HIFU therapy

HIFU therapy: an alternative to cosmetic procedures

In the past, when the age increased, people either coped with the changes in their appearance or grieved over it and there was nothing they could do about it.

But now the situation is different; Before they reach old age, people take action to prevent its effects. Or now that they are older, they use beauty services to feel better about themselves.

These procedures are not necessarily invasive and accompanied by pain and anesthesia. Things like HIFU can help people to be young and beautiful without pain or discomfort.

Let’s learn more about this beauty service:

Applications of HIFU

Many doctors consider HIFU as an alternative to cosmetic surgery and suggest its use to reduce and prevent signs of aging.

Here we want to tell you the most important effects and uses of HIFU:

• Reduce skin wrinkles
• Shameful formatting
• Skin tightening
• Reduction of sagging and laxity of facial skin
• Reduction of wrinkles and laxity of neck skin
• Cheek and eyelid lift
• Correction of smile line and frown line
• Removing wrinkles from the outer corner of the eye
• Removing wrinkles on the forehead

HIFU for Double chin

Relieving puffiness with HIFU is one of the most popular uses of this device.

What you see as a lump in the back of your throat is either fat or loose skin. There are good ways to eliminate both of them.

Usually, we suggest to use HIFU for shaping and firming the buttocks. In this case, ultrasound waves with high intensity heat the skin cells, increase collagen production and cause it to take shape.

In cases where the fat is caused by the accumulation of fat in the neck and under the chin, ultrasound waves should be irradiated to the fat cells. Heating these cells breaks them down and deactivates them.

How does HIFU rejuvenate my skin?

What is important to get rid of skin wrinkles is the outer layer of the skin. The HIFU device affects these layers by using focused ultrasound waves;

so that the temperature of that tissue increases rapidly. This temperature has increased until the cells of that layer are damaged. The damage done to the cells increases the production of collagen in that area and the quality of the skin increases. Because as you know, the more collagen there is in the skin, the fresher and younger the skin will be.

This beauty technology is the only technology that can affect the third layer of the skin.

How many sessions are needed?

HIFU’s single session is what distinguishes this device from similar devices. This means that you don’t need to repeat a HIFU session between 6 months and 1 year.

After a HIFU session, you can clearly see its results a week later. As mentioned, these results last for a long time and do not need to be repeated. HIFU treatment sessions usually last between 30 and 90 minutes.

Benefits of skin HIFU

Choosing between various beauty services is a difficult task. The way to choose is to compare these services and weigh the benefits of each.

Here we tell you the benefits of HIFU, to make the decision easier for you:

• See the result after one session
• Persistence of the result for up to one year
• Little pain and discomfort
• Hyphotherapy
• Hyphotherapy

Complications of working with HIFU device

HIFU is a sensitive device that requires a lot of skill and experience to work with. If a specialist doctor or an experienced operator performs HIFU for you in a reputable clinic, there is nothing to worry about. But some of its possible complications are as follows:

• Feeling pain in the treated area
• Possible redness and swelling
• Numbness of the area
• Creating spots and redness

These possible side effects will be resolved after 3 days to 2 weeks after the treatment.

Does HIFU hurt?

Whether HIFU hurts or not depends entirely on your tolerance threshold. Some clients feel a little discomfort and tingling because of the small electrical pulses that enter the skin and some of the heat that hits the skin.

But don’t worry! Its pain is not unbearable. Since no light rays are used in the HIFU method and only ultrasound waves are used, we can be sure of the safety of this method.

Who should not do HIFU?

We talked about the advantages of using HIFU, but you should know that this advanced technology cannot be suitable for everyone. Some people, due to their special conditions, it is better to use other beauty services.

The following are the people who cannot do HIFU:

• pregnant women;
• Those who have a metal prosthesis or cardiac stent in their body;
• People with diseases such as epilepsy and heart diseases;
• Those who have active sores or herpes at the treatment site;
• Elderly people who have severe skin sagging and have a lot of sagging;

Note: If you have an implanted tooth in your mouth, just inform the operators or the doctor so that they can make sure that the HIFU waves do not collide with the implant by placing a barrier between the skin or the tooth.

Note: If you have a thyroid problem, consult your doctor before using this device.

Who is HIFU suitable for?

Well… with the following explanations, you can check whether you are a suitable candidate for using HIFU or not:

If your age is more than 30 years, it is better to prioritize HIFU to help delay skin aging and remove fine wrinkles.

If your skin is loose for any reason, for example, you have suddenly lost weight, this method can solve your problem to a large extent.

Those whose skin laxity is more in the neck and groin area, their skin usually responded in this way.

Care before and after hyphotherapy

Any cosmetic procedure may have side effects in two ways. One is at the time of doing it and the other is after doing it.

At Dr. Mina’s clinic, we try our best to reduce the complications of the implementation time to zero. But the care after that is your responsibility.

These cares and things that the doctor will tell you after they are done are very important:

• Avoid massaging the treated area;
• There is nothing wrong with showering with cold water and applying a cold compress;
• Alcoholic and caffeinated drinks reduce collagen formation; For this reason, it is not recommended to drink this type of drinks;
• Try not to sleep on your face for 24 hours after doing HIFU;
• Do not take a hot shower for 48 hours and avoid heat;
• Drink plenty of water before and after treatment;
• Do not do heavy sports for three days.
