What is a HIFU facial?

HIFU stands for High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound, and is a premium, non-invasive treatment ideal for those looking to combat signs of ageing, such as sagging skin, fine lines, and wrinkles.

During a HIFU treatment, ultrasound energy is precisely directed at specific layers beneath the skin’s surface. This energy heats the tissues to promote collagen and elastin production, which helps promote a firmer, more youthful appearance.

Suitable for most skin types and tones, HIFU can be customised to address various concerns, from brow lifts to jawline definition, delivering spectacular and long-lasting results.

More Reasons To Choose HIFU

A HIFU face and neck lift treatment is one of our most popular options for lifting and tightening the skin. It typically lasts between 60 and 90 minutes, making it easy to fit into your busy schedule and allowing you to return to your daily activities immediately after the session.

This non-invasive treatment delivers noticeable results and provides a youthful glow that can last for months. With little to no downtime, a HIFU facial can be combined with RF microneedling as part of a customised treatment plan created by one of our Fiore Aesthetics skin specialists.

The Procedure

Prior To Treatment

Before your HIFU appointment, refrain from using retinoids, exfoliants, or strong skincare products for at least a week. Protect your skin from excessive sun exposure to reduce the risk of pigmentation changes. Inform your aesthetic practitioner about any medications you are taking, especially blood thinners or those affecting skin healing. Drink plenty of water in the days leading up to your treatment. Limit alcohol consumption for at least 24 hours before your appointment, as it can increase skin sensitivity, and if the treatment area includes facial hair, consider shaving it off before your appointment to ensure better results.

Treatment

During your HIFU treatment, the area to be treated will be cleansed to remove any makeup or impurities. A topical numbing cream may be applied to minimise discomfort during the procedure. The HIFU device will deliver focused ultrasound energy to the skin, during which you may feel a slight warming sensation. The procedure typically lasts between 60 and 90 minutes, depending on the area treated.

After Treatment

Your skin may be a little pink, but the downtime is minimal, usually subsiding within a few hours to days. Once your first HIFU treatment is completed, we will ask you to book your second treatment immediately. The results of the treatment can take up to 90 days to fully develop, so the full HIFU effects will only be visible after this period. Keep your skin well-hydrated by drinking plenty of water and using a gentle moisturiser

What To Expect

Before your HIFU session, one of our skilled specialists will conduct a thorough consultation to tailor the treatment to your unique needs and goals. During the procedure, you might experience a sensation of warmth or slight discomfort, but nothing too extreme. Afterward, you may notice some redness, but this usually fades within a few hours. Full HIFU effects will become visible approximately 3 months after treatment.

FAQs

How many HIFU treatments will I need?

A HIFU treatment typically requires two sessions spaced 4 weeks apart. Results may be noticeable after the initial treatment, but the full effects, including before and after improvements, will become visible within 90 days and continue to enhance as the body stimulates additional collagen production. Depending on individual skin concerns, some patients may need more than two HIFU sessions.

Regular maintenance treatments can help prolong the results and keep your skin looking its best. We recommend repeating your HIFU treatment every 6 – 12 months; however, the duration can vary depending on individual factors such as skin type, age, lifestyle, and how well you maintain your skin after treatment. Most patients find that twice a year is the most beneficial.

HIFU is most effective for people with early signs of ageing, such as mild to moderate sagging, as it can help lift and tighten the skin but may not be suitable for those with severe sagging. It is a non-invasive approach that tightens the skin, strengthens muscles, and provides subtle lifting of the jowls, chin, and overall skin plumping. Additionally, HIFU facials are a great option for those with good overall health, realistic expectations about the outcomes (since HIFU offers subtle but noticeable improvements, not drastic changes), and non-smokers (as smoking can impact healing and skin health). It is also ideal for individuals looking for a non-invasive alternative for lifting and tightening effects without surgery.

Most patients request treatment for only the jawline, as it is one of the first areas to show signs of ageing. However, we believe that treating the entire face yields better and longer-lasting results. You will still see improvements by treating only the jawline, but the effects may not be as pronounced, as the muscles above are left untreated.

The HIFU treatment will play a significant role in helping to lift the jowl area. You may find that a combination of treatments will yield the best results, but a HIFU lift is a great place to start!
