Non-Surgical Face Lift- HIFU

What is HIFU?

HIFU, or High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound, is a non-surgical facelift that revitalizes the skin's three depths, giving a youthful, tighter, and lifted look. It uses micro-focused ultrasound to stimulate collagen and elastin production in the dermal layer while targeting the SMAS layer to create lift and contouring. The result is a natural-looking lift and tightening without the need for surgery.

HIFU Q&A

  • High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) is a cutting-edge cosmetic procedure that employs focused ultrasound energy to concentrate on various skin layers. The treatment involves heating the cells and tissues to 60-70 degrees Celsius, which triggers the production of collagen. As a result, the skin appears taut and firm, with a noticeable improvement in texture following the procedure.

  • HIFU penetrates at a much deeper level than any Radio Frequency (RF) Skin Tightening device. RF can be inconsistent with bulk dermal heating and not reach the optimal collagen remodelling temperature of 42-45 degrees celsius and higher.

    Radio Frequency requires multiple sessions (6-12) to see a noticeable tightening and lifting effect, whereas HIFU requires only one or two sessions for dramatic results.

  • Following your HIFU treatment, you'll notice almost immediately that your skin feels firmer and looks lifted. However, the full effect of the treatment may take up to 12 weeks to show. Over time, you'll continue to see a significant improvement in facial contouring, as well as a visible reduction in fine lines and wrinkles.

  • In the hands of an experienced clinician such as Krystal, HIFU can be combined with other treatment modalities to have greater results. With close to 10 years of experience in medical aesthetics, Krystal can tailor any treatment option to give you the best result.

  • HIFU treatment times depend on the area treated. We estimate 60-90 min for HIFU treatments and include extra components to provide you with the most effective treatment outcome.

  • Although side effects are rare, there is a slight possibility that they may occur. Generally, these side effects are mild and temporary, including slight skin redness that will disappear within 30 minutes. Following their HIFU treatment, some people may experience slight tenderness or sensitivity for a few days up to a week or two. This is usually an indication that the treatment is working deep within the skin.
