What is HIFU and Liposonix?

 

High intensity focused ultrasound was first invented in the USA by Myron Medical Cosmetic Research Institution for areas of the face, neck and décolletage.  Since its invention, many technology companies jumped on the concept to introduce it to the market. The HIFU treatment for areas of the face and neck is FDA approved and extremely effective in stimulating collagen reproduction and neo collagenesis, for tightening skin on the face and body and for getting rid of unwanted body fat. It actually gets rid of it so it doesn’t return by treating it at 65 degrees to eliminate the treated areas of fat.

No downtime, no time off work, no scarring or bruising, no bleeding and the results are natural looking.

The focused ultrasound energy skips the epidermis layer leaving no damage or scarring to the top layer of the skin and targets at the required depth of 1.5 mm, 3mm or 4.5mm for skin tightening in the suitable areas and up to 18mm for targeting the fat. The energy which is delivered at around 65 degrees will produce a thermal effect to the dermal collagen fibers and stimulate the SMAS and literally melts fat.The skin will be lifted and tightened, the fat will instantly melt and start to break down and be excreted from the body naturally. Some results will be seen instantly but with optimum results seen at 12 weeks post-treatment when the collagen regeneration process effects can be noticed, and the fat has left the body. The effects will last from 18 months up to 3 years with just one treatment for the skin tightening and for the body fat reduction results can be seen immediately and progressively. Top up treatments and a course of treatments may be required for fat reduction to achieve the desired results. There is no post-surgery downtime and you can resume your normal activities immediately. This is the only treatment currently on the market that treats the same depth (4.5mm below the skin surface) as is treated during a surgical operation– but without the surgery.
It’s virtually pain-free and effects vary depending on the person’s pain threshold, the treatment being performed correctly and having a good HIFU machine. A slight tingling sensation can be felt during treatment usually during skin tightening and during body fat reduction usually no pain is felt at all, although some people feel more uncomfortable than others. The average treatment price for a HIFU skin tightening or body fat reduction / slimming treatment varies anywhere from £149 per area to £500/area.
