High Intensity Focused Ultrasound

The Non-Surgical Age-Reversal Revolution

The SMAS (Superficial Muscular Aponeurotic System) the structural foundation of our face begins to lose its elasticity as we age, leading to sagging and jowls. HIFU is the only non-invasive technology which by delivering focused ultrasound waves that can reach this deep tissue layer gives a more lifted, firmer and youthful appearance. It creates thermal coagulation points that are meant to increase the working of the body’s natural repair mechanism and that too without a single incision.

Precision Contouring: Face, Neck, and Body

It works not just on sagging but can work to sharpen the Jawline, lift the Malar (Cheek) Fat Pads, and reduce the appearance of a Double Chin thereby making it a powerful tool for sculpting of the face. It is also highly effective for improving the neck lesions like “Turkey Neck” and “necklace lines”. HIFU can also be used for abdominal, arm and thigh skin tightening, particularly after weight loss or pregnancy. It is a modality gaining popularity at DermaSpace for giving lift to various body parts.

The Science of Neocollagenesis

A subtle “instant lift” is seen as the ultrasound energy causes an immediate contraction of collagen fibers. But its magic is in its long-term impact. As your body continues to produce new  and organised collagen fibres (Neocollagenosis) over the next 3-6 months, the real transformation is seen. This biological “rebuilding” makes your skin thicker and more resilient from the inside out, providing results that cannot be achieved with topical creams.

The Dermaspace Advantage: Customized Depth Settings

Not all HIFU treatments are equal. Our advanced HIFU device allows us to switch between depths (1.5mm, 3.0mm, and 4.5mm) to ensure we are treating the correct layer for your specific anatomy as the skin thickness varies across different parts of the face. This helps us to ensure that we are protecting the underlying nerves and bone while providing maximum lifting. This makes the procedure significantly more comfortable than older generations of ultrasound machines.

Minimal Prep, Maximum Convenience

HIFU is the ultimate “lunchtime procedure”. With no pre-treatment preparation required and minimal to no downtime, this is the perfect discreet solution for those who want to look younger without anyone knowing they “had work done.” Some people may feel a slight ache deep inside indicating that the skin has started to produce new collagen, but there is no visible peeling, bruising or redness.

Frequently asked question

Your Questions answered with expert care

How is HIFU different from a surgical facelift?
HIFU is a non-invasive, no incision, no anaesthesia and no recovery time procedure. It naturally tightens the skin from within by stimulating collagen, while not cutting away the skin like in surgery, offering a more subtle and refreshed look.
When will I see the results?
Collagen contraction may give an instant lifting effect but optimum results will be seen between 3 to 6 months as your body builds new collagen fibers. Some people may require a repeat session after 3 months for better lifting.
Is HIFU painful?
Just a little discomfort felt as tingling or a dull ache. We have the option to adjust the energy levels to match your comfort threshold.
How long do the results last?
About 1 to 1.5 years and since your skin continues to age naturally, a maintenance session once a year is recommended to preserve the lifted effect.
Are there any side effects?
Nothing major. Minor side effects may include temporary redness, slight swelling, or a tingling sensation for a few days that indicate that the deep tissue is healing and tightening.
