HIFU MELBOURNE - Commonly Asked Questions!
Written by Jessica Callahan - Clinic Director at HUSH CLINICAL - South Yarra. HIFU Specialist MELBOURNE
What is the best age to get HIFU?
The best age to get HIFU for the face and neck would be in your late thirties! Unless you have a double chin or undefined jawline you want to correct. HIFU can be used to dissolve fat in an area. And with a skilled eye and experienced HIFU operator we can sculpt the face or body and prevent Jowl formation and reduce double chins.
Is HIFU Better than Botox?
They are two completely different things! Botox relaxes muscles and can soften static wrinkles, HIFU can smooth wrinkles and plump them by building collagen but its not going to soften them as much as Botox. But be aware, over use of Botox can cause muscles to sag, exactly what we treat with HIFU. So don't over do Botox or muscle relaxant injections. Especially on the masseter area.
Can HIFU make your skin saggy?
HIFU lifts skin and muscle. I guess if you see an untrained person on a poor quality machine there is a chance that they dissolve fat with improper settings , this could lead to being worse off. But the pain would be high on the face, so I would hope an operator would not make that mistake.
How long do results last from HIFU?
Results from HIFU take around 3-6 months to develop. Like most advanced beauty treatments. Most patients will see a 10% plus improvement on the day but this is a long term treatment. The results you get will last around another 6-12 months.
Is one session of HIFU enough?
This totally depends on the case and what other treatments the client is having. Most clients 50 plus have 2-3 treatments spaced over 4 months initially. Then maintenance treatments every 6-12 months.
Is HIFU worth the money?
HIFU is one of the only treatments able to tighten the muscles and reach that layer in the skin. It gives outstanding results in 90% of patients.
