HIFU (High Intensity Focused Ultrasound)
HIFU is a fast, safe, painless, non-invasive procedure that uses concentrated ultrasound thermal energy to target skin, fat or muscle without affecting the surrounding tissue or skin surface. It eliminates signs of aging by tightening skin, destroying body fat, reducing wrinkles, body contouring to achieve a more youthful, vibrant and shapely look.
How does HIFU work?
HIFU uses high energy waves that precisely focus intense, tiny points of heat into the skin, fat or muscle without affecting the surrounding tissue or skin surface. It is used for safe and effective skin rejuvenation. Immediate results can be seen. 1-3 sessions 4 weeks apart can achieve long lasting skin rejuvenation.
HIFU Procedure:
After assessment of the area and medical history of the patient, the skin is cleaned and then marked out to guide the treatment process. Ultrasound gel is applied, after which the HIFU hand piece is applied over the treatment area. Rows of rapid, precisely aimed ultrasonic heat energy is released. It makes a warm prickling sensation. This is repeated over the whole treatment area, potentially at different treatment depths, to contour and achieve results specifically suited to the patient’s needs.
Results: Immediate results can be seen.
Number of sessions needed: Delivers dramatic results in as little as 1-3 sessions 4 weeks apart. Results take at least 2-3 months to manifest. Results could last 1-3 years without maintenance.
