What is a HIFU Treatment?
A HIFU treatment uses High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound technology to safely lift and tighten your skin without surgery. The device delivers targeted ultrasound energy to the deep layers of your skin, bypassing the surface. This focused energy heats the tissue, which stimulates your body’s natural production of collagen and elastin—the proteins responsible for your skin’s firmness and elasticity. Over time, as new collagen forms, your skin gradually becomes firmer, tighter, and more lifted, resulting in a visible non-surgical facelift and a more youthful contour.






Concerns Addressed by a HIFU Treatment
A HIFU treatment is an excellent solution for anyone looking to combat the signs of aging without surgery or downtime. This powerful, non-invasive procedure effectively addresses a variety of common concerns, including:
Sagging Jawline & Jowls: HIFU is highly effective at lifting and tightening the skin along the jawline, restoring a more defined and youthful contour to the lower face.
Loose Skin on the Neck: The treatment can firm and tighten the skin on the neck, helping to reduce the appearance of a “turkey neck” and giving the area a smoother, more lifted look.
Drooping Brows & Hooded Eyelids: By targeting the brow area, HIFU can create a subtle lift, opening up the eyes and giving the face a refreshed and more awake appearance.
Fine Lines & Wrinkles: The collagen-stimulating effect of a HIFU treatment works to smooth out fine lines and wrinkles on the face, improving your skin’s overall texture and firmness.
Overall Skin Laxity: If your skin has lost its elasticity and feels less firm, a HIFU facelift can restore its youthful snap and provide a comprehensive tightening effect.
Aftercare for Your HIFU Treatment
A HIFU treatment requires no downtime, but proper aftercare is essential to maximize your results. Following these simple steps will help your skin’s natural collagen production and ensure a smooth recovery.
Do's
Stay Hydrated: Drink plenty of water in the days following your treatment. Hydrated skin responds better to the collagen-building process.
Protect Your Skin from the Sun: Your skin may be more sensitive after HIFU. Use a broad-spectrum SPF 30+ sunscreen daily, and wear a hat when you are outdoors to prevent damage.
Use a Gentle Skincare Routine: Avoid using harsh products or exfoliants for at least 3-5 days. Use a gentle cleanser and a soothing, hydrating moisturizer.
Be Patient: The results of HIFU are gradual. It can take 2-3 months to see the full lifting and tightening effect as your body’s collagen rebuilds.
Dont's
Don’t Expose Your Skin to Heat: For 48 hours, avoid saunas, hot tubs, steam rooms, and hot showers, as excessive heat can cause inflammation.
Don’t Use Active Ingredients: Avoid products containing retinol, glycolic acid, or other strong active ingredients for at least one week.
Don’t Take NSAIDs: Avoid anti-inflammatory medications like Ibuprofen, Advil, or Aspirin for a few weeks after your treatment, as they can interfere with the inflammatory response needed to stimulate new collagen.
Don’t Participate in Strenuous Exercise: Avoid intense workouts for at least 24 hours to prevent sweating and flushing, which can cause minor swelling.
