Post-care

Postcare after a HIFU treatment is important. It will help you to recover from the treatments.

Keep away from sunlight

Direct exposure to sunlight is detrimental to HIFU treated skin. You must be careful to avoid the sun for a few weeks after undergoing treatment. Overexposure to UV rays can cause hyperpigmentation and other sorts of skin damage. Whenever you step outside, make sure you apply sunscreen until the skin tightening process is seen to completion.

Avoid scratching the skin

Your skin is bound to be over-sensitive as soon as you have undergone your HIFU Facelift session. Sensitive skin will feel a little itchy occasionally, and scratching it is sure to give you skin damage. You will have to try your best to avoid scratching the itchy area. If it gets too much to bear, splashing cold water on your face will help.

Avoid hot baths and hot showers

Hot water tends to strip the skin away of its natural protective oils. Your skin desperately needs these oils to avoid skin irritation right after the treatment. Using cold water to cleanse will keep the protective oils intact. And if you must use hot water, make it lukewarm to ensure quicker recovery of the skin’s oils.

Stop drinking alcohol for a while

Right after a HIFU session, your body is left with some deactivated fat. When that happens, the liver breaks down the discarded fat before the body can get rid of it. Drinking alcohol only adds to the liver’s workload – now, the liver must break down alcohol along with the fat. It can be very dangerous to your overall health.

Stay hydrated

Proper hydration is essential always, however, more so after any kind of medical or cosmetic treatment. After your HIFU sessions, water aids in quicker recovery and more efficient rejuvenation of collagen proteins in the treated area. So, drink away!
