As we age, many layers of the face change—including the bones, muscles, ligaments, fat, and skin. These changes happen at different speeds for each person. A key part of the visible aging process is the shifting and loss of facial fat just beneath the skin, which contributes to sagging and hollow areas.
Over time, gravity causes the fat in the face to shift downward and inward. This movement pulls the skin with it, creating hollows in the cheeks and reducing the natural curves and angles of the face. As a result, the cheeks lose volume, especially in the middle and outer areas.
Profhilo Structura — the latest innovation from IBSA Italy, the creators of the renowned Profhilo — introduces a groundbreaking lipolifting treatment concept. Designed to combat the visible signs of aging caused by changes in facial fat layers, Profhilo Structura targets deep tissue support and rejuvenation.
With a high concentration of hyaluronic acid, this advanced formulation works to restore facial structure and deliver intense skin firmness. It is specifically indicated for the restoration and redefinition of facial adipose tissue, making it a powerful ally in the fight against age-related volume loss and skin laxity. A study showed that 95% of patients already felt an improvement after the first treatment, with tissue thickness measurements showed an increase of 23%!

What is Profhilo Structura?
Profhilo Structura is an advanced injectable treatment specifically designed to target superficial facial fat compartments, addressing structural and contour changes associated with aging. Utilizing a unique hybrid formulation of high and low molecular weight hyaluronic acid, Profhilo Structura helps to restore lost volume, improve facial contours, and give your face a smoother, more lifted look—especially in the cheeks and mid-face. It is a great option if you want natural-looking results without the heaviness of traditional fillers.
Key Features of Profhilo Structura:
- Targets Superficial Fat Compartments
Unlike traditional fillers or skin boosters, Profhilo Structura is specifically designed to act on the subcutaneous fat layer, addressing age-related volume loss and structural decline. - Advanced Hyaluronic Acid Formulation
Utilizing NAHYCO® Hybrid Technology, it combines high and low molecular weight hyaluronic acid (45mg each, with a total of 90mg HA) for enhanced tissue integration, natural results, and prolonged efficacy. - Reactivates Dormant Fat Cells
The treatment stimulates dormant adipocytes, encouraging them to release regenerative signals that promote tissue remodeling and support overall skin health. - Lifts and Contours the Midface
By restoring volume and improving structural support, Profhilo Structura helps to lift the cheeks, redefine facial contours, and improve the appearance of the jawline and midface. - Minimal Downtime
With only mild and temporary side effects such as redness or swelling at injection sites, downtime is generally minimal, allowing for a quick return to daily activities.
Two-Stage Protocol
The full treatment typically consists of two sessions, spaced one month apart, to achieve optimal and lasting results.
