No Benefit at All After 3 Weeks - Before and After Photos Are Identical

SandyCurls
Had two Profhilo treatments on my face, separated by 1 month. For 3 weeks after each treatment, my skin was more hydrated than normal, plumper, fine lines were diminished and there was even some mild lifting. I was very happy with the results. But then the benefits began to rapidly diminish. After 4 weeks, my face is exactly back to where it was before the treatment, which is quite disappointing since my doctor told me to expect to see the improvements for 6 months. He took before and after photos, and you cannot tell the difference at all. Total waste of money. My doctor isn't sure why the effects didn't last. He thinks it may have to do with the fact that I exercise every day and that "that could have flushed the hyaluronic acid from your system." But that doesn't make sense to me since the results are supposed to last 6 months, and there's nothing in the product materials that state that exercise could diminish the benefits. Really wish I would have spent my money on fillers instead.

That's frustrating. Can I ask the cost? And how much time did each treatment take?

It cost 5100 Malaysian Ringgit, or 1040 Euros. That's a lot of money to spend on a treatment that yielded no longterm results. :-( It's two treatments, separated by 1 month. Each treatment took a total of about 45 minutes: 30 minutes for skin numbing cream, and about 15 minutes for the series of 10 shots injected into various places on your face. I'm not a fan of needles, but I barely felt any of the injections, except for the two around the nasolabial fold, which stung a bit (but it was very tolerable).

How many times did you do it?

As I mentioned in the review, I did the recommended two treatments, separated by a month.

Ah so maybe you metabolized it faster. That happened to me with regular filler. It’s totally a thing. Sucks, now I’m just doing emsculpt and yoga, no cardio and my profhilo hasn’t disappeared.

That's interesting. I had Jeuvederm and that lasted about a year and a half without a problem, and my exercise habits were the same then and now. Guess I'll just have to stick to fillers. Too bad Profhilo didn't last on me. The initial results were fantastic.

I agree it only lasted weeks on me. It looked amazing for about 3 or 4 weeks, second lot didn't look as good as the first and rapidly lost the results. So expensive. Biggest waste of money.
