Skin Care Review: Elemis Pro-Collagen Marine Cream

by

Why is everyone talking about Collagen?

‘Collagen’ is a naturally occurring protein in our bodies, it helps us build and strengthen our skin’s elasticity, our hair, muscles, and bones. But as we age, the amount of collagen in our body decreases and factors such as excess sun exposure, diet, sleep, and exercise also affect our collagen production. As we age the collagen fibres in our bodies decrease and are damaged, causing the thickness and strength of the cells to reduce. This results in the skin becoming less firm, fine lines forming and wrinkles appearing. Using collagen rich products is one way to help combat fine lines and wrinkles.

Elemis Pro – Collagen Marine Cream

This cream is an award-winning CEW UK Beauty Award Winner 2020. It is an ultra-light gel cream that sinks into the skin and is packed with omega 3, helping improve skin elasticity and texture by strengthening the skin’s barrier.

★★★★★ 2 days ago

Pro Collagen Marine Cream

My skin looks and feels vibrant. I’ve been using this cream for many years and it is simply the best I’ve ever used.

★★★★★ 6 days ago

Elemis Pro Collagen Marine Cream

It’s fantastic, great product. Absorbs easily – goes a long way. I get many comments about

how good my skin looks and that I look much younger than my age.

★★★★★ 5 months ago Amazing!

I wish I didn’t like this as much as I do, because I grudge the price point but it is really nice. I have combination skin with dry patches and this really works to smooth out and hydrate my skin. I tend to prefer thicker moisturisers because I think they hydrate my skin the best, but this is really lightweight and still makes my skin feel quenched. It’s lovely for prepping my skin for makeup too.

★★★★★ 5 months ago

I’m Hooked

I’m hooked on Pro-Collagen Marine Cream. It’s lightweight but feels luxurious and a little goes a long way, so a tub will last for a while. I tried it as a sample a few years ago and I’ve been hooked ever since

We look forward to welcoming you soon.

Introducing…PROFHILO® at Kensington MediSpa

by

PROFHILO® at Kensington MediSpa

Within the field of aesthetics new products are often introduced and after the initial buzz that is generated both practitioners & patients realise that unfortunately it doesn’t live up to the hype. This however is not the case with PROFHILO® and since its launch in March 2015 I have consistently heard positive things and seen excellent results.  In fact, Profhilo has won multiple awards in the aesthetics industry including an award for the best injectable product in Europe.

What is it?

Profhilo was developed by IBSA Italia and contains 64mg of natural, non-cross-linked hyaluronic-acid. It is important to know that it is not a dermal filler.  Profhilo does not stay where it is injected, instead it spreads beneath the skin so works throughout the tissues to hydrate, lift and contour.

What is it used to treat?

It provides intense hydration to the skin making it appear brighter and stimulates collagen and elastin to treat skin laxity.  Areas that can be treated include the face, neck, upper chest and hands.

Is it safe?

PROFHILO is very biocompatible.  It is a highly purified natural hyaluronic acid that does not contain any chemical agents to modify the structure.  The risk of adverse reactions are therefore very low.

What does the procedure involve?

For the face, the procedure consists of five injection points on each side.  These five points (see diagram below) are known as Bio Aesthetic Points (BAP) and were selected to maximise the spread of the product. The procedure takes around 5-10 minutes and there is minimal down time.  Swelling resolves within 1-5 days.

Diagram Showing the 5 Bio Aesthetic Points

When will I see results?

A course of two treatments are recommended 4 weeks apart.  Improvement in skin hydration is seen within 4 weeks and improvement in skin laxity is seen 4 weeks after the second treatment.

Before/ Afters

The pictures below demonstrate the improvements in skin texture and hydration from Profhilo. The bioremodelling effect results in improvements in skin laxity.
