With warmer weather slowly closing in, you might feel more motivated to get in shape for the upcoming holiday season. Unfortunately, few to no workouts can improve the elasticity and firmness of your skin in such a short period of time (YES, the holiday season kicks off in less than two months from now).
High-intensity Focussed Ultrasound (HIFU) is a relatively new cosmetic treatment for skin tightening that includes a number of benefits. For one, being a non-invasive treatment, HIFU is a painless replacement for surgical options, and the ultrasound energy encourage the production of collagen, which we all know results in firmer skin.
Need more convincing? Here are six reasons for you to consider HIFU Treatment if you want to boast rejuvenated skin this summer.
1. HIFU Aids in Wrinkle Reduction
HIFU is a safe and effective treatment for facial lifting and refining of wrinkles. After several small clinical trials by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), a considerable amount of people were able to see results after treatment, without the risks associated with surgery.
2. HIFU Enhances Jawline Definition
The technology used in HIFU treatments work not only to reduce fat, but also lift, firm and tighten the skin around the neck, chin and jawline.
3. No downtime, it’s safe and effective
HIFU is considered a safe and effective procedure for tightening the facial skin. Its non-invasive process has obvious advantages over surgical procedures as there are no incisions and no anaesthetic required.
4. Treatment is natural looking and has long-lasting results
One of the reasons why HIFU is such a popular treatment is that it deploys the body’s natural resources. In addition, the natural procedure enables clients to look like the enhanced version of themselves. In one study published by the US National Library of Medicine National Institutes of Health (NCBI), 94% of people described improvement in skin lifting at a three month follow-up visit.
5. HIFU is considerable cheaper than cosmetic surgery
By cutting out the cost of hospitalisation and anaesthetic, HIFU treatment is considerably more affordable than surgical procedures. With no after-treatment risks, HIFU also saves costs on medication as surgical procedures can often lead to bleeding and clotting, pain and scarring, or even infection.
6. It stimulates collagen generation
HIFU uses focussed ultrasound energy that targets the layers of skin just below the surface. The ultrasound energy causes the tissue to heat up rapidly. Once the cells in the targeted area reach a certain temperature, they experience cellular damage. While this may seem counterintuitive, the damage actually stimulates the cells to produce more collagen – a protein that provides structure to the skin.
