as dermal fillers, to deliver more lift and definition where needed.

What to Expect and When to Start

As with all aesthetic treatments, timing is key. Whilst profhilo® Structura delivers noticeable improvement in skin firmness and facial support, the results are designed to appear gradually. This allows for a beautifully natural-looking enhancement – not an overnight transformation.

Most patients begin to see improvement a few weeks after their first session, with continued benefits over the following months as collagen and elastin levels increase. The recommended protocol is two treatments around four weeks apart, with optional maintenance sessions every four to six months to help sustain your results over time.
