Profhilo, Skin Boosters & Polynucleotides FAQ
What Are Skin Boosters?
Skin boosters are injectable treatments designed to improve the quality of your skin rather than change the shape of your face. Unlike dermal fillers, which restore volume and contour, skin boosters focus on hydration, elasticity and overall skin health.
These treatments help the skin appear smoother, firmer and more radiant by improving hydration and supporting natural collagen and elastin production.
At Evlin's Aesthetics, skin boosters are ideal for patients who want healthier, fresher-looking skin while maintaining a completely natural appearance.
What Is Profhilo?
Profhilo® is an injectable skin remodelling treatment containing one of the highest concentrations of hyaluronic acid available for aesthetic use. Rather than adding volume like a dermal filler, it spreads beneath the skin to improve hydration and stimulate collagen and elastin production.
Profhilo is commonly used to improve:
- Skin hydration
- Fine lines
- Skin laxity
- Crepey skin
- Overall skin texture
- Skin firmness
- Natural radiance
The goal is healthier, more youthful-looking skin—not a change in facial shape.
How Does Profhilo Work?
After injection, Profhilo spreads through the tissues beneath the skin, helping to attract moisture while stimulating the body's natural production of collagen and elastin.
Over the following weeks, many patients notice:
- Improved skin hydration
- Increased firmness
- Better elasticity
- Smoother texture
- A healthy, natural glow
Results develop gradually as your skin responds to the treatment.
What Areas Can Profhilo Treat?
Profhilo is commonly used on:
- Face
- Neck
- Décolletage
- Hands
In selected patients, it may also be suitable for other areas where skin quality has declined.
Treatment recommendations are always based on an individual assessment.
Who Is Profhilo Suitable For?
Profhilo may be suitable if you are concerned about:
- Dull or dehydrated skin
- Fine lines
- Loss of skin elasticity
- Early signs of ageing
- Crepey skin
- Skin laxity
- Overall skin quality
It is suitable for both women and men who want subtle, natural skin rejuvenation.
How Many Profhilo Treatments Will I Need?
A typical treatment course consists of two sessions approximately four weeks apart.
Depending on your skin condition and goals, maintenance treatments may be recommended several months later to help maintain results.
Your personalised treatment plan will be discussed during your consultation.
When Will I See Results?
Profhilo works gradually.
Many patients notice improvements in hydration within the first few weeks, while collagen and elastin stimulation continues over the following months.
The skin often appears progressively smoother, firmer and more radiant after completing the recommended treatment course.
How Long Do Profhilo Results Last?
Results typically last around six months, although this varies depending on your skin condition, age, lifestyle and individual response.
Maintenance treatments can help preserve improvements over time.
What Is the Difference Between Profhilo and Dermal Fillers?
Although both contain hyaluronic acid, they have different purposes.
Profhilo focuses on improving skin quality, hydration and elasticity.
Dermal fillers restore volume, enhance facial contours and improve facial structure.
Profhilo does not add volume or reshape facial features.
Many patients benefit from combining both treatments for comprehensive facial rejuvenation.
What Is the Difference Between Profhilo and Skin Boosters?
Profhilo is often grouped with skin boosters because it improves skin quality, but it has unique characteristics.
Traditional skin boosters are generally injected into multiple areas of the skin to provide local hydration.
Profhilo has a specialised formulation that spreads more widely beneath the skin, stimulating collagen and elastin while improving hydration.
Your practitioner will recommend the most appropriate option based on your skin concerns.
What Are Polynucleotides?
Polynucleotides are regenerative injectable treatments that support the skin's natural repair processes.
Rather than adding volume, they help improve skin quality by encouraging tissue repair, supporting collagen production and enhancing hydration.
They are commonly used to improve:
- Skin texture
- Fine lines
- Skin elasticity
- Under-eye quality
- Acne scarring
- Sun-damaged skin
- Overall skin health
At Evlin's Aesthetics, polynucleotides are often recommended for patients seeking natural skin regeneration and long-term improvements in skin quality.
How Do Polynucleotides Work?
Polynucleotides support the skin's natural healing and regeneration by creating an environment that encourages tissue repair.
Over time, treatment may help:
- Improve skin firmness
- Increase hydration
- Enhance elasticity
- Support collagen production
- Improve skin texture
Results develop gradually as your skin undergoes its natural repair processes.
What Is Rejuran?
Rejuran® is a polynucleotide-based treatment that uses highly purified DNA fragments to support skin repair and regeneration.
It is widely recognised for improving skin quality rather than adding volume.
Patients commonly choose Rejuran to address:
- Fine lines
- Dull skin
- Acne scars
- Enlarged pores
- Uneven texture
- Delicate skin around the eyes
At Evlin's Aesthetics, Rejuran is used as part of a personalised treatment plan designed to restore healthier, stronger and more resilient skin.
What Is the Difference Between Rejuran and Profhilo?
Although both treatments improve skin quality, they work differently.
Profhilo focuses primarily on deep hydration and stimulating collagen and elastin production.
Rejuran focuses on supporting the skin's repair and regeneration processes, making it particularly suitable for improving texture, acne scarring and fragile or damaged skin.
During your consultation, we will discuss which treatment—or combination of treatments—is most suitable for your skin concerns.
Can Skin Boosters Be Combined With Other Treatments?
Yes.
Many patients achieve excellent results by combining skin boosters with treatments such as:
- Anti-wrinkle injections
- Dermal fillers
- PRP
- Microneedling
- Medical-grade skincare
- Chemical peels
A personalised treatment plan allows us to address hydration, texture, facial structure and overall skin health together.
Are Skin Boosters Safe?
When performed by an appropriately trained practitioner using high-quality products, skin boosters have an established safety profile.
As with all injectable treatments, a consultation is essential to discuss your medical history, suitability, potential benefits and possible risks before proceeding.
Your safety is always our highest priority.

Fact: Skin boosters improve hydration from within the skin, but a good daily skincare routine remains important for maintaining healthy skin.
Myth: Polynucleotides and fillers are the same.
