Today, in parallel with the development of technology, non-surgical skin rejuvenation and tightening procedures can be performed with different devices. One of the newest methods in this field is the High Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) system.
For what purposes is High Intensity Focused Ultrasound System used?
This system
– It recovers the facial oval and reduces sagging on the face.
– It reduces jowl sagging.
– It lifts the eyebrows.
– It provides tightening and reduction in fine wrinkles throughout the skin.
– It reduces nasolabial grooves descending from the edge of the nose to the edges of the mouth.
– Narrows the pores.
– It tightens the neck and décolleté.
How Does High Intensity Focused Ultrasound System Show Its Effect?
In the High Intensity Focused Ultrasound method, the ultrasound wave is focused in the tissue in dots. The vibration of molecules in the target area increases. Heat energy arises with friction. Therefore, it causes coagulation in the fascia (SMAS), the fibrous structure above the muscle, and in the deep dermis layer in a controlled manner. Intensive collagen activation develops in these areas, which are perceived as scar tissue by the body. Therefore, skin tightening and rejuvenation occurs.
When Does High Intensity Focused Ultrasound System Show Its Effect?
High Intensity Focused Ultrasound system starts to show its effect after 1 month. However, the clearer effect is observed from the 3rd month.
How Many Sessions Should High Intensity Focused Ultrasound System Be Performed?
A single session of High Intensity Focused Ultrasound system is usually sufficient. However, in skin with a lot of sagging, a second session may be needed after 6 months.
How Long Does the Effect of High Intensity Focused Ultrasound System Last?
The effect of the High Intensity Focused Ultrasound system lasts approximately 1-1.5 years.
How Long Does High Intensity Focused Ultrasound System Application Take?
The application takes an average of 40-45 minutes.
Is High Intensity Focused Ultrasound System Application Painful?
Pain is less in second generation High Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) systems. A painkiller can be taken if necessary.
Can I return to social life immediately after the High Intensity Focused Ultrasound procedure?
Since there is no damage on the upper surface of the skin after the application, the person can return to social life immediately.
