Generally, skin-firming results are noticeable after the treatment but results will continue to be seen over the next three months after the treatment. The full effects are noticeable after six months when the new collagen has built up in the skin. Here are a few points worth noting:
1) A single session of HIFU can last between 45 minutes and 1.5 hours.
This, however, depends on the size and area of treatment and each patient's needs.
2) For older patients with greater laxity we recommend 2/3 treatments 6/8 weeks apart. Those after age prevention 1 treatment yearly is a perfect plan.
3) Aftercare is also important for successful results from HIFU treatments. Again, following your skin therapists advice regarding lifestyle and skincare habits can ensure you get the best possible outcome from your HIFU treatment. Sun Epxsore is the biggest risk! We have promoted new collagen we need to protect it from the sun. HATS SUNSCREEN are imperative the weeks following treatment.
HIFU treatments can last up to two years. Once you have achieved the result you are wanting, there is no need for ongoing top ups.
.This is why HIFU is such a popular treatment
• Results are long-lasting
• No incisions or injections necessary
• Minimal downtime and discomfort
The effects of a single HIFU session can be seen almost immediately, but optimal results may take months due to collagen production. Plus, as your body naturally produces new collagen over time, your results will look even better.
When it comes to skin firming, HIFU is amazing, but who makes for a good candidate?
When deciding if HIFU is right for you, there are a few things to remember.
First, HIFU works best on people with mild to moderate skin laxity. If you have more severe sagging or wrinkles, a surgical procedure such as a facelift or threads may better suit your needs. Also, the ideal candidate should be in good health and have realistic expectations of the results they will achieve from this procedure. HIFU can produce impressive results but can't eliminate wrinkles or sagging skin.
Overall, if you have mild to moderate sagging or wrinkles and want an effective way to rejuvenate your skin without surgery, then HIFU may be just what you need.
