Your HIFU Guide - Benefits of HIFU treatment
What is HIFU?
HIFU treatment is a high intensity focused ultrasound facial, or HIFU facial. HIFU is a non-invasive, non-surgical treatment for facial aging. This procedure is the latest technology for anti-aging treatments that and provides the same benefits of a facelift, effectively tightening and lifting the skin using ultra-sound energy. HIFU is a relatively new cosmetic treatment for skin tightening, and it uses ultrasound energy to encourage the production of new collagen, resulting in firmer skin.
How does it work?
HIFU is a non-invasive procedure that allows targeting the deepest layers of the skin. HIFU uses ultrasound energy to heat up the tissues below the surface of the skin with precision. Focused beams harmlessly pass through your skin without damaging the skin surface, to reach the deeper layers of the skin, effectively melting excess fats, and stimulating for your body to produce more collagen. A larger amount of collagen produced results in healthier, less dull and more importantly, tighter skin, creating a lifting and toning effect on the treated area.
Focusing HIFU at 1.5 mm targets the Superficial Dermis Layer of the skin, effectively targets reducing the amount of melanin, resulting in glowy, brighter skin tone, improved skin texture and smaller pores.
Focusing HIFU at 3.0mm targets the Deep Dermis Layer, stimulating collagen production, effectively improving fine lines and wrinkles.
At the deepest level of 4.5mm, HIFU targets the Superficial Muscular Aponeurotic System also known as the SMAS layer. HIFU applied to the SMAS layer achieves effective face lifting effects and skin tightening.
HIFU is a safe treatment method as the ultrasound energy targets only the tissue that is present below the surface of your skin. This way, patients can be rest assured that HIFU will not cause any damage to the upper layers of their skin.
