What is HIFU?
High Frequency Focused Ultrasound, that is, High Intensity Focused Ultrasound.

Is it an invasive method?
The results are similar to surgical ones, but there is no tissue invasion. It is the only non-invasive treatment that can specifically target areas below the skin which until now were only addressed through surgery, which is why this method is revolutionary and unique.

What are the indications for the use of HIFU?

  • Facial rejuvenation.
  • Tightening of the facial oval.
  • Decreased sagging skin.
  • Generation of new collagen.
  • Contraction of pre-existing collagen.
  • Regeneration of elastic fibers.
  • Elimination of wrinkles and expression lines (wrinkle attenuation).
  • Body tension.

What are the application areas?

1. FACIAL: Applications are in areas of the neck, submental region, and
dewlap.

2. BODY: Indicated to reduce subcutaneous adiposity at the level of
abdomen, flanks, inner thigh, knee, arms, buttocks.

3. Indicated for post-surgical patients of abdominoplasties and liposuction.

 

Frequent questions

1What is the main advantage of HIFU?
The main advantage of Hifu consists in the FOCUSING of the ultrasonic beam. This allows the ultrasonic wave to pass through the skin without affecting it, since being out of focus it releases almost no energy. Instead, upon reaching the focal point, a large amount of energy is released, producing the remarkable effects described above. It also has the advantage that it is ambulatory and does not require a period of inactivity from work, the patient can immediately return to their usual tasks.
2How long does a session last?
The session lasts between 40 minutes and 2 hours.
3Who is a good candidate for the facial procedure?
– Patients who present mild to moderate skin sagging, 35 to 55 years old. – Patients with greater flaccidity, but who do not want or cannot undergo surgery. – Patients with sagging cheeks, mandibular region and neck, as well as drooping of the tail of the eyebrow.
4What are the common effects after facial treatment?
There may be temporary swelling or erythema that resolves within a few hours. As well as slight sensitivity to touch for a few weeks after the procedure. You will see immediate contraction, which will result in a natural lifting and over time you will see your skin toned.
5What are the common effects after body treatment?
Heat is perceived without manifestation at the epidermis level, as well as slight inflammation of the treated area.
6Is the procedure painful?
The procedure depends on the sensitivity of the patient. A slight discomfort is felt without the need to resort to the application of local anesthetics. There may be discomfort that subsides in a few hours without leaving any sequelae.
7Is there recovery time after the procedure?
No. You can return to your normal activity immediately after the procedure, including work and exercise. Be careful with sun exposure.
8How long does it take to notice facial results?
After 30 days, results are already noticeable. It is after 4-6 months when the total result of the treatment is seen in the form of general firming of the treated areas thanks to the increase in collagen and elastin at the level of the dermis.
9How many treatments will I need to undergo?
The number of treatments will be directly proportional to the degree of skin sagging, with improvements having been observed after the first session. It is common to perform a single treatment to obtain optimal results.
10How long do facial results last?
On a facial level, the effects last between approximately 12 and 18 months.
11What does HIFU MATRIX 3D mean?
Conventional Hifu equipment makes a line of points that are focused at various depths inside the tissues, that is, it is a two-dimensional application. The Matrix HIFU 3D produces a grid or matrix of dots in two dimensions: width and length. If we add the third dimension represented by the action at different depths, we obtain the Three-Dimensional or 3D mode.
