Non-invasive skin tightening treatments. Instant results and no downtime.

HIFU Treatments with The Skin Girl

​

High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) is a non-invasive cosmetic treatment that uses focused ultrasound energy to stimulate collagen production and tighten the skin.

How HIFU works:

​

1. Targeted Ultrasound Energy

HIFU delivers highly concentrated ultrasound waves to specific layers of the skin, including the deep dermis and the Superficial Muscular Aponeurotic System (SMAS), the layer commonly targeted in surgical facelifts.

​

2. Deep Tissue Penetration

The ultrasound energy penetrates deep into the skin without affecting the surface. It heats tissues at a precise depth (typically 1.5mm, 3mm, and 4.5mm) to a temperature of about 60–70°C.

​

3. Thermal Effect

The focused heat creates controlled micro-injuries in the targeted areas, stimulating the body's natural wound-healing response. This process increases collagen and elastin production, essential proteins for skin firmness and elasticity.

​

4. Skin Tightening and Lifting

As new collagen forms over time (usually taking 8–12 weeks), the skin gradually tightens, resulting in a firmer, more lifted appearance. three treatments are recommended spaced around 12 weeks apart.

​

Key Benefits of HIFU

​

  • Non-invasive: No incisions, needles, or downtime.

  • Precision: Targets specific layers for optimal results.

  • Long-lasting: Results can last 6–12 months or longer with proper maintenance.

  • Versatile: Effective for lifting sagging skin on the face, neck, and other areas.

​

HIFU is ideal for individuals seeking a natural, non-surgical approach to anti-aging and skin tightening, with minimal discomfort and no recovery time.
