Introducing HIFu
​
High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) is a non-invasive skin tightening treatment that uses ultrasound energy to stimulate collagen and elastin production deep within the skin. By targeting the deeper layers, HIFU effectively lifts, firms, and rejuvenates the skin without the need for surgery or downtime. This treatment is commonly used to reduce fine lines, wrinkles, and sagging, particularly on the face, neck, and décolletage, delivering natural-looking, long-lasting results.
​​
How does it work?
HIFU works by delivering precise ultrasound energy deep into the skin, targeting the SMAS layer—the same layer treated in surgical facelifts. This energy generates heat, triggering the body’s natural collagen and elastin production, resulting in firmer, tighter, and more lifted skin over time. The treatment is non-invasive, requires minimal downtime, and provides gradual, long-lasting rejuvenation.

What to Expect During the Treatment
Your HIFU treatment begins with a consultation to assess your skin and customise the procedure to your needs. During the session, a cooling gel is applied, and the ultrasound device is moved over the treatment area, delivering focused energy deep into the skin. You may feel a mild warming or tingling sensation as the ultrasound energy stimulates collagen production. The treatment is generally well tolerated, with minimal discomfort and no downtime. Depending on the area being treated, the session can take 30 to 90 minutes, and you can resume normal activities immediately after. Over the following weeks, your skin will gradually become firmer, smoother, and more lifted as collagen production increases.
Who Is This Treatment Suitable For?
HIFU is ideal for those seeking a non-invasive, skin-tightening solution to address mild to moderate skin laxity. It effectively lifts and firms areas such as the jawline, neck, cheeks, and brow, while also smoothing fine lines and wrinkles and enhancing facial contours. Suitable for all skin types, HIFU is best for individuals looking to improve skin elasticity without surgery or downtime. However, for those with severe skin laxity, alternative treatments may be more effective. A consultation is recommended to determine if HIFU is the right option for your skin goals.
Results:
HIFU delivers gradual, natural-looking improvements, with skin becoming firmer, tighter, and more lifted over time. Some clients may notice an immediate subtle lift, but the most significant results develop over 8 to 12 weeks as collagen production increases. These results can last up to 12 to 18 months, depending on individual skin quality and lifestyle factors.
Aftercare:
-
No downtime – You can resume normal activities immediately.
-
Mild redness or slight swelling may occur but usually subsides within a few hours.
-
Avoid excessive heat exposure, such as saunas, hot showers, or direct sun, for 24–48 hours.
-
Stay hydrated to support collagen production and skin healing.
-
Use SPF daily to protect and maintain your results.
-
Avoid harsh skincare treatments for a few days post-procedure.
