hifu High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound

 HIFU (High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound) is a non-invasive treatment that uses ultrasound energy to stimulate collagen production deep within the skin. It targets layers beneath the surface to lift, tighten, and firm the skin naturally without surgery or needles.

 HIFU is generally safe for most people who want to address mild to moderate skin laxity, fine lines, or sagging. It is most effective for clients in their 30s to 60s, though suitability depends on individual skin condition. A consultation is recommended before treatment. 

 A full HIFU facial usually takes 60 to 90 minutes, depending on the treatment area. Smaller targeted areas, such as the jawline or eyes, may take less time. 

 No, there is no downtime with HIFU. You can return to your normal daily activities right after your session. Some clients may experience mild redness, slight swelling, or tingling, which usually subsides within a few hours to days. 

 Some clients notice an immediate tightening effect after treatment, but the most significant results appear gradually over 2 to 3 months as collagen production increases. Results can last 12 to 18 months, depending on age, lifestyle, and skin condition. 

 Most clients achieve noticeable results with just one session. However, depending on your skin’s condition and desired outcome, maintenance treatments every 12 to 18 months are recommended to prolong results.

 HIFU is effective for tightening loose or sagging skin, reducing fine lines and wrinkles, lifting the cheeks and jawline, firming the neck, and improving overall skin tone and elasticity.

 Yes, HIFU can be combined with other non-invasive treatments such as facials, skin boosters, or injectables for enhanced results. Your esthetician will create a customized plan based on your goals.
