Understanding How to Inject Profhilo in Clinical Aesthetic Practice

When we train clinicians at Dr. Dray Academy, one of the first things we clarify is this: Profhilo is not taught like a traditional dermal filler. It doesn’t behave like one, and it should not be injected like one.

Instead, Profhilo is a bio-remodelling injectable, meaning your success depends entirely on anatomical precision, tissue plane selection, and correct use of structured injection mapping.

This is where many newly trained injectors struggle — not because the product is complex, but because they were never properly taught how to think in anatomical layers.

In clinical practice, Profhilo is administered using Bio Aesthetic Points (BAP) in the face, and delivered into the superficial dermis of the neck to allow optimal spread and hydration of the extracellular matrix.

For a deeper understanding of facial anatomy and injectable safety principles, you can explore the structured training pathway in our Advanced Injectable Aesthetics Programme.

Facial Injection Mapping: Bio Aesthetic Points (BAP Protocol)

In structured aesthetic practice, Profhilo is delivered using a standardised Bio Aesthetic Points (BAP) system, which is designed to ensure predictable diffusion and minimise risk.

Each facial side typically includes five anatomical injection points, selected based on vascular safety zones and optimal tissue spread pathways:

  • Zygomatic prominence (malar region)
  • Preauricular region
  • Nasolabial base area
  • Chin (mental region)
  • Mandibular angle

From a training perspective, these are not random points — they are anatomically engineered access points into high-permeability tissue planes.

Depth of Injection – Face

Profhilo in the facial region is placed into the:

? Superficial subcutaneous plane

This allows controlled diffusion into the dermal matrix without structural distortion or volumisation effects.

Clinically, the goal is not placement accuracy alone — it is predictable spread within the superficial facial compartments.

Why Train with Dr Dray Academy

At Dr Dray Academy, our training is designed to go beyond basic techniques — focusing on the clinical judgement, precision, and full-face understanding required to deliver natural, high-level results.

Our approach is built on over 45 years of experience treating some of the world’s most discerning patients, and these techniques are practiced daily across our London, Paris, and Abu Dhabi clinics.

Neck Technique: Superficial Dermal Injection for Skin Quality

The neck requires a completely different approach compared to the face. In clinical training, this is often where technique errors become visible — particularly when injectors treat the neck like a volumising zone.

Profhilo is administered in the neck using:

? Superficial dermal placement

This is essential for:

  • Controlled hydration spread
  • Dermal remodelling
  • Improvement of skin laxity and texture

Unlike the face, the neck does not rely on subcutaneous diffusion. Instead, success depends on even, superficial deposition across thin dermal layers.

In practice, this requires:

  • Lower injection volume per point
  • Greater spacing control
  • Careful attention to skin thickness variation

This is exactly why structured training matters — because technique changes completely depending on anatomical region.

How to Inject Profhilo – Clinical Injection Mapping Explained

In this preview video, we demonstrate Profhilo BAP marking for the face, showing how to identify the key Bio Aesthetic Points used for accurate and consistent treatment planning. This technique helps clinicians understand facial mapping, safe placement, and the structured approach behind Profhilo treatment as part of regenerative aesthetics training.
