HIFU Facelift & Neck Lift Brisbane

HIFU may cause some discomfort. Comfort levels vary from person to person and level of intensity of treatment. You do not feel the heat but in some areas close to the bone it can be slightly painful for the few seconds that the therapy is being applied in that spot.

The answer is yes! Sagging skin below your chin and along the lower jawline is commonly referred to as Jowls. HIFU provides a non-surgical treatment for jowls with heat energy that focuses on lifting, skin tightening, and firming. For those beginning to notice sagging and loose skin, our HIFU treatments can help your jowls by reducing skin laxity in this area and redefining your jawline.

The answer is yes, but we recommend the following:

• Avoid filler in or near treatment areas 8 weeks prior

• Avoid anti-wrinkle in or near treatment areas 3 weeks prior

• Avoid any laser treatments on the area 2 weeks prior

• Avoid any facial peels 4 weeks prior

• Avoid microdermabrasion 2 weeks prior

• Avoid PDO Mono Threads in or near treatment areas 6 weeks prior

HIFU technology can reduce fat on the face and body. Excess facial fat such as double chin, jowls, and chubby cheeks can be reduced with a proper HIFU treatment. Not only does HIFU destroy fat, but it also boosts collagen growth which results in skin tightening and firmer skin.

Our non-invasive and non-surgical HIFU treatments can help diminish your double chin and define your jawline. By targeting the deep layers of the skin, this slows down the ageing signs and lifts and tightens your skin. This lifting and skin tightening can help get rid of the double chin.

We usually do a HIFU neck lift at the same time as the double chin treatment. With our non-surgical neck lift in Brisbane, the HIFU healing process kickstarts collagen production, tightening and lifting the skin of the neck.

The beauty of this non-invasive treatment is that there is no downtime. Side effects can be temporary swelling, numbness, and bruising.

You should achieve excellent results with only one session . Some clients will see an initial effect right after their treatment, generally a refreshed glowing look, but the real results appear over the following 2 to 3 months as new collagen works to lift and tighten the skin. Treatment can be repeated after three to four months. Results can last 1 to 2 years, however this depends on a variety of different factors including age, health, how much collagen pre-existed to build on, skin laxity,  and lifestyle and diet. Some clients may benefit from additional treatments.

HIFU can also be extremely effective when combined with other treatments. We can customise a treatment plan for you suited to your budget.

To get optimal and long-lasting results, we recommend two sessions spaced 3 months apart in the first year. Then repeat one session a year to maintain results. You may need a few extra treatments 3 months apart for trickier areas.

Following the HIFU procedure, you will be able to continue with your day-to-day activities. To achieve the best possible results, it is important for patients who have undergone HIFU skin treatment to understand and follow the aftercare instructions. This will help to prevent complications and side effects that can minimise the gains of the treatment.

• Avoid the Sun

• I·t is important for you to try to prevent yourself from exposure to sunlight and cold for a few weeks

• The reason is that avoiding the sun will help to prevent hyperpigmentation and reduce the chance of sunburn and skin damage

• This should be continued until the skin tightening process is completed

• Take a Break From Alcohol

• Drinking alcohol should be avoided after the treatment for up to 7 days

• Alcohol makes your liver to do extra work. After the treatment procedure, your liver will be tasked with breaking down the deactivated fat

• Consuming alcohol means that the liver now has to break down alcohol in addition to the deactivated fat

• Don’t Scratch Your Skin

• Avoid scratching your skin after you have had your treatment done

• At this time, your skin will be very sensitive, and scratching your skin increases the risk of skin damage

• Drink More Water

• Drink lots of water after your treatment and keep your body hydrated 

• Water will also help in your recovery by increasing the rate at which collagen is produced in the body

• Don’t have Hot Showers or Baths

• Always avoid hot showers, saunas, spas, steam rooms after your treatment

• When taking your shower or bath, use cold water as this will help keep the natural protective oil on your skin and also prevent skin irritation

• If at all you must use hot water, you are better off using lukewarm water as this will facilitate the quick recovery of your skin

• Try to avoid excessive exercise or anything that overly raises your body heat
