Profhilo Structura is the newest innovation in the Profhilo family. While the classic version treats the skin, Structura targets the fat tissue (adipose tissue) underneath. It is designed to restore facial volume and lift sagging tissues naturally (Lipolifting) without the artificial look of fillers. Performed in Nişantaşı, Istanbul using advanced cannula techniques.
What Is Profhilo Structura? (Lipolifting)
Aging causes the fat pads in our face to shrink and slide down, leading to a “hollow” and sagging look. Profhilo Structura is the world’s first injectable designed specifically to regenerate this adipose tissue.
The Difference:
- Classic Profhilo: Tightens the Skin.
- Profhilo Structura: Lifts the Deep Tissue.
How Does It Work?
Using patented NAHYCO® technology, it delivers high concentrations of Hyaluronic Acid deep into the fat layers.
- Restores Volume Naturally: It signals fat cells to function better, counteracting the “gaunt” or hollow look of aging.
- Lifting Effect: By strengthening the deep structure, it pulls the face upwards and defines the jawline.
- No Puffiness: Unlike fillers, it does not attract excessive water, so you won’t look swollen.
Who Is the Ideal Candidate?
This treatment is perfect if you feel your face is “sinking” or “sagging”:
- Hollow cheeks or temples.
- Loss of definition in the jawline.
- Patients who want a lift but refuse dermal fillers.
- Those looking for a natural, “undetectable” rejuvenation.
The Procedure in Istanbul
While Classic Profhilo uses 5 needle points, Structura is typically applied using a Cannula (blunt needle).
- Why Cannula? To deliver the product smoothly into the deep fat layers without bruising or pain.
- Time: The procedure takes about 20 minutes.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between Classic Profhilo and Structura?
They target different layers:
- Classic Profhilo: Targets the Skin (Dermis). Best for hydration, glow, and fine lines.
- Profhilo Structura: Targets the Fat Tissue (Hypodermis). Best for restoring volume, lifting sagging cheeks, and redefining the jawline.
- Ideally, they can be used together for a multi-layer rejuvenation.
Is it a Filler?
No. Fillers act like “cement” to fill a hole. Structura acts like a “regenerator” to repair your own tissue. It feels softer and looks more natural than any filler.
Which one do I need?
- Choose Classic: If your main concern is dull, dry, or crepey skin.
- Choose Structura: If your main concern is “hollow” cheeks, jowls, or sinking facial features.
Will it make my face look wide?
No. Structura is designed to lift the tissues vertically, restoring the youthful “V-shape” of the face, not widening it.
Is there downtime?
Minimal. Since we typically use a cannula (single entry point), bruising is very rare compared to needle injections.
What is the cost in Istanbul?
Prices depend on the number of sessions. Treatment in Turkey offers access to this cutting-edge Italian technology at a very competitive price.
