The Benefits Of HIFU Treatments For Your Skin

It’s a simple fact that as we grow older our bodies change, and usually not in ways that we would prefer. Unfortunately, the first place we notice these changes is on our faces! We look in the mirror one day and notice new lines under our eyes, or that our cheeks have grown a bit hollow. The cells that make up our skin’s tissues have begun to break down, and the body has ceased to signal for more of them to be produced, so we slowly but surely look older with each passing day.

While there is no way to put a complete stop to this natural process, there is a way to game nature in our favour for a number of years, and retain a younger-looking face for much longer than we would if we did nothing. The secret to this literal face-saving is called HIFU treatment, a painless, non-invasive walk-in procedure that is arguably the most gentle alternative to cosmetic surgery there is. HIFU guarantees great results, rejuvenating and refreshing the appearance of your face’s skin!

The acronym HIFU stands for High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound, a highly advanced cosmetic technology that can tighten and lift the skin to produce anti-ageing effects. The use of HIFU is highly recommended for people who are facing the undesirable ravages of ageing like a loss of plumpness and firmness, sagging and dull skin, and of course wrinkles and those dreaded fine lines. The treatment provides long-lasting results that can even be noticeable after just one session! Undergoing multiple HIFU treatments can help a person achieve an amazing impact on their self-confidence and overall appearance!

So, how exactly does HIFU work? HIFU utilizes a specialized high-tech ultrasound device that can create heat within the skin at a deep level that lightly damages the targeted skin cells in order to stimulate them, thus encouraging the body’s natural healing response to kick in. That causes fresh new collagen, the natural body substance that keeps our skin healthy looking, to be produced in greater amounts. This results in the regrowth of new cells that enhance the skin’s elasticity and structure.

The following are some of the benefits that HIFU can provide:

Reduces Wrinkles – HIFU is used to stimulate the production of new collagen that erases and plumps up fine lines and wrinkles, greatly reducing their appearance while preventing new lines from forming.

Defines The Cheekbones and Jawline –  HIFU’s tightening effects provide the cheekbones and jawline with enhanced definition that will refresh the face’s appearance and create a youthening effect.

Tightens Sagging Skin – HIFU produces a tightening and lifting effect by promoting cell regrowth and refreshing the skin’s elasticity. The positive results are especially noticeable on areas of frequent concern like the eyes, brows, cheeks, jowls, and chin.

Effective, Non-invasive, And Safe – A HIFU treatment doesn’t require any anaesthesia, incisions, and stitches, it is a completely non-invasive procedure. There is no lengthy recovery time afterwards, you simply go home! The results, however, are just as effective as a surgical facelift, making it the logical alternative for maintaining youthful-looking skin!

If that sounds good to you, then make yourself an appointment! It will begin with a consultation with your skin specialist to determine what exactly you want to achieve and if HIFU is the right course of treatment for you. Your skin specialist will then tell you what you need to do to prepare, which isn’t really much beyond getting a good sleep the night before! The treatment is painless, but you may feel a small amount of heat and pressure during it, followed by mild redness and swelling afterwards that only lasts a couple of days. Follow the simple aftercare advice to maximise your results!

Youthful skin can be yours again with HIFU!
