HIFU Treatments

What is HIFU?

High intensity focused ultrasound was first invented in the USA by Myron Medical Cosmetic Research Institution for areas of the face, neck and décolletage. Since its invention, many technology companies jumped on the concept to introduce it to the market. The HIFU treatment for areas of the face and neck is FDA approved and extremely effective in stimulating collagen reproduction and neo collagenesis, for tightening skin on the face and body and for getting rid of unwanted body fat. It actually gets rid of it so it doesn’t return by treating it at 65 degrees to eliminate the treated areas of fat.

No downtime, no time off work, no scarring or bruising, no bleeding and the results are natural looking.
The focused ultrasound energy skips the epidermis layer leaving no damage or scarring to the top layer of the skin and targets at the required depth of 1.5 mm, 3mm or 4.5mm for skin tightening in the suitable areas and up to 18mm for targeting the fat. The energy which is delivered at around 65 degrees will produce a thermal effect to the dermal collagen fibres and stimulate the SMAS and literally melts fat. The skin will be lifted and tightened, the fat will instantly melt and start to break down and be excreted from the body naturally. Some results will be seen instantly but with optimum results seen at 12 weeks post-treatment when the collagen regeneration process effects can be noticed, and the fat has left the body. The effects will last from 18 months up to 3 years with just one treatment for the skin tightening and for the body fat reduction results can be seen immediately and progressively. Top up treatments and a course of treatments may be required for fat reduction to achieve the desired results. There is no post-surgery downtime and you can resume your normal activities immediately. This is the only treatment currently on the market that treats the same depth (4.5mm below the skin surface) as is treated during a surgical operation– but without the surgery.

It’s virtually pain-free and effects vary depending on the person’s pain threshold, the treatment being performed correctly and having a good HIFU machine. A slight tingling sensation can be felt during treatment usually during skin tightening and during body fat reduction usually no pain is felt at all, although some people feel more uncomfortable than others.

HIFU Facelift FAQs

How long will a HIFU Facelift take?

The length of a HIFU facial session will depend on the area being treated and your desired results. A full HIFU face and neck procedure typically takes between 60-90 minutes, while a chest treatment by itself will take around 30 minutes.

Will I need to book time of work?

The great thing about the HIFU facelift is that you need no downtime whatsoever after a session. You can even arrange one on your lunch break from work and experience no interruption to your daily routine at all. There is no post-treatment aftercare and make up can be reapplied as normal at the end of your session.

How many sessions will I need?

Most clients only require one treatment, though this all depends on the individual’s skin laxity, response to the treatment, and the collagen-generation reaction.

How safe are HIFU Facials?

Ultrasound is a proven technology which has been in use for over 50 years. As the procedure uses only an ultrasound cartridge applicator over your face instead of any invasive surgical needles, there is limited bruising, swelling, pain, and downtime.

Will the effects wear off?

The HIFU ultrasound facial method has been developed over the years to ensure that the treatment effect is stronger than before, but it will take a bit of time after your session to see good results. The reason why the treatment takes time is that the sound waves penetrate deep into the skin to promote the natural production of collagen gradually. Consequently, this means that your HIFU facial results, though unhurried, will look completely natural. Furthermore, the ‘wearing off’ of results is also progressive and can take from over 9-12 months.

HIFU Body FAQs

How does it work?

The High Intensity Focused Ultrasound causes death of fat cells both safely and effectively. The damaged cells will then be flushed away via a natural removal process that continues for up to 3 months. The thermal effect of HIFU not only destroys the fat cells but creates collagen contraction in the treatment area, achieving a skin-tightening effect.

Which areas can be treated?

Body areas which are treatable with HIFU technology include the:

  • abdomen
  • hips
  • buttocks
  • inner thighs
  • outer thighs
  • inner arms

Is there any downtime?

Body HIFU is non-invasive procedure with no downtime.

What results will I see?

Body HIFU permanently destroys fat cells in the area being treated thus reducing the visible size of that area. Some results may be seen 1-2 weeks after treatment but final results typically take around 3-6 months depending on the individual.

What is HIFU Vaginal Tightening? (coming soon)

Sometimes women over time end up with a more relaxed vaginal area and decreased elasticity in the area.

The Hifu vaginal tightening treatment is an ultrasonic focusing technique that uses a vaginal probe to non-invasively give direct focus on mucosal lamina and the muscle layer. Using High intensity focused ultrasound energy waves as the energy source, using of the penetration and focality, Hifu vaginal tightening ultrasound system will send out ultrasonic energy focusing in the lamina propria and muscle fibre layer. In a predetermined depth layer of 3mm and 4.5mm. The collagen is reorganized and the normal tissue outside the focal region is not damaged. Tightening, increasing vaginal moisture, improving laxity in the area, improving stress incontinence, and improving sensitivity.
Clients report tighter vagina, improved sex, no more post-menopausal dry vagina, and no wetting themselves when trampolining!  The treatment is not usually painful at all during the procedure.

Suitable for:

  • Suitable for women who have vaginal relaxation and want vaginal tightening
  • Non-invasive tightening / Vaginal tightening
  • Increased lubrication–increase secretion, eliminate dryness
  • Improve sensation in the vaginal area –cell regeneration
  • Health – Comprehensive improvement, reduce infection
  • Improves stress incontinence (leaks)
  • No downtime, no time off work, no scarring or bruising, no bleeding. (Usually there is a surge of moisture in the area for a couple of days and then it settles down.)

It’s virtually pain-free and effects vary but results in a majority of women are fantastic and they notice great results. It’s important that the treatment is performed correctly by a trained professional and a good stable HIFU machine is used. A slight tingling sensation can be felt during treatment usually although some people feel more uncomfortable than others.

Effects from the treatment are seen usually from instantly to 1-3 months post-treatment and continue to develop for up to 12 months. The average takes an hour with a full consultation. The actual procedure usually takes just 20 minutes.

HIFU Vaginal Rejuvenation FAQs

How long will vaginal tightening take?

This non-invasive procedure can take 30 minutes to an hour.

Will I need to take time off work?

No downtime is necessary. The procedure requires no time off from work, and you can get straight back to your regular routine immediately after a session—though it’s advised to wait 24 hours before resuming exercise and at least 10 days before sexual intercourse. The Vaginal tightening treatment is the perfect alternative to surgical, invasive surgery.

How many sessions will I need?

While many women will only need one treatment for optimal results, others may benefit from 2-3 more to achieve the look and feel that they want. Sessions are generally scheduled 4-6 weeks apart.

How safe is the treatment?

The process is entirely safe. Ultrasound is a proven technology which has been in use for over 50 years. As the procedure uses only an ultrasound cartridge wand instead of any invasive surgical needles, there is no pain or downtime required. All procedures are performed by internationally trained and certified specialist. Our machines are FDA approved and CE medical certified.
