HIFU is High Intensity Focused Ultrasound. It is a non-surgical, non-invasive procedure that offsets the effects of aging. The treatment uses focused ultrasound to create heat at a deep level in the skin. The focused, controled heat damages the targeted skin cells precisely in such a way that causes the body to produce collagen in those skin cells. Collagen is a natural protein that the body produces to provide structure and elasticity to the skin. The HIFU treatment stimulates and aids the body in cell regrowth which means that increased collagen results in tighter, firmer skin, the results are seen as lessening wrinkles.

An added benefit to the HIFU treatment is that the beams are focused on specific tissue cells below the skin's surface, resulting in no damage to the upper layers of the skin. Since this is a non-invasive, non-surgical treatment, HIFU sessions do not require exessive pre-procedure preparation and an added benefit is there is no post session recovery time! What this means is people can get on with their daily routines as soon as the session is completed.

Positive effects of the skin friendly HIFU process can last up to two years! Depending on the outcome the client wants to achieve, some people may require between one and six sessions. Also to note, clients with photo-damaged skin or a high degree of loose skin may need several sessions before seeing results. In general, the procedure works best on people older than 30 with mild-to-moderate skin laxity.

Since HIFU stimulates the body to do "the work of beautifying" some results will be seen immediately and then further progress to fully evident between 3 to 6 months later.

The greart news is that both men and women can benefit from HIFU.

The HIFU process causes eyes to look more open, brows lifted, fine lines softened, the jawline becomes more defined, sagging skin is tightened, pores are reduced, and more!
