HIFU (High Intensity Focused Ultrasound) facial is a non-invasive cosmetic procedure that uses high-frequency sound waves to tighten and lift the skin on the face, neck and other areas of the body. The procedure stimulates collagen production, which can result in a more youthful and radiant appearance. HIFU facials can be used to address issues such as sagging skin, wrinkles, and fine lines. HIFU facials can take between 30 minutes to an hour, depending on the size of the treatment area, and results can be seen for up to six months or longer with continued treatment.
In short, a high-intensity focused ultrasound facial, or HIFU facial for short is a non-invasive treatment for facial aging. This procedure is part of a growing trend for anti-aging treatments that provide some of the benefits of a facelift without the need for surgery.
A HIFU facial uses ultrasound to create heat at a deep level in the skin. This heat damages targeted skin cells, causing the body to try to repair them. To do this, the body produces collagen to aid in cell regrowth. Collagen is a substance in the skin that gives it structure and elasticity.
