The skin will be cleansed and lightly exfoliated. The HIFU handpiece is placed on the skin and held in one area at a time. A slight vibration and warmth can then be felt whilst the energy penetrates the skin, before the handpiece is then moved to the next area of treatment. Focused ultrasound energy passes straight through the skin surface and stimulates collagen production in the deeper layers of the skin. This gives lift, improves support and tightens the skin. Typically just one treatment is required. The 3D HIFU Facelift can also be combined with other face sculpting treatments, such as dermal fillers, for enhanced results.
