Hifu Skin Tightening
HIFU (High Intensity Focused Ultrasound) uses ultrasound waves to create a wound at a dermal level without affecting the top few layers of skin. This advanced treatment works to lift, tighten and knock years off the complexion, without the need for invasive surgery.
7D HIFU is a breakthrough, non-invasive procedure with no downtime for lifting and tightening sagging skin of the brows, cheeks, lower face (jowls), jawline and neck, and almost every other part of the body. It uses ultrasound waves to create a wound at a dermal level without affecting the top few layers of skin. It is the only treatment in the market that reaches the SMAS layer (muscle).
Results
HIFU works to tighten the same muscles that are tightened during an actual facelift. HIFU increases elasticity of skin, sagging of skin, and smooths the skin texture. There is an initial tightening of the skin which gives you an immediate refreshed look with firmer and lifted skin texture. Once the collagen induction process has begun and has had a chance to kick in (4-6 weeks post treatment) a dramatic visible improvement in facial contouring and visible reduction in fine lines and wrinkles will be evident. Results continuously improve up to 6 months down the track while your skin cells are repairing and regenerating.

Main differences
- They use different technologies to heat up the deep skin HIFU delivers more precise and more intense fractional ultrasound energy to the SMAS layer, while RF is based on a bulk heating strategy.
- HIFU goes much deeper into and beyond the dermis, being able to reach the SMAS layer (muscle). RF, on the other hand, will not go as deep as It focuses on epidermal layers and does not go beyond the deep dermis. This is why HIFU is much more effective than RF.
- HIFU is generally performed as a single treatment RF may require several sessions. The exact frequency of either of those treatments will depend on the type of device used and your skin conditions such as its current elasticity or your genetic heritage.
How to choose between HIFU and RF
As we age our face starts to exhibit a mix of sagging, wrinkling and sinking. Although each person’s aging style is always unique and should always be addressed individually, the following guide explains how different treatments may be more suitable for different types of issues.
