FRACTIONAL HIGH-INTENSITY FOCUSED ULTRASOUND
Sygmalift /
High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound, commonly known as HIFU, is a popular treatment method that has gained significant attention in recent years. It is a non-invasive procedure designed to lift and tighten the skin, reduce fine lines and wrinkles, and stimulate collagen production. And, before deciding to undergo HIFU treatment, it is important to be well informed to ensure safety and maximize the benefits of the service.
What is HIFU, its benefits,
and who is suitable for this treatment?
Currently, skin tightening has become increasingly important and popular for anti-aging, thanks to the many technologies and innovations available that allow us to rejuvenate our skin without surgery or pain, and in a relatively short amount of time. One of these technologies is HIFU (High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound), which provides an effective solution for tightening sagging skin, reducing wrinkles, and contouring the face, making it an excellent choice for those who are afraid of needles and discomfort but still wish to lift and firm their facial appearance.
HIFU is an innovation for tightening sagging skin and reducing wrinkles. It offers an alternative for individuals who want to lift their faces but are concerned about the use of needles and surgery. Before undergoing this treatment, it’s essential to research and understand the details of the service.
What is HIFU?
HIFU (High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound) is a non-surgical treatment designed to lift and tighten the skin. It utilizes high-intensity ultrasound energy to generate heat at deeper layers of the skin, stimulating collagen production. This process helps improve skin smoothness and firmness.
How Does HIFU Work?
HIFU (High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound) operates by delivering high-intensity sound waves to deeper layers of the skin without damaging the outer layer. The working principles are as follows:
- Energy Delivery: The HIFU device emits high-frequency ultrasound waves to the targeted area. These sound waves are focused on specific points, generating heat in the targeted tissue, with temperatures reaching up to 65-70 degrees Celsius.
- Collagen Stimulation: The heat generated by the sound waves stimulates the body to produce new collagen and elastin, leading to firmer and more elastic skin. This process contributes to a tighter and smoother appearance over time.
- Non-Surgical Procedure: HIFU is a non-invasive treatment, meaning no incisions or anesthesia are required. Patients can resume their daily activities immediately after the procedure.
- Gradual Results: The results of HIFU are not immediately visible. Typically, noticeable changes start to appear 2-3 months post-treatment as the body continues to produce collagen.
- Treatment Areas: HIFU is commonly used for tightening the skin on the face, neck, and décolletage, but it can also be applied to other areas of the body needing firming.
Moreover, the “Ultrasound” energy from HIFU can emit frequencies up to 1,000 times per second, making the treatment comfortable and safe for the skin while promoting increased collagen and elastin production. Results may be visible from the first session, depending on individual skin conditions.
Who is suitable for HIFU treatment?
HIFU is primarily designed to rejuvenate, tighten, and reshape the face, making it suitable for individuals dealing with issues such as double chins and excess fat in the under-chin area and face. HIFU effectively reduces sagging skin, helping to tighten the jawline and stimulate collagen production in the skin. It is also appropriate for individuals aged 20 and above.
However, HIFU is not recommended for pregnant women or patients with certain medical conditions. It’s essential to consult a qualified physician for an accurate assessment before undergoing the treatment.
Is HIFU dangerous and what side effects should be noted?
After undergoing HIFU, some individuals may experience side effects such as redness, rashes on the skin, facial soreness or tightness, a tingling sensation during treatment, swelling, numbness, or bruising. However, these symptoms typically resolve on their own, and the duration depends on the individual’s self-care post-treatment.
HIFU is a skin tightening technology that utilizes high-intensity focused ultrasound energy directed into the skin layers, making it suitable for those with sagging skin, a lack of firmness, or excess fat accumulation in the face or other areas. It is considered a safe and non-harmful procedure if conducted in a reputable clinic with a qualified medical team, modern medical equipment, and authentic, properly imported machines.
