High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound
HIFU, or High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound, is a non-invasive cosmetic procedure that uses ultrasound energy to lift and tighten the skin. It targets the deeper layers of skin, stimulating collagen production without damaging the surface. HIFU is particularly effective for reducing sagging, improving skin elasticity, and achieving a more youthful appearance. The treatment is suitable for various areas, including the face, neck, and décolletage.
How it Works
Ultrasound Delivery
HIFU uses high-frequency ultrasound waves that penetrate deep into the skin layers, targeting the dermis and subcutaneous tissues.
Thermal Effect
The ultrasound energy generates heat, which causes controlled thermal injury to the targeted areas, stimulating the body’s natural healing response.
Collagen Production
In response to the thermal effect, the body increases collagen production over time, leading to improved skin elasticity and firmness.
Non-Invasive
As a non-surgical procedure, HIFU requires no incisions or downtime, making it a convenient option for skin rejuvenation.
