High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound-(HIFU) Therapy

High-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) is a relatively new cosmetic treatment for skin tightening that is considered a noninvasive and painless replacement for face lifts. It uses ultrasound energy to encourage the production of collagen. The increase in collagen results in tighter and firmer skin with fewer wrinkles. 

Since the high frequency ultrasound beams are focused on a specific tissue site below the skin’s surface, there’s no damage to the upper layers of the skin and adjacent tissue.

HIFU is an advanced, long-lasting treatment that penetrates deeper and lasts longer than fractional laser or radio-frequency technology.
