Service Description

HIFU stands for High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound. It's a non-surgical treatment that uses focused ultrasound energy to target deeper layers of your skin and stimulate collagen production. Collagen is a protein that gives skin its plumpness and elasticity, so boosting collagen levels can lead to tighter, smoother skin. Here's how HIFU works: Targeted Heating: During the procedure, a HIFU device emits high-frequency sound waves that penetrate specific depths within your skin. These targeted areas are heated up. Controlled Injury: The heat creates a small, controlled injury within the targeted tissue. Don't worry, this injury is microscopic and triggers your body's natural healing response. Collagen Boost: As your body heals the treated area, it ramps up collagen production to repair and strengthen the tissue. This collagen boost is what leads to firmer, younger-looking skin. Benefits of HIFU: Non-surgical and minimally invasive Little to no downtime Can target specific areas like jowls, brow line, and neck Improves skin laxity, wrinkles, and fine lines Questions and Answers about HIFU: Is HIFU painful? Most people experience minimal discomfort during the procedure. How long does a HIFU treatment take? A HIFU session typically takes 30-90 minutes, depending on the size of the treated area. When will I see results? Some improvement may be visible right after treatment, but the full effects of HIFU take time as collagen production increases. You will see the best results 2-3 months after the procedure. How long do HIFU results last? Results typically last 12-18 months, but can last up to 2 years. Who is a good candidate for HIFU? HIFU is generally safe for most people with moderate skin laxity and signs of aging. However, it's not suitable for everyone. Consultation with a qualified aesthetics practitioner is important to determine if HIFU is right for you
