All about HIFU
HIFU works from deep inside the skin to give long-lasting results, more natural than surgical facelift. The procedure uses multiple beams of ultrasound rays that heat the skin tissues, which in turn contracts to tighten the deeper part of the skin; thus tightening the entire skin.
It works by heating the dermis and the superficial muscular aponeurotic system, the SMAS; which are the deeper parts of the skin, using a beam of ultrasound rays. The dermis and the SMAS respond by contracting thus tightening the entire skin.
How Does It Stimulate Collagen?
The non surgical ultrasound rays strengthen the collagen of the skin causing it to become firm. Which the rays also stimulate the responsible production of more collagen, which is responsible for firming the skin. As we age, collagen slowly fades away. HIFU will stimulate the natural productions of collagen helping you maintain the youthful look for years.
In about 1 to 6 weeks, you will be able to see the desired results. HIFU is non surgical and usually a gradual process, much better than surgical facelift therefore after the procedure, you won’t be able to see the results immediately, but after a month, you will notice a difference in your skin. In the following 12 months, your skin will look and feel younger. The production of collagen will help maintain the effects of a toned skin for the entire time. Natural collagen production increases over time.
How long it takes to see the Results after hifu procedure

Side Effects of the HIFU procedure
HIFU is not known to have permanent side effects as it is a non invasive procedure. After undergoing the treatment, you will experience slight redness on the area of the skin where HIFU was performed.
Most people have a great experience, the first step is that we treat every patient on an individual basis starting with one area at a time. This allows for new collagen to be formed and enough healing time for the skin in between HIFU sessions. However, the redness clears after a few minutes. Slight swelling and tenderness have been reported in patients who have undergone the treatment.
