Targets the superficial fat pads that hold the mid-face up, restoring structure and freshness without the heaviness of adding volume.
“I wanted lift without looking filled. This is the first thing that has actually done that.”
The mid-face does not fall because the skin gets loose. It falls because the fat pads that hold it up lose their structure.
Profhilo Structura is a practical option when you want to address loss of facial support and early structural sagging. It works on the superficial fat compartments of the face, the layer that gives the mid-face its lift and that begins to lose integrity well before skin laxity becomes the visible problem.
Unlike a dermal filler, it does not occupy space to create volume. It integrates into the fat pad and supports its structure, which is why the result reads as restored support rather than added fullness. This is the distinction that matters most when someone wants lift without looking treated.
It improves age-related hollowing without the heavy or overfilled appearance that can come from treating the same concern with volume. A course of two to three sessions spaced four weeks apart is typically advised, depending on your skin's current condition.
Standard Profhilo works on skin quality, hydrating and bio-remodelling the skin itself. Structura works on the fat compartments underneath it. They address different layers and they solve different problems.
The two can be injected alongside each other, and frequently the best plan uses both. Your consultation will establish which layer your face is actually asking for.
Book nowWe assess the mid-face specifically for loss of structural support, distinguishing it from skin laxity and from volume loss. This determines whether Structura, standard Profhilo, filler or a combination is the right route.
Numbing cream is applied 15 to 30 minutes before treatment for your comfort. The product is placed into the superficial fat compartments. The injection may feel like a dull ache lasting a few seconds.
Slight redness, mild swelling and small bumps at the injection sites are common and usually resolve within 24 to 48 hours. Tenderness may persist a little longer. Do not apply makeup for 24 hours.
Structura suits early structural loss in the mid-face, particularly for people who want lift but have declined filler.
If the loss of support has progressed beyond what Structura can address, we will tell you honestly and set out what would actually achieve the result you want.
Final pricing is confirmed at your consultation, based on the amount of product that genuinely suits you. No obligation to proceed.

Yes. They work on different layers, Structura on the fat compartments and standard Profhilo on skin quality, and they are frequently planned together.
Minimal. Most patients return to normal activities immediately, with injection point reactions settling within a day or two.
Filler adds volume by occupying space. Structura integrates into the superficial fat compartments to support existing structure, which is why it restores lift without a filled appearance.
