HIFU – For Skin Laxity and Wrinkles

Everyone desires flawless skin that is soft and radiant. When your skin is in its best form, you will definitely feel and look great, but when it starts aging and showing signs of laxity, you often find yourself looking older than you actually are. Neck and hands are places that are the first to age. Addressing this as early as possible helps to retain your youthfulness. HIFU treatment is a new technology in the field of non surgical jawline and neck firming, and due to its fast and proven success, it has garnered the attention of millions of women and men all over the world.

What Is HIFU?

High Intensity Focused Ultrasound 

This non-surgical and non-invasive face-lifting technology works by stimulating your body’s natural regenerative process by using highly sophisticated micro-focused ultrasound energy to rejuvenate the three critical levels of your skin’s infrastructure, with no patient downtime. 

Powerful, micro-focused high intensity ultrasound waves are used to lift not just the skin, but also the deep muscle layers underneath. HIFU tightens and lifts the skin on the neck, under the chin and jawline, the brow and around the eyes. HIFU can be used on any part of the body, and so its benefits are not just limited to the face and neck area. It also treats fine lines and wrinkles, on the décolletage and body. Furthermore, this procedure is painless, safe, and suitable for all skin types.

Procedure

After cleansing the skin, ultrasound gel is applied to the treatment areas. This enables ultrasound waves to transfer through the skin. Each ultrasound head, that delivers precise depths of ultrasound, is passed over each specific area gliding through the gel on the skin.

As the procedure involves minimal discomfort as there is no need for a local anesthetic. The HIFU treatment is a one-time treatment that takes approximately 45 minutes to complete. You can return to your normal activities immediately after the treatment. The results are noticeable immediately, and the results will continue to improve over time.

Four Side Effects Of HIFU

Though the risks of HIFU treatment are minimal, there are some risks that you should be aware of before proceeding with the treatment. It’s important to be informed about your options and to only move forward with a treatment option if you understand the risks and benefits associated with that treatment. Here are some of the potential side effects of HIFU treatment:

1. Redness:

Just like every other treatment for cosmetic purposes, the HIFU treatment can cause redness in the area that’s being treated. This is due to the heat that’s generated in the treatment. This redness usually disappears within a few hours of the treatment and is easily covered with mineral makeup if necessary

2. Swelling:

The HIFU treatment can cause some swelling in the area that’s being treated. This swelling usually goes away within a few hours after the treatment and can be treated with cooling cares to reduce the swelling.

3. Bruising:

Just like any other treatment option, bruising is a possible side effect of the HIFU treatment. Bruising can be caused by a variety of factors, but if you experience any bruising after the treatment, you can treat it with over-the-counter creams or lotions.

4. Numbness:

In rare cases, a temporary numbness can occur in the area that’s being treated. This is due to the heat that’s generated and how it affects the sensory nerve endings in the area. This numbness is temporary and disappears within a few hours of the treatment.

The bottom line is that HIFU treatment is a viable treatment option for those who want to reduce the appearance of aging due to laxity in their skin. If you’re interested in the treatment, it’s important to know that it’s a completely painless procedure, that’s safe for all skin types and is performed by a health professional.
