HIFU Skin Tightening Treatment In Hope Island
HIFU Skin Tightening
The medical community has widely recognised the remarkable efficacy of High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound (FU). This cutting-edge technology is particularly notable for its application in advanced facelift and body contouring procedures.
Various non-invasive facelift procedures are available to specifically address the outermost layers of the skin, commonly known as the superficial dermis.
HIFU is unique in its capability to target focal points at multiple depths beneath the surface, including the dermis, right down to the SMAS (superficial muscular aponeurotic system), which is the layer adjusted by surgeons during a traditional facelift.
High Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU), also referred to as ‘Ultrasound Facelift’ or ‘4D HIFU’ or ‘4D HIFU Body’, is rapidly becoming one of the most sought-after face and neck lifting treatments as well as body sculpting treatments in Ireland today.
Unlike surgery, a HIFU facelift is significantly safer and more affordable, which is why it is gaining increasing popularity. HIFU is a one-off therapy that yields firmer, tighter, lifted facial skin or a sculpted body.

What are the benefits of HIFU
The advantage of HIFU lies in its ability to provide immediate visible benefits, with optimal outcomes typically appearing around 20 days following treatment. Nevertheless, the timeframe for achieving optimal results may vary depending on the specific treatment area, ranging from three to six months post-treatment. The stimulating impact of HIFU encourages the production of fresh collagen, aiding in the preservation of your skin’s youthful radiance over an extended period.

How does HIFU work?
By utilising numerous concentrated ultrasound energy beams, the applicator can penetrate multiple skin layers. Each beam alone does not impact the skin or its underlying layers. Nevertheless, when these beams converge at a specific point, they create a focal point of thermal energy. This thermal energy causes the underlying muscle to contract and stimulates the regeneration of collagen. As a result, the face becomes firmer, and the visible signs of ageing are reduced.
HIFU FACE employs ultrasonic energy to reach deep beneath the skin and fat layers of the face, specifically targeting the connective tissue. This connective tissue serves as a sturdy and resilient layer that provides support to the neck and facial features. As individuals age, the connective tissues tend to lose their firmness, leading to sagging. By utilising High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound, loose connective tissue can be tightened effectively, resulting in a more lifted and firmer appearance in areas with sagging skin.
HOW MANY SESSIONS SHOULD I HAVE AND WHAT RESULTS SHOULD I EXPECT WITH HIFU FACE?
High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) presents the benefit of delivering prompt and noticeable results, with optimal improvements usually becoming apparent within a span of 20 days or, in some cases, ranging from three to six months. Through the stimulation of new collagen production, HIFU promotes the skin’s ability to maintain its natural youthful glow.
In contrast to certain non-invasive procedures that necessitate several sessions spread out over a period of months, HIFU typically involves just one treatment session. However, it is crucial to understand that the outcomes can vary from individual to individual. Depending on your response to the initial procedure, it may be advisable to consider an additional session. Typically, the most significant changes become apparent within the initial 20 days after the treatment.
It is however important to keep in mind that the ideal candidate is a person with good skin elasticity in their 40s to 50s with mild to moderate skin sagging of the face, neck or eye area.
Patients outside this age group or with more compromised skin quality may still benefit from the treatment but would often require 2 or 3 treatments and should expect less dramatic outcomes. Follow up treatments depending on the area and tissue thickness shouldn’t be done sooner than 2 – 6 months post to original treatment with the recommendation of longer rather than shorter period between treatments, in order to give skin and tissue the full cycle of collagen stimulation and regrowth.
