High Intensity Focused Ultrasound
What is HIFU?
A high intensity focused ultrasound facial (HIFU), a non-invasive treatment for facial aging and face and body skin tightening. This treatment provides some of the benefits of a facelift without the need for surgery or the downtime.
A HIFU facial uses ultrasound to create heat at a deep level in the skin. This heat damages targeted skin cells, causing the body to stimulate a healing response. To do this, the body produces collagen to aid in cell regrowth. Collagen is a substance in the skin that gives it structure and elasticity in turn reducing fine lines and wrinkles.
HIFU is dramatically effective in the following areas of concern:
- tightening the skin on the neck
- reducing the appearance of jowls
- lifting drooping eyelids or eyebrows
- smoothing wrinkles on the face
- smoothing and tightening lose skin on other areas if the body such as tummy, arms, thighs etc.
