THE PROCEDURE
Mirconeedling is a minimally invasive treatment, the micro-needles on the device create micro punctures this is to stimulate and encourage the production of collagen and elastin. Microchannels are also left on the dermis from the microneedling, this helps the solution to better penetrate the skin deeply, but damaging the skin and it stimulates the healing process in the skin which encourages collagen and elastin production
Overview
HIFU stands for High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound. It’s a non-surgical, non-invasive treatment designed to tighten, lift and rejuvenate the skin by stimulating natural collagen production deep within the skin layers. Often described as a “non-surgical facelift,” HIFU delivers visible results without downtime.
HIFU uses focused ultrasound energy to heat targeted layers beneath the skin surface (the dermis and SMAS layer, the same layer addressed in surgical facelifts). This controlled thermal energy triggers the body’s natural healing response, leading to new collagen formation over the following weeks and months.

What results can I expect?
HIFU can instantly improve skin with poor laxity, but the results are progressive over a 3 month period where the best results are seen.

Avoid strenuous exercise for 24 hours. Avoid sun (and sunbeds), Saunas, Steam rooms or heat for 72 hours. Avoid consuming excess amounts of alcohol or salts to avoid excess swelling. If you have swelling you may apply a cool compress for 15 minutes each hour.
