What is the HIFU treatment?
HIFU treatment is a modern method based on the action of ultrasound. The name itself is an acronym for high intensity focused ultrasound, which can be translated as a focused beam of high intensity sound waves. Here, ultrasound is emitted by a special device and reaches a great depth of tissue, all the way to the SMAS, or musculo-fascial layer, stimulating certain changes, including shortening of collagen fibers, as well as stimulating fibroblasts to stimulate proteins – elastin and the aforementioned collagen. All this makes it possible to achieve not only clearly visible, but also, extremely importantly, natural-looking facial rejuvenation results. HIFU This is an excellent choice for people who do not want to undergo invasive procedures, but still want to look fresh and youthful, in addition without betraying that they have used the help of an aesthetic medicine specialist.
What does a HIFU facelift look like?
The HIFU procedure itself, from the patient’s point of view, is not a complicated procedure. During its course, the specialist moves the head of a special device over the area of the face, possibly the neck and décolleté. The procedure is not painful, you may only feel more or less intense heat – as tissues are heated up to 65-70℃. Performed at our clinic, the Ultraskin II Absolute treatment can last from 15 to 60 minutes, depending on the area selected. It usually does not need to be repeated, although in the case of extremely flaccid tissue, one may choose to repeat the procedure after 6 months.
What problems does the HIFU treatment solve?
