HIFU - High Intensity Focused Ultrasound

HIFU & All You Need to Know About this Stunning Gold Standard Treatment for Skin Tightening

What is the most common concern for most of us as we age? The loss of firmness in our skin which results in sagging, fine lines, deep lines, ageing fat deposits, loss of defined jaw line, loose hanging skin on neck and an overall appearance of ageing.

As we get older, we naturally produce less collagen and elastin and the collagen that is produced is of lesser quality. This results the appearance of age that we all hate.

The HIFU Non-surgical facelift targets cells that are responsible for firming and providing structural support to our skin. HIFU has the ability to treat shallow (1.5mm) for rejuvenation & glow, deep collagen & elastin fibres (3mm) reduce fat deposits and to sculpt areas of the face or body (3mm) and HIFU will tighten the SMAS (Muscle) that holds our skin up, like scaffolding for our face (4.5mm)

Thus is the ultimate non-surgical facelift as there are no needles, no scars and no downtime at all. We have triggered a cascade of new collagen & elastin fibres to be birthed in your skin along with tightening and shrinking the existing collagen & elastin fibres.

High Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) is a non-invasive skin tightening modality using the technology of deep reaching ultrasonic waves to stimulate new collagen and new elastin. HIFU not only creates new collagen production, but it tightens existing collagen and elastin fibres, just like putting your denim jeans in the dryer.

This gold standard modality for skin tightening is so popular as there is no downtime at all and it delivers incredible and visible results. As it is a fractionated treatment (which means that only some of the tissue is affected, leaving healthy tissue all around the controlled wound), this results in quicker healing, more cell-to-cell communication and less risk of any sort.

HIFU helps to lift and firm skin without downtime or side-effects. The use of deep ultrasound wavelengths on sagging and lax skin is an incredible modality for everyone wanting to lift and firm their skin, This treatment has very few contraindications and is suitable for most people wanting a non-surgical option to firm and lift that skin.
