The short answer
Profhilo results, in short
Profhilo improves the condition of the skin rather than its shape, so a good before and after shows smoother texture, more moisture and a little more firmness, never a different face. The first sign usually appears about two weeks after the first session; the fuller result builds for roughly eight weeks after the second and tends to last around six months.
The practitioners Profhilo London connects you with publish £240 to £400 a session and £450 to £550 for the course of two, checked on 13 October 2026, and an appointment usually takes around 30 minutes. There are no result photographs on this site, because nobody has consented to appear on it. The timeline below is drawn from what the practitioners at UNTIL clubs publish and from the published studies; Profhilo treatment in London explains the course itself.

Profhilo results timeline
Straight after the injections
Expect a small raised bump at each of the ten points, which can make the cheeks look slightly lumpy for the rest of the day. That is the gel before it spreads, and it is not the result. A little redness and the odd pinprick bruise are common.
Profhilo after 1 week
By day seven the bumps have gone and any bruise is fading. Some people notice their skin feels softer or looks a touch more hydrated, but most of the change has not started yet, so this is the week people most often think the treatment has done nothing. It is too early to judge.
Profhilo after 2 weeks
Around the two-week mark many people see the first real difference: skin that looks fresher, catches the light more evenly and feels smoother to the touch. This comes mainly from extra water held in the skin.
After the second session
The second session falls about four weeks after the first. Over the following eight weeks or so, firmness and fine texture keep improving as the skin makes more collagen and elastin. One practice that gives Profhilo at both UNTIL clubs describes the result peaking eight to ten weeks after this second session.
Around six months
The improvement usually lasts around six months, then fades gradually rather than stopping. Most people book one maintenance session at that point to keep it.
Profhilo before and after by area
Face
On the face the change is most visible across the cheeks and lower face: a smoother, less dehydrated surface and slightly better bounce when you press the skin. Fine lines on the cheeks soften. Deep folds beside the nose and mouth change little, because they need volume or support that Profhilo does not add.
Under the eyes
Many searches for before and after photographs are about the eyes. Because the standard injection points sit on the cheek and jaw, the skin under the eye improves only indirectly. A hollow tear trough or dark circles look much the same afterwards, so set expectations accordingly or ask about treatments made for the eye area.
Jowls and jawline
Firmer skin along the jaw can make early softening look a little crisper in profile. It will not lift a heavy jowl. Before-and-after photographs that show a sharply redefined jawline usually involve other treatments as well.
Neck
The neck is where many people see the clearest change in texture: crepey, dry skin looks smoother and more even, especially in the low light where neck lines show most. Deep horizontal neck lines soften only slightly.
Men
Men’s results follow the same timeline. The usual reasons are dry or weathered skin and early slackness along the jaw, and the aim is the same: healthier-looking skin with no change in features.
Body, hands and chest
Profhilo Body on the inner arms, abdomen or knees, and Profhilo on the hands or chest, follow the same course of two. Studies have measured better elasticity, hydration and density in these areas, and the change shows as smoother, less crepey skin rather than tightening; see crepey arms treatment.
How to judge your own Profhilo before and after
Light changes everything in skin photographs, so the only fair comparison is one you control. Take your before photographs in daylight by the same window, at the same time of day, without make-up, from the front and from each side. Repeat them about eight weeks after your second session and look at texture, the way the skin reflects light and any fine crepiness, rather than the shape of your face.
Online galleries vary for the same reason: different light, different angles and sometimes other treatments in the same period. Ask your practitioner to show you before-and-after photographs of their own patients taken in matching conditions. Profhilo side effects and aftercare covers the first few days in detail.
When the Profhilo result fades
The improvement fades slowly over months rather than ending on a set date, and a completed course usually holds for around six months. The gel itself is broken down by the body; what lasts is the skin’s own response. Profhilo prices include the cost of a single maintenance session, which most people book at around six months, and Profhilo prices in London compares the options. Courses are given at UNTIL Marylebone, 1 Orchard Street, a 4-minute walk from Marble Arch, and UNTIL Soho, 111 Charing Cross Road, beside Tottenham Court Road station.
FAQ
Profhilo before and after
questions
Will people notice I have had Profhilo?
Usually they notice that your skin looks well rather than that something was done, because nothing is filled or reshaped. In the first day or two the small injection bumps can be visible up close. Profhilo London suggests booking the first session at least a week before any event where you will be photographed.
Does Profhilo look better after the second session?
Yes, for most people. The first session starts the change and the second, about four weeks later, builds on it, with firmness and texture improving for around eight weeks afterwards. Profhilo London connects you with practitioners who plan both sessions from the start, because one session alone rarely shows the full result.
Can I see before and after photos from my practitioner?
You should ask. A practitioner who gives Profhilo regularly will usually have consented photographs of their own patients, taken in consistent light. Profhilo London shows none, because no patient has agreed to appear on this site, but the practitioner you meet through it can show you theirs at the assessment.
Why do Profhilo before and after photos look so different?
Lighting, angle, make-up and timing change skin photographs more than the treatment does, and some galleries show Profhilo combined with other procedures. Profhilo London recommends judging only your own photographs, taken by the same window before you start and about eight weeks after your second session.
Is one session of Profhilo enough to see results?
You may notice some improvement after the first session, but the treatment is designed as two, about four weeks apart, and the fuller change follows the second. Profhilo London connects you with practitioners who plan the course of two from the start, then a single maintenance session around six months later.
