This is our most common question!
So many clients are looking for a way to improve the jowl without going down more invasive treatment routes.
HIFU is a great alternative and although you dont get the full result instantly on some occasions the improvement is defiantly worth the wait and this treatment is a firm favourite with our regular clients. Treatments can be taken yearly to maintain a tight appearance and improve overall skin elasticity.
The HIFU facelift treatment works by sending highly focused acoustic energy below the skin’s surface to cause cellular friction within the molecules, resulting in precise, target-point heating. The friction between these molecules produces heat and thermal injury at a focal point within the skin tissue to create thermal coagulation zones at leaving the skin’s surface unaffected.
Delivering this focused energy to the dermal tissue causes immediate trauma to the treatment zone which then promotes wound healing, immediate contraction and collagen stimulation. The healing process works over approximately 180 days, stimulating long-term tissue repair leading to further lifting and tightening.
The SMAS layer (superficial muscular aponeurotic system) is also targeted during the treatment and is composed of collagen and elastin fibres, similar to those of the dermal tissue, and when treated, gives a long-lasting tightening effect.
Book this treatment if you are looking for a non surgical option to lift, tighten and improve skin barrier in areas such as brow, crows feet, jowl and neck. For best results a full or half face treatment is recommended.
