As we age, skin loses elasticity, hydration, and natural volume, leading to fine lines, sagging, and a tired appearance. While cosmetic surgery is an option, many patients prefer minimally invasive treatments that offer noticeable results with minimal downtime.
Two popular options for facial rejuvenation are Profhilo and traditional dermal fillers. At Dr. Rami Hamed Center (DRHC) in Dubai, we understand that choosing the right treatment can feel overwhelming. Here’s a clear guide to help you make an informed decision.
Profhilo is a unique skin remodeling treatment that uses highly purified hyaluronic acid to deeply hydrate and stimulate collagen and elastin production. Unlike traditional fillers, it does not add volume but improves skin quality, firmness, and overall radiance.
Benefits of Profhilo:
Profhilo is ideal for patients looking for subtle rejuvenation and skin quality improvement, rather than volume restoration.
Dermal fillers are gel-like substances injected under the skin to restore lost volume, smooth wrinkles, and enhance facial contours. Most fillers contain hyaluronic acid, which attracts water to plump the skin.
Benefits of Traditional Fillers:
Fillers are ideal for patients who want to restore facial volume or correct specific lines and folds.

At DRHC Dubai, many patients benefit from a combination approach, using Profhilo for overall skin quality and fillers for targeted volume restoration.
