Overview
Understanding High intensity frequency ultrasound (HIFU)
High-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) has emerged as a noninvasive technology for aesthetic applications, offering skin tightening, facial rejuvenation, and body contouring.
Originally, it was developed for deep-seated tumors, dermatological HIFU platforms operating at ~20 MHz enable submillimeter-scale treatment of thermal or mechanical injuries localized to the epidermis and superficial dermis, making them suitable for managing benign, premalignant, and malignant skin conditions.
working
How does it work?
HIFU is a highly precise medical procedure that delivers high-intensity focused ultrasound to the deeper layers of the skin. The mechanism of skin tightening by HIFU is largely based on heat-stimulated collagen production in the dermis and contraction of the superficial musculoaponeurotic system (SMAS).
Protocol
The sessions depend on bulk of fat layer, sagging of skin. The results are assessed once in 3 months and maintenance session is planned once in a year.
