High Intensity Focused Ultrasound<\/h2>[vc_column_text]When time and gravity take their toll on our faces, we’re left yearning for a more firm, smoother and supple face – and HIFU can offer just that<\/b><\/p>\n

HIFU means High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound, which has been dubbed the “<\/span>non-surgical facelift<\/b>“.<\/span><\/p>\n

Promising to turn back the collagen clock, HIFU helps your skin to regain its internal support – and you can have it yourself at\u00a0<\/span>Dr. Kamil Al Rustom Skin and Laser Centre in Dubai<\/b>.<\/span><\/p>\n

If you opt to undergo HIFU at the clinic, their team will explain how the treatment provides skin tightening from deep with the body’s tissue – 3 layers down! As a result, the treatment boosts new collagen production and collagen regeneration.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=””]<\/p>\n

\u00a0*Disclaimer: Individual results may vary from patient to patient based upon the circumstances and the patient\u2019s specific situation, as well as the time taken to see final results.<\/h6>\n

What is HIFU?<\/h3>[vc_column_text]High Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) is an\u00a0<\/span>FDA approved technology<\/b>, which promises to deliver remarkable results in\u00a0<\/span>skin-lifting\u00a0<\/b>applications… Particularly chin lifts, brow lifts and jawline redefinition.<\/span><\/p>\n

Working as a\u00a0<\/span>non-invasive face-lift<\/b>, it helps to tighten your skin, iron out your wrinkles and shrink your pores.<\/span><\/p>\n

HIFU also helps to improve overall skin tone, brightness and elasticity, which is great if you want a more defined jawline, and help to eliminate that double chin.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″]

How does HIFU work?<\/h3>[vc_column_text]The treatment works with a high intensity ultrasound energy, which is focused on your chosen treatment area. Emitted through a hand-held device, the high energy is transferred to the focal area, and provides only low energy to the surrounding regions.<\/span><\/p>\n

By using ultrasound in the spots where the energy is focused, the deeper layers of your skin are targeted – and it\u00a0<\/span>does not cause harm\u00a0<\/b>along the way, especially to the epidermis and dermis.<\/span><\/p>\n

The ultrasound causes vibrations amongst the tissue particles in the targeted area, which then generate a thermal energy that causes micro injury to the tissues.<\/span><\/p>\n

These thousands of tiny micro-injuries help to provoke\u00a0<\/span>collagen regeneration<\/b>\u00a0across three layers: the SMAS, sub-dermal and deep-dermal levels.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=”55px”][vc_separator][vc_empty_space height=”80px”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1\/2″]

Do HIFU treatments hurt?<\/h3>[vc_column_text]The only part of any HIFU treatment you undergo that may cause concern is not knowing what to expect. The treatment begins on your jawline with a low frequency for comfort, and then your therapist will increase the frequency depending on your pain threshold.<\/span><\/p>\n

The hand-held device placed on your skin shoots the ultrasound every second, and it feels very similar to tiny electrical pulses –\u00a0<\/span>a little prickly, tickly and with some warmth<\/b>.<\/span><\/p>\n

If you have concerns over any discomfort you may have during your HIFU treatment, you can request a topical pain relief to be applied before beginning.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″]

Is there any downtime with HIFU treatments?<\/h3>[vc_column_text]As HIFU is entirely a non-invasive treatment, it has\u00a0<\/span>little to no downtime<\/b>.<\/span><\/p>\n

However, the treatment(s) may cause redness, mild discomfort, pain or sensation of heat for\u00a0<\/span>a few seconds<\/b>. These effects are brief, and are usually resolved instantly.<\/span><\/p>\n

Pain relief medication can be taken, and generally redness subsides within an hour post-treatment. You will be able to return to your normal routine straight away, but you should refrain from sunbathing and reduce sub exposure in general.<\/span><\/p>\n

Some improvement from your HIFU treatment will be visible immediately, and your youthfulness should unfold over the coming weeks and months, leaving you with a\u00a0<\/span>contoured, smooth and radiant glow<\/b>.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=”80px”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”full-width”][vc_column]
