TWEAKMENT
Neck Rejuvenation with Profhilo & Aliaxin
Clinic Visit: Alice visits the Waterhouse Young Clinic to see Dr. Sarah Vasudev and discuss Profhilo
Introduction to Profhilo
Purpose: Profhilo aims to rejuvenate the neck by boosting hydration and elasticity.
Treatment Type: It is an injectable treatment involving needles.
Why Treat the Neck?
Aging Signs: The neck often reveals age due to its thinner skin and fewer oil glands. Constant movement causes necklace lines.
Treatment Benefits: Having treatments done on the neck helps maintain a harmonious appearance with facial treatments.
The Procedure
Injection Process: Profhilo involves five injections on either side of the neck, making it quicker and less painful than other treatments requiring numerous pinpricks.
Additional Treatment: Dr. Vasude also uses Aliaxin, a filler with low BDDE, to treat necklace lines and stimulate collagen production.
Experience and Observations
Pain and Sensitivity: The neck feels more vulnerable than the face. Anesthetic cream is recommended.
Immediate Effects: Post-treatment, the neck may appear red and swollen, but these effects subside quickly.
Results
Timeline: Initial results are seen after two months, with improvements continuing over six months.
Visible Changes: Alice noticed a softening of wrinkles and improved skin texture, though not drastic.
Cost and Considerations
Expense: The treatment costs approximately £1,500 for two rounds.
Value: Ideal for those accustomed to investing in cosmetic procedures.
Practical Tips
Post-Treatment Care: Wearing a scarf post-treatment can help conceal any immediate redness.
Maintenance: Regular follow-up treatments are recommended for sustained results.
