What is HIFU Treatment?

HIFU is short for High intensity focused ultrasound. It is also known as HIFU facial or non-surgical facelift. The treatment involves the application of ultrasound waves to deeper layers of skin that promotes connective tissue growth.HIFU uses ultrasound waves (at high intensity) to stimulate growth of collagen and elastin. Collagen and elastin are the connective tissues of the body. This means that they act like the cement in case your skin was like a brick structure and they hold the skin together. Sagging of skin with age occurs due to the loss of connective tissue. Regeneration of connective tissue helps with tightening the surrounding structures and pulls up the sagging skin. This leads to the dramatic change that is visible after even a single session.

What is the Procedure for HIFU treatment at La Derma?

  • First Our cosmetic Dermatologist will evaluate youthoroughly.
  • Then the technician will clean your face where the ultrasound energy is to be passed.
  • After the cleaning is completed, ultrasound gel is applied on to the area chosen for treatment so as to reduce friction between the probe and your skin.
  • By using the available options in the ultrasound machine our cosmetic dermatologist selects the required settings in the ultrasonic viewer.
  • The probe is placed on the skin where it starts to emit ultrasonic energy which causes the skin to heat up and new collagen is produced as a result.
  • The treatment lasts for about 60 to 90 mins where energy is given out in form of short ‘bursts’ rather than a continuous stream so as to avoid skin damage and increase safety.
  • After the treatment is completed the probe is removed.
