Technology

HIFU technology utilizes focused ultrasound energy to target the deep layers of the skin, including the SMAS (Superficial Muscular Aponeurotic System) layer. This energy stimulates collagen production and promotes tissue tightening, resulting in a firmer, more lifted appearance.

Treated Areas and Main Indications

HIFU is effective for treating:

  • Jawline
  • Double chin and neck
  • Cheeks
  • Undereyes
  • Forehead and temples

Conclusion
