HIFU stands for High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound. It is a non-invasive treatment that uses focused ultrasound energy to stimulate collagen production, leading to tighter and firmer skin. HIFU is commonly used for facial lifting, skin tightening, and wrinkle reduction.
HIFU delivers focused ultrasound energy to the deeper layers of the skin, including the superficial muscular aponeurotic system (SMAS) layer. This energy heats the targeted tissues, stimulating collagen production and triggering the skin’s natural healing process, resulting in a firmer and lifted appearance.
Yes, HIFU is a safe procedure when performed by a trained and certified practitioner. It is non-invasive and has been FDA-cleared for skin tightening and lifting. As with any cosmetic procedure, it’s important to have a consultation to ensure it is suitable for your skin type and condition.
The Ultraformer MPT can be used to treat various areas, including the face, neck, double chin, décolletage, abdomen, thighs, love handles, and more.
Patients may experience minimal discomfort during the procedure. We offer various analgesia options tailored to our patients’ needs, and most tolerate the procedure very well. The Ultraformer MPT, being one of the newest machines on the market, provides a more comfortable experience compared to other HIFU devices.
The Ultraformer MPT is approximately three times faster than its predecessor, the Ultraformer III. A typical HIFU treatment for the face and neck takes about 30 minutes, and the same duration applies to other areas, such as the abdomen, thighs, and love handles.
Results from HIFU are typically observed gradually over a period of 4 to 8 weeks.
HIFU results generally last for about 6 months. We recommend that patients repeat the procedure twice a year to achieve optimal results.
A small minority of patients may experience heat rash or redness after the procedure, but these symptoms typically subside within a few hours to a few days.
HIFU is suitable for individuals of all ages, particularly those with mild to moderate skin laxity. It can also be used as a preventive measure.
You can have additional sessions as early as 4 months after the initial procedure. It is recommended to have 1 to 2 or more sessions per year for optimal maintenance.
Side effects are typically mild and may include slight redness, swelling, or tingling in the treated area. These effects are temporary and usually resolve within a few hours to a few days. In rare cases, slight bruising or numbness may occur but will subside over time.
Yes, HIFU can be combined with other aesthetic treatments like dermal fillers, Botox, and laser therapy for enhanced results. A personalized treatment plan should be discussed with your practitioner to ensure safe and effective outcomes.
HIFU is generally safe for all skin types and tones. However, individuals with very lax skin, severe photodamage, or certain medical conditions may not be suitable candidates. A consultation with a certified practitioner is necessary to determine if HIFU is appropriate for you.
