The Facelift Treatment

HIFU stands for high-intensity focused ultrasound which is rapidly gaining popularity due to its effectiveness in comparison to other non-invasive facelift treatments.

The treatment is unique in its ability to penetrate beneath the surface of the skin, targeting the SMAS (superficial muscular aponeurotic system) layer.

At a depth of around 4.5mm, the SMAS is the same layer that is adjusted by surgeons during facelifts. Unlike surgery, however, HIFU is far more safe and affordable.

Prices

In addition to your treatment time, all procedures include a 15-minute consultation, a 15-minute skin analysis and marking and a 10-minute patch test.

Please Note - our London clinics have a £50 treatment surcharge

How it Works

The treatment uses a very advanced technology that utilises multiple beams of highly-focused ultrasound. Individually, each beam has no effect, but when the beams converge they create a node of thermal energy which causes the targeted muscle to tighten.

What areas can be treated?

The treatment is tailored to your requirements as HIFU can be used one or more of the following areas:

• Cheeks
• Frown lines (forehead)
• Jaw line (drooping)
• Crow’s feet
• Eyebrows (sagging)

Sessions / Results

Each treatment at our Newcastle clinic lasts approximately one hour, which includes the pre-consultation, skin analysis and patch test.

A single treatment may be all that is required, however, the number of treatments you will need depends on the areas that are being treated and your responsiveness to the procedure.

Results can be seen within the first 3-4 weeks with further improvements noted up to six months*.

HIFU is a semi-permanent treatment, meaning results can last up to two years*.
