Profhilo Structura could be replacing the need for fillers, and creating natural, plumper skin, perfect for long distance travellers.
I’ve long believed that the best beauty treatments are the ones no one can quite pinpoint. The kind that make people say, “You look amazing—did you just get back from holiday?” rather than “Have you had something done?”
So when I heard about Profhilo Structura, a new injectable that subtly rebuilds volume by enhancing the body’s own facial fat rather than artificially inflating it, I was intrigued—and cautiously optimistic.
Profhilo has been something of a quiet revolution in aesthetic medicine. When the first product was released, Australians were the biggest users per head of capita in the world.
And this new product is expected to be even more popular. Unlike traditional fillers that can alter the shape of the face or create volume where none previously existed, Structura works with what you already have. Specifically, it stimulates and restructures existing facial fat, restoring the natural, soft scaffolding that defines a youthful face—without changing the fundamental architecture.
I booked my appointment with a trusted local cosmetic doctor at All Saint Clinic In Double Bay Sydney whose approach is firmly rooted in restraint and subtlety. She explained that Profhilo Structura differs from the original Profhilo (which primarily boosts hydration and collagen) in that it targets deeper layers of the skin and subcutaneous tissue, particularly areas where facial fat has begun to thin or shift. Think temples, under the eyes, and the mid-face.
The treatment itself was refreshingly quick. I opted for some gas to relax. Then using a very fine needle, the doctor injected small amounts of the formula into targeted areas—mainly my temples and the sides of my cheeks where, in recent years, volume had quietly disappeared.
There was a mild sensation of pressure, but it wasn’t overly uncomfortable. No numbing, no downtime. I left the clinic with nothing more than a few tiny pinpricks and went straight back to my day.
The magic of Profhilo Structura is in its subtle unfolding. In the weeks that followed, something quietly miraculous happened. My face began to look… softer. Fuller, but not in a puffy or unnatural way. My under-eye area looked less hollow, my cheeks regained a gentle roundness, and the overall tone and elasticity of my skin noticeably improved. Yet I didn’t look “done”—just rested, refreshed, and undeniably better.
I have a round face and with Profhilo Strctura, that roundness returned, as the face naturally looked fuller, but this intern made me look younger and fresher.
What I loved most was that my facial expressions weren’t altered. There was no tell-tale frozen forehead or exaggerated cheekbone. Instead, I looked like myself—but the version of myself that had perhaps had more sleep, less stress, and far fewer hot Australian summers.
Three weeks in, the compliments began trickling in. A friend asked what new skincare I was using. A day after I had the treatment I was in Bali, and a colleague I work with in a luxury hotel there told me I looked “really well.” My teenage daughter even asked if I’d had a facial. I smiled quietly.
Interestingly I flew within 48 hours of having the treatment and my face did become a touch puffier – which only enhanced the positive effects of Profhilo Structura.
The Second Session: A Beautiful Boost
Three months later, I returned for the recommended second session—an essential step in the Profhilo Structura protocol. As with the first treatment, the experience was swift and seamless. This time, knowing what to expect, I felt even more confident. The injections were targeted again to the mid-face, with a few additional touchpoints where volume subtly wanes with time. It did hurt, but again I had gas to lessen the anxiety and minor pain.
The results were, if anything, even more impressive.
Within days, my skin looked noticeably smoother and more lifted. That quiet, youthful fullness had returned, especially around the eye area and cheekbones. Once again, I boarded a flight shortly after the treatment—this time to London—and noticed a gentle puffiness emerge post flight. But instead of looking bloated or overfilled, my face looked radiant and fresh, as though I had just come from a rejuvenating retreat.
It’s worth noting that the slight post-treatment swelling only served to enhance the glow—so much so that airport staff and even flight attendants commented on how “well-rested” I looked. There’s something undeniably luminous about the post-Structura complexion, and after this second session, it lingered even longer.
This reaffirmed what makes Profhilo Structura so exceptional: it doesn’t just restore—it refines. After two sessions, my face didn’t just look “better”—it looked naturally lifted, healthier, and more resilient. The kind of quietly powerful transformation you can carry confidently into any room, meeting, or getaway.
The real power of Profhilo Structura lies in its philosophy. It doesn’t attempt to hijack your face with artificial contours or trends. Instead, it quietly reminds your body what it once had—and encourages it to rebuild, gently and gracefully. It’s beauty by encouragement, not imposition.
Would I do it again? Absolutely. In fact it is reccommended to have the treatment in two lots over the first 12 months. It’s the kind of treatment that aligns with how I want to age: naturally, elegantly, and with a little help from science that respects what’s already there.
