What is HIFU therapy?
HIFU stands for “High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound” and is a relatively new cosmetic technology, having only been introduced for use in recent years. HIFU as a form of facial treatment employs the use of concentrated ultrasound energy to the face and neck by a handheld device. It is a non-invasive treatment that helps stimulate the cells, resulting in tissue rejuvenation and collagen production. The overall effect of the treatment is to promote tightening and lifting of the skin in these areas.

HIFU treatment can help stimulate tissue rejuvenation and collagen production – resulting in the tightening and lifting of saggy skin – and can also be used to break down fat deposits. In the hands of a skilled practitioner, this can produce results akin to facial sculpting (but without the need for surgery).

HIFU or High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound, is a non-invasive procedure that uses focused ultrasound energy to lift and tighten the skin on the face and neck. It stimulates collagen production, resulting in a firmer and more youthful appearance without surgery.

HIFU offers several benefits, including minimal downtime, allowing patients to return to their daily activities immediately after treatment. While some lifting effects may be noticeable right away, optimal results generally develop over two to three months as collagen production increases. The effects can last for up to a year or more, depending on individual factors such as skin condition and age.

How long does HIFU treatment last?
After your HIFU Treatment, you may see some initial effect, but the ultimate results will take place over 2-3 months, as your body naturally regenerates collagen. Since the procedure stimulates your own collagen production, how long the results last really depend on you.
