HIFU

High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) - It might sound like a term lifted from a science fiction novel, but it's a reality that's transforming the beauty and skincare industry. HIFU facelifts are non-invasive procedures designed to tighten and lift sagging skin, reduce wrinkles, and provide a more youthful appearance. How does it work, you ask?HIFU utilizes the power of focused ultrasound waves to target specific layers of your skin. Unlike traditional ultrasound, which is often associated with prenatal imaging, HIFU uses higher frequencies to reach deeper into the skin. Cellular damage occurs whenever a specified temperature is reached by the targeted area's cells. Despite what would seem like a contradiction, the damage actually encourages the cells to generate more collagen, a protein that gives the skin structure.As collagen levels rise, skin becomes firmer, tighter, and less wrinkled. The upper layers of the skin and the nearby problem are not harmed since the high-frequency ultrasound beams are concentrated on a specific tissue spot underneath the skin's surface.Dr. Urvi Panchal offers the best HIFU treatment in Gurugram near you. HIFU utilizes ultrasound energy to stimulate tissue underneath the skin and boost collagen. Known as a non-surgical facelift with zero cuts or scars, HIFU works by targeting deep supportive tissue layers of the skin that cause sagging. HIFU jumpstarts new collagen leading to a naturally lifted look over several months. This innovative skin tightening and lifting treatment employs focused ultrasound energy to kickstart collagen and elastin regeneration.HIFU heats tissues at predetermined depths below the skin using precise energy delivery causing microdamage. This triggers the body’s wound-healing mechanisms promoting the formation of new collagen and elastin fibres over the following weeks. As these structural proteins restore elasticity and contractile properties in tissues, sagging loose skin gets tightened, lifting drooping areas.“It’s an excellent anti-aging option for those in their mid-30s to early 60s looking for skin tightening without extended downtimes. HIFU achieves surface tissue heating and deep structural remodeling unmatched by superficial skin laser treatments. Jowls, nasolabial folds, neck, upper arms, abdomen respond beautifully to focused ultrasound skin lifting,” elaborates Dr. Panchal.A single session visibly improves firmness with progressive tightening over the next 3 months as collagen regeneration peaks. While ultrasound gel minimizes discomfort during the procedure, one can experience some redness initially which fades shortly. Many patients resume normal activities after a session with concealable downtime.​If carried out by a skilled and certified practitioner, HIFU is regarded as being quite safe.The best part about this course of therapy is that you may return to your regular activities as soon as you leave the clinic. There could be a tiny bit of redness or swelling, but it should go away fast. For a few weeks, the treated region may continue to feel somewhat tingly.Rarely, bruising or transient numbness may occur, although these side effects often disappear within a few days.
