Who is a candidate for Profound?

Ideal candidates for Profound struggle with sagging skin in the cheeks and jowls, wrinkles, volume loss, and other signs of facial aging. Unlike some other non-surgical skincare treatments, Profound is safe for all skin types and tones. Asian, African-American, Hispanic, and Middle Eastern patients can all enjoy the incredible benefits of Profound without worrying about post-procedure hyperpigmentation. Patients will undergo a detailed consultation with Dr. Brace and his compassionate London team to ensure Profound is the best option for meeting their aesthetic goals.

What will my treatment entail?

Nurse Jocelyn performs Profound Skin Tightening treatments with precision and safety. She will first numb the skin with a topical anesthetic, ensuring your session is comfortable and stress-free. She will then insert five pairs of silicone-coated microneedles, which create micro-injuries below the skin’s surface. This is what begins the collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid replacement process. The needle tips are equipped with temperature sensors that monitor the amount of radiofrequency energy emitted to the skin, protecting the epidermis while ensuring uniform, customized results. Treatment is typically completed within 30-90 minutes.

Recovery after Profound Skin Tightening in London

The skin may appear red and swollen after your session, with swelling peaking over the next few days before it gradually subsides. If the procedure is performed on a Friday, by Monday the swelling will be much more manageable. Within a few days, the patient can use cosmetics to camouflage any remaining discoloration.

It can take two full weeks for all side effects to completely fade. This describes social downtime, not the patient’s ability to resume their normal tasks and activities, which is restored immediately. As collagen, elastin, and HA production are ramped up, patients will gradually see a firmer, more youthful-looking complexion over the course of about six months.
