简要总结
Profhilo® Structura is composed of a buffered saline solution of high molecular weight (H-HA) and low molecular weight (L-HA) hyaluronic acid. The high- and low-molecular-weight HA used in the device is obtained by biofermentation and has not undergone chemical modification processes; this results in excellent tolerability of the product.
In addition, the HA chains with different molecular weight present in Profhilo® Structura, thanks to a specific and patented treatment of the solution (NAHYCO® Hybrid Technology), interact with each other, giving Profhilo® Structura unique rheological properties that allow higher concentrations of HA to be administered at equal viscosity of the solution.
The formulation based on HA with different molecular weight contained in Profhilo® Structura is based on the Hydrolift® Action system, the innovative approach aimed at combating the physiological decrease of HA in the skin, restoring hydration, elasticity and tone, synergistically associating deep hydration with the mechanical lifting action of the skin depression.
Thanks to its rheological properties and cohesivity Profhilo® Structura is able to optimally spread and integrate into the interstitial spaces of the adipose tissue. Profhilo® Structura has the specific indication for adipose tissue restoration and is able to counteract facial volume loss.
详细描述
Profhilo® Structura (HILOW 4.5% hyaluronic acid [HA] sodium salt for intradermal use; developed by IBSA Farmaceutici Italia Srl) is the first Conformité Européenne (CE)-certified HA-based injectable, sterilized, apyrogenic, and resorbable product indicated for female or male adults with mild-to-moderate volume loss in the face or neck to restore adipose tissue, correct and fill natural and induced cutaneous depressions, and improve skin laxity. Profhilo® Structura is also indicated for dermal tissue repair in adults with acne scars.
Profhilo® Structura contains a combination of high and low molecular weight HA chains that interact with each other for unique rheological characteristics that enable the administration of higher concentrations of HA, without an increase in viscosity.
Profhilo® Structura has a corrective/filling action on natural and induced skin depressions formed because of reduced endogenous HA levels and skin hydration, alteration of elastic fibers and collagen in the dermis, and loss of turgor and skin tone (all characteristics which can occur following excessive dehydration, weight loss, or aging). Administered subcutaneously by qualified personnel, the viscoelastic and moisturizing properties of the HA in Profhilo® Structura and the ability to maintain HA to adequate levels within skin tissues using this medical device, enables tissue rehydration, creates optimal conditions for tissue remodeling, and intervenes with the physiological process of skin ageing.
The administration of Profhilo® Structura allows the tissue restoration using the physiological amount of HA. Furthermore, HCC of high and low molecular weight HA combines the regenerating trophic effect of low molecular weight HA on the epidermis (a HYDRO effect), and the plastic modelling effect of high molecular weight HA on the dermis (a LIFT effect, also known as Hydrolift® Action).
Because of its rheological properties and cohesivity, Profhilo® Structura is able to optimally spread and integrate into the interstitial spaces of the adipose tissue. Profhilo® Structura is specifically indicated for adipose tissue restoration and is able to counteract facial volume loss.
