Introduction to HIFU Therapy

HIFU therapy (High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound) is an advanced, non-invasive method for skin rejuvenation that uses focused ultrasound waves to stimulate the deeper layers of the skin. This treatment increases the natural production of collagen without the need for surgery, incisions, or anesthesia, resulting in firmer skin, a lifted appearance, and overall improved skin quality.

HIFU can address issues such as wrinkles, skin sagging, loose skin around the neck and jawline, smile lines, and forehead wrinkles. Unlike invasive methods, this therapy is painless or minimally painful and requires no downtime, with visible results often noticeable from the first week.

At Dr. Mina’s Clinic in Isfahan, HIFU therapy is performed using modern equipment and under the supervision of specialized physicians to ensure maximum safety and treatment quality.

Applications of HIFU Therapy

HIFU therapy, as a non-invasive method, has a wide range of applications for skin rejuvenation and contouring. The main applications include:

  • Reducing skin wrinkles

Fine lines and both superficial and deep wrinkles are improved by stimulating collagen production.

  • Skin tightening and natural lifting

The skin of the face, neck, and jawline becomes firmer, achieving a more youthful and natural contour.

  • Correcting sagging skin

Particularly effective in areas such as the cheeks, eyelids, and neck, which often sag with age.

  • Smoothing smile lines and frown lines

Lines around the mouth and forehead are visibly reduced.

  • Reducing crow’s feet

Wrinkles at the outer corners of the eyes, caused by facial expressions and daily movements, are diminished.

  • Double chin contouring

Ultrasound waves target fat cells and loose tissue, helping to shape the jawline and reduce the appearance of a double chin.

At Dr. Mina’s Clinic in Isfahan, this treatment is performed carefully while adhering to all medical standards to ensure natural and safe results for all patients.

HIFU Therapy Procedure

The HIFU therapy procedure is a non-invasive, surgery-free method, usually performed in several simple steps:

  • Consultation and skin assessment

Before starting the treatment, a specialist at Dr. Mina’s Clinic examines your skin and identifies the areas that require treatment. This ensures a personalized plan tailored to your skin condition.

  • Cleansing the skin

The face and neck are cleansed of dirt, oil, and makeup so that HIFU waves can effectively penetrate the deeper layers of the skin.

  • Marking treatment points

Target areas are precisely marked to ensure ultrasound waves reach the correct depth.

  • Ultrasound wave delivery (HIFU)

The HIFU device sends focused ultrasound waves deep into the skin. These waves stimulate cells and increase collagen and elastin production without damaging the surface.

  • Monitoring and control

During the session, the specialist monitors the device to ensure waves penetrate at the correct depth and intensity.

  • Session completion and short-term care

After the session, the skin may appear slightly red or sensitive, which is normal and usually subsides within a few hours to days. Specialists provide post-treatment care recommendations to maintain optimal results.

Session duration: Typically 30 to 90 minutes, with initial results visible after about one week.

Who Should Not Undergo HIFU

Although HIFU is a safe and non-invasive method, it is not suitable for everyone. The following groups should avoid HIFU or consult a specialist before treatment:

  • Pregnant or breastfeeding women

HIFU is not recommended during this period.

  • Individuals with metal implants or cardiac stents

Ultrasound waves may interfere with metal devices, so consultation and safety precautions are necessary.

  • People with certain medical conditions

Conditions such as epilepsy, heart problems, or active skin disorders may limit HIFU use.

  • Individuals with active wounds or cold sores at the treatment site

Applying HIFU on damaged skin can cause serious complications.

  • Elderly individuals with severe skin sagging

In such cases, HIFU effects may be limited and desired results may not be achieved.

  • People with thyroid problems or dental implants

Inform your doctor before treatment to take necessary precautions.

This classification helps clients make informed decisions and reduces the risk of potential side effects.

Pre- and Post-HIFU Care

To achieve the best results from HIFU and minimize the risk of side effects, it is important to follow proper care before and after the treatment.

Pre-HIFU Care

  • Consultation with a doctor

If you have underlying medical conditions, medication sensitivities, or implants, consult your doctor or operator before undergoing HIFU.

  • Avoid strong sun exposure

The skin should not have severe sunburn. If present, treatment should be postponed.

  • Clean skin

On the day of HIFU, the skin must be clean and free of makeup or heavy creams.

  • Proper hydration and nutrition

Drink enough water and avoid excessive alcohol and caffeine the day before treatment.

Post-HIFU Care

  • Avoid massaging or pressing the treated area

Do not massage the treated area for several days after HIFU.

  • Avoid heat and hot water

For 48 hours after treatment, avoid hot showers, saunas, and jacuzzis.

  • Use cold compress if needed

For mild redness or swelling, a cold compress can be applied.

  • Keep skin hydrated

Drinking plenty of water and using moisturizers helps the skin heal faster.

  • Avoid strenuous exercise

Refrain from heavy physical activity for three days after HIFU.

  • Use suitable sunscreen

Treated skin is sensitive; applying sunscreen when going outdoors is essential.

For more significant skin sagging or deeper wrinkles, the doctor may recommend a second session after a few months.

Frequency

  • To maintain results and prevent new sagging or wrinkles, a follow-up session may be performed after this period if needed.
  • Each session usually lasts 30 to 90 minutes, depending on the treatment area.
