HIFU
A HIFU (High Intensity Focused Ultrasound) treatment is an endorsed choice for face and body areas that need lifting and tightening results, when resorting to surgery is desired to be delayed.
The HIFU technology uses ultrasound waves to penetrate the epidermis (without impacting it), reach the deeper skin layers, and warm them to the level which they get activated at, promoting a tissue regeneration and the production of valuable collagen.
It is in essence a non-surgical, bloodless approach with natural looking outcomes that last, and that is why HIFU technology inaugurates a new era of astonishing – aesthetically- results.
The effects of just one HIFU treatment may last up to two years.
You will notice a change in your skin’s appearance right after the treatment. However, you will be able to appreciate the full result in about 3 to 4 months’ time, the approximate period that is necessary for the production of new collagen and your skin’s tightening and lifting process.
Besides the aesthetic advantageous effects, the therapy is well tolerated, and the patient can return to his/her normal activities right after the procedure. Medical research reports that some cases of light instant pain and cases of a light burning effect have been made known.
As a last note, we would like you to know that HIFU treatment results cannot be compared to the results that can be achieved through surgical lifting. Nevertheless, a HIFU treatment is an excellent choice for cases of light to moderate skin loosening as a natural and satisfactory outcome can be easily achieved without the hassle of a surgical procedure.
