Hifu Facial Treatment: Growing In Popularity

HIFU stands for High Intensity Focused Ultrasound, and the HIFU facelift is a long-lasting, non-surgical, non-invasive treatment for face firming. HIFU uses ultrasonic energy to tighten and lift the skin, slowing down the natural aging process and is an ideal treatment for skin tightening. Compared to surgical facelifts, this focused ultrasound facial is more natural-looking, painless and low-cost with no downtime.

HIFU treatment uses ultrasound energy to target cells under the skin. Ultrasound heats these skin cells and creates controlled cell damage, boosting collagen production. Increased collagen production improves skin elasticity, leaving your skin firmer and firmer, and reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

Ideal candidates for HIFU treatment are those over the age of 30 with some degree of facial aging (mild to moderate skin laxity, fine lines and/or wrinkles). Those with moderately severe sunburn or sagging skin may need more sessions to see results. Older adults with sagging skin or severe sun damage may not be ideal candidates for a HIFU facial.

Some effects will be seen immediately after HIFU treatment, but it will take about 2-3 months to see the full effect, and the treatment effect will get better and better as the HIFU treatment time goes on. By maintaining a good skincare routine, the results will also last longer. Your skin will be firmer and more youthful.
