HIFU

HIFU stands for high-intensity focused ultrasound. We use HIFU to lift the face and neck non-surgically. It is a relatively new skin tightening treatment that is very effective, non-invasive, and pain-free skin tightening treatment. This treatment incorporates an ultrasound technique to cure loosened skin.

HIFU was FDA-approved to lift brows in 2014. The procedure can be used for skin tightening, facial rejuvenation, contouring, etc. 

​

HIFU covers the treatment area 10 lines at one time (treatment width of 10 mm). Ultherapy covers only one line at a time (1 mm width), which makes it more difficult to cover the treatment area uniformly to get a good coverage and therefore obtain good results.

​

Once the treatment is complete, both methods produce results. The skin looks more supple, lifted, and brighter.
