What is Profhilo Structura?
Profhilo Structura is an injectable treatment developed to address age-related changes in the superficial fat compartments of the face. These tissues help give the face its natural fullness and support, and changes in them can contribute to a hollow or less supported appearance.
Although it belongs to the Profhilo family, Structura has a different formulation and treatment focus from standard Profhilo. At Skin Techniques, we consider it when changes beneath the skin are relevant to your concern, rather than treating skin hydration alone.
What it helps
What can Profhilo Structura help with?
Profhilo Structura may help improve the appearance of age-related hollowness and changes in support through the mid and lower face. You might notice that your cheeks look less full or that the outline of your face has changed over time.
We assess facial volume loss alongside your skin and facial proportions before recommending treatment. This helps us explain whether Structura, dermal fillers or another approach is best suited to the change you’d like to make.

How it works
How does Profhilo Structura work?
Profhilo Structura is placed in the superficial fat layer using a carefully planned injection technique. Its hyaluronic acid formulation is designed for this tissue, with the aim of improving the appearance of support and contours affected by age-related changes.
Treatment is planned around your facial anatomy and the areas contributing to your concern. We allow time for the response to develop across your course before assessing the result and discussing the next steps.
Our approach
Our personalised approach to skin regeneration
Not all skin boosters do the same thing. Some focus on hydration and glow, while others help improve texture, elasticity or firmness. You might come to us interested in a particular treatment, but another option could be better suited to your skin and the changes you’d like to see.
At Skin Techniques, we take time to understand what’s causing your concern before recommending a treatment. We look at your skin quality and your face as a whole, then explain which options could help and why. Whether that’s one skin booster or a combination of treatments, your plan is built around you—you don’t need to know exactly what to book.
Your questions
Common questions about Profhilo Structura
Can Profhilo Structura help cheeks that look hollow with age?
It may be appropriate when changes in the superficial facial fat are contributing to a hollow or less supported appearance. We’ll assess your cheeks and wider facial proportions to understand what has changed and explain whether Structura could help achieve the improvement you want.
What is the difference between Profhilo and Profhilo Structura?
Standard Profhilo focuses on hydration and skin quality. Structura is formulated for treatment of the superficial facial fat layer, addressing a different aspect of facial ageing. We’ll explain which treatment focus is more relevant to your concern.
Is Profhilo Structura the same as cheek filler?
They are different treatments, although both may be discussed when someone is concerned about changes in their cheeks. Cheek filler can add targeted volume or definition, while Structura has a different formulation and tissue focus. We’ll help you understand the result each approach is intended to achieve.
How much does Profhilo Structura cost in Amersham?
Profhilo Structura at Skin Techniques starts from £350 per treatment. An initial course usually involves more than one appointment, so we’ll explain the full recommended plan and cost before you begin. Maintenance is discussed after reviewing your response.
