HIFU Treatment for Face and Neck Tightening
HIFU delivers focused thermal energy through the skin layers, safely reaching the SMAS to promote collagen regeneration.
How Does HIFU Work?
High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) energy to penetrate under 3~4.5mm of dermis layer and SMAS layer with damage-free to your skin and creates a part of thermocoagulation smaller than 1mm. Thermocoagulation helps to contracts the sagging skin tissue and lifts up the skin. Over the next 1-3 months, elastin and collagen are produced to maintain the lift.
For What Conditions Is HIFU Treatment Recommended?
Sagging Cheeks and Jawline
Sagging Double Chin

When Can Results Be Seen?
The tightening and lifting are seen immediately and the effect improves gradually over 3 months.
How Many Sessions Is Required?
The effect of HIFU can be seen after 1 session. The second session in a year is recommended to increase the tightening and lift. Recommended repeating every year to maintain and further improve facial tightening. This because ageing cannot be stopped but procedures can reverse and/or slow down the effect of ageing.
