How long does HIFU treatment last?

For the person who is looking for a way to boost collagen production and give your skin a more youthful, lifted appearance without surgery then High Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) is the answer. HIFU is an innovative cosmetic procedure that utilizes ultrasound energy to provide non-invasive skin tightening – meaning no needles or incisions are required! It’s fast becoming one of the most sought-after treatments due to its effectiveness as an alternative to traditional surgical facelift procedures.

‍Generally speaking, patients may enjoy benefits from 1-2 years post-treatment; however, some individuals experience even longer-lasting results since body naturally regenerates collagen! The HIFU, or high-intensity focused ultrasound, facelift procedure is one of the most highly rated non-surgical facial treatments that is currently available in the world of facial aesthetics. Its popularity is mostly thanks to the fact that it is the most powerful non-surgical facelift treatment currently available on the market.

The HIFU facelift works by using ultrasound energy to target specific areas of the skin with a deep heating effect and by targeting the structural layers of the skin at key depths, the body’s natural healing response is triggered and the production of collagen in the tissue is renewed at a cellular level. As the collagen levels within the skin increase, the skin starts to tighten which reduces the signs of ageing which results in a more youthful appearance.

As we all know, collagen is one of the single most important tools that the body has to help keep the skin from losing its laxity. When we age, the body naturally slows its production of collagen down which is why we start to lose definition in the skin and it starts to become wrinkled and aged. By triggering renewed production, in a process known as neocollagenesis, you can effectively treat and manage the visible signs of aging on the skin.

How long does a HIFU facelift last?

This all depends on how well you’re willing to manage your aftercare. If you’re on the ball with it, then your results will last much longer than if you don’t bother with it at all. No matter what, you should see a minimum period of around 3-6 months of benefits to your skin, but if you take care of it properly then the benefits of a HIFU facelift can even last as long as a year. From that point, it’s then up to you whether you’re happy enough with your skin to leave it as is or if you want to book in for another HIFU facelift treatment to make your results last even longer.
