HIFU is a non-invasive medical aesthetic machine that has become very popular in recent years. It can permanently lift the contours, and at the same time has significant anti-aging, face slimming, improvement of sagging apple muscles, and double chin reduction.
The following is an introduction to what a HIFU machine is, as well as the principles, precautions and how long the HIFU treatment effect lasts. Through this article, you can briefly understand the HIFU facial skin tightening machine.
What is HIFU?
The principle of HIFU is to use highly concentrated ultrasound to accurately focus on the treatment area for segmented fixed-point heating, instantly heating the temperature of the treated tissue to 60°C to 70°C, and then bringing the heat to the dermis aponeurosis. Since the aponeurosis is the main part supporting the face, activating the collagen in the aponeurosis can tighten the skin, tighten the muscles and skin, and thereby reorganize the supporting capacity of the underlying tissue to achieve the effect of reducing wrinkles, tightening, and enhancing contours.
HIFU is a non-invasive firming procedure. Its principle is ultrasound, which focuses energy to a point size of 1 mm, directly acting on the fat layer and SMAS layer to contract, tighten the skin in the affected area, and stimulate collagen production.
HIFU ultrasonic knife can effectively reduce wrinkles, tighten sagging skin on the face and body, and achieve multiple effects in skin care, wrinkle removal, and body shaping.
Advantages of HIFU Machine.
High Intensity Focused Itrasound (HIFU) is used. High-intensity focused energy HIFU penetrates the skin layer up to 3~4.5mm, directly acts on the superficial muscular aponeurosis system (SMAS) layer, and then forms a 1mm coagulation point in the focal area. High energy forms thermal coagulation, which can effectively lift sagging skin.
It provides faster energy injection, speeding up treatment. Greatly shortening treatment time, this machine is used to lift the contours of the face and other parts of the body, tighten and lift the skin, and reduce local fat for facial rejuvenation. HIFU is also suitable for body contouring, such as stubborn fat areas such as the abdomen and buttocks.
How does HIFU work?
The high-energy focused ultrasound energy of 55~60℃ is transmitted to the target skin tissue layer to produce a thermal coagulation point, which is then repaired through the surrounding active cells to form new collagen and elastic fibers, making the skin plump and firm.
HIFU can achieve the effect of surgical facelift in a non-invasive way, tightening and lifting the contour. The best effect is achieved through the combined treatment of probes at different levels of depth, tightening and lifting the contour while stimulating a large amount of collagen regeneration!
1.5mm: Reconstruct fibroblasts, promote the increase of collagen content, and improve facial pores and skin color.
3.0mm: Stimulate collagen regeneration and reconstruction of elastic fiber cells.
4.5mm: Lift and tighten to reduce wrinkles and improve the lifting effect on subcutaneous fat and SMAS.
13mm: Specifically targeted at the site, deep into the subcutaneous fat, deep fat reduction and firming.
What is the function of HIFU machine?
Instant lifting.
The effect is visible immediately after the operation, and the cheeks are instantly lifted. The best effect of HIFU treatment will reach its peak after 2-3 months. In the following period of time, you can gradually feel the skin being lifted, and the face will become smaller and tighter.
Tighten and slim the face.
HIFU treatment can lift the lines of the lower half of the face, narrow the face shape, and make it smaller.
Reduce nasolabial folds.
After HIFU treatment, the nasolabial folds became lighter, the originally sagging apple muscles were lifted, and the corners of the mouth also turned up.
Tighten the double chin.
The double chin that originally needed lipolysis surgery to tighten can now be treated with the HIFU machine to achieve very good results. The double chin that was difficult to eliminate is gone, and the edge of the jawline has become clearer, making you look ten years younger.
Body Shaping.
Through the body probe with a depth of 13mm, it can easily dissolve fat, firm and shape, and target arm fat, thigh cellulite, abdominal fat, and thick calves, with remarkable results.
HIFU VS Fotona 4d VS Thermage.
Thermage is radio frequency, and fotona4d can only reach the dermis, and the extreme temperature is lower than HIFU, so they are more of a tightening effect, while ultrasonic knife can have a significant lifting effect. People over 35 years old will gradually show symptoms of fascia aging, so it is far from enough to rely solely on tightening the dermis collagen layer when the fascia layer is loose. HIFU is the best choice for anti-aging and lifting.
HIFU machine is suitable for people.
- People who want to tighten their facial contours due to sagging and sagging;
- People who want to improve facial fine lines, neck lines and nasolabial folds;
- People who want to achieve anti-aging through non-surgical methods.
FAQs about HIFU.
Q: How many HIFU treatments are needed for one treatment?
A: The number of HIFU treatment lines depends on the treatment area and the specific needs of each customer. The doctor will then recommend the appropriate number of treatments based on the specific situation. The reference treatment lines are as follows: 1. About 300 for cheeks and chin; 2. About 300 for under the eyes and nasolabial folds; 3. About 600 for the entire face or upper arms; 4. About 1,000 for the entire face + neck or thighs.
Q: How effective is Hifu treatment?
A: The immediate effect after HIFU treatment is about 20% of the ideal effect. The skin will gradually tighten within 1-2 months after treatment, and the effect will be more obvious after 2-3 months. The effect can last for 5-6 months (the treatment effect varies from person to person). If you want to maintain the effect continuously, you can do the second treatment at least 3 months after the first treatment so that the fibroblasts can fully produce collagen. After that, you can do the treatment every 6 months to maintain the effect and prevent future skin sagging.
Q: How often should HIFU be performed?
A: HIFU is recommended to be performed once a year. The skin condition varies from person to person, and most people can maintain the condition for 12-18 months after one treatment.
Q: How long does it take to see the effects of HIFU treatment?
A: Most people can see 10~30% effect immediately after one treatment, and the effect gradually becomes noticeable. The best state is about 3 months.
Q: Will HIFU treatment be painful?
A: Because the HIFU machine is fast and the heat is more concentrated, the pain will be much less than the old version. You will feel a burning sensation in different parts of your body during the treatment, and a slight redness after the treatment, but it will gradually recover a few hours after the treatment. It is called a “lunch break” beauty treatment, and you can immediately return to your normal life after the treatment.
Q: After the injection treatment, can I continue with HIFU treatment?
A: Yes. However, it is recommended to wait 2 weeks after Botox injection and 1 month after filler.
Q: Can I put on makeup right after HIFU treatment?
A: It is recommended to put on makeup the day after treatment. However, you can wash your face, shower, and take a bath on the same day after treatment.
