HArmonyCa and Profhilo Structura Treatments, London and West Malling, Kent
The world of injectable skin treatments has expanded rapidly in recent years. We now have a wide range of options that go far beyond traditional fillers and Botox, focusing instead on improving the quality, firmness and structure of the skin itself.
Two standout treatments in this category are HArmonyCa and Profhilo Structura. While both are designed to support skin integrity and deliver long-term improvements, they work in different ways and are suited to different types of concerns.
If you’re considering regenerative injectables but are not sure which one is right for you, here’s what you need to know.
What is HArmonyCa?
HArmonyCa is an injectable biostimulator that combines hyaluronic acid (HA) with calcium hydroxyapatite (CaHA) in a single syringe. Hyaluronic acid provides immediate hydration and instant volumisation, while calcium hydroxyapatite works over time to stimulate your skin’s own collagen production.
This dual-action formula makes HArmonyCa ideal for those looking to firm and lift the skin while also improving elasticity and support. It’s particularly effective in the lower face, jawline and cheeks – areas that tend to lose volume and definition as collagen levels decline
Unlike traditional dermal fillers, HArmonyCa focuses more on structure and skin quality. Results are immediately visible but continue to improve over several months, with visible tightening and smoothing effects that continue to develop.
What is Profhilo Structura?
Profhilo Structura is a newer addition to the Profhilo family, designed specifically to address fat loss in the mid and lower face. It still uses hyaluronic acid, but in a more concentrated, thermally stabilised form that is injected more deeply than the original Profhilo. This allows it to target areas where we typically see a loss of fat and firmness over time.
Structura works by hydrating the deeper layers of the skin while also stimulating fibroblasts to produce collagen and elastin. The result is improved skin density, better definition, and a subtle lift.
It doesn’t change the shape of your face. Instead, it works to gently restore fat pads which have deflated over time with the natural ageing process.
What’s the difference between them?
While both treatments aim to improve the appearance of the mid and lower face, there are several key differences.
HArmonyCa offers a combination of instant volumisation and longer-term lift, thanks to the dual action of HA and CaHA. It’s ideal for patients who want visible skin tightening along the jawline or lower face, especially where skin laxity is starting to develop.
Profhilo Structura focuses more on restoring deflated superficial fat pads. It’s better suited for earlier signs of volume loss, such as skin that feels thinner, less resilient, or more hollowed in areas like the cheeks and lower face.
Another practical difference is where and how the products are placed. HArmonyCa tends to be used slightly more superficially, targeting skin laxity and collagen stimulation in the subcutaneous layer. Structura is injected deeper to reach the superficial fat pads.
Which treatment is right for you?
Choosing between HArmonyCa and Profhilo Structura comes down to your skin needs and the kind of results you’re hoping to achieve.
If your skin feels slack, sagging, or less firm, particularly around the jawline or cheeks, HArmonyCa may be a better fit. It offers more lift, more immediate definition and a firmer feel over time.
If your concern is more about early volume depletion or subtle facial hollowing, Profhilo Structura may be the better option. It works to restore internal support and may also improve skin texture from the inside out.
In some cases, these treatments can even complement each other as part of a longer-term plan. That’s why a consultation is always the best place to start. We’ll assess your skin, listen to your goals, and recommend the best option to support your skin from every angle.
Ready to strengthen and lift your skin from within?
Both HArmonyCa and Profhilo Structura are powerful tools for regenerative skin improvement, with natural-looking results and very little downtime. If you’re looking for an injectable treatment that doesn’t alter your appearance but helps you look fresher, firmer and more defined, we’d love to help you explore your options.
