High-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) is a device that emits ultrasonic waves when used above the skin heats up the collagen under your skin & helps to lift and induce collagen remodeling. It’s a completely safe procedure, however, it takes at least 2-6 months to see a complete result of hifu treatments. At Akarshan Skin and Hair Clinic, our doctors will evaluate you first as all people are not suitable for HIFU treatments. It takes 40 mins to 1 hour for a complete procedure and HIFU is the most loved noninvasive treatment of face lifting and collagen remodeling. Some more information about the noninvasive skin lifting technique:
Q. How does it work?
=> HIFU uses ultrasound waves that heat up the collagen and creates thermal damage in the deeper layer of the skin. The damages are repaired by our normal healing mechanism and collagen gets remodeled and gives a more youthful and lifted look.
It removes the facial fats and sharpens the jaw line too. It helps to tighten the skin in the neck, and cheeks, and smooth wrinkles on the face neck chest. HIFU targets specific areas for contouring and lifting effects.
Q. Why HIFU?
- No downtime
- Slight swelling can last for 2 to 3 days or just for an hour
- Immediate effect of tightening of the skin after treatment. Optimal results can be seen within 12 weeks while the collagen-building process continues.
- Suitable for all skin types
- No anesthesia required
- Sensation felt throughout the treatment feels like a tiny amount of energy being deposited. Comfort level varies from person to person.
Q. What about the results?
=> It takes 12 weeks to 6 months for the results to fully appear. Once done it’s advised only to repeat it once a year.
Q. What age can HIFU be done?
=> Usually it differs from person to person however one in their 30s to 40s can start hifu to prevent skin sagging.
Q. Can Hifu lift the face?
=> If going through the needles and pain is ok then a thread lift is the best procedure for a facelift with immediate results. Yes, hifu helps in slight lifting of the face but the results are gradual as it’s a noninvasive treatment.
