● HIFU FACIAL TREATMENT
This advanced treatment uses focused ultrasound energy to target the deeper layers of facial tissue, offering a non-surgical solution for lifting, tightening and rejuvenating the face, jawline and neck.
Platinum HIFU reaches the SMAS layer — the same layer targeted in surgical facelifts — stimulating intense collagen production and remodelling from within. Just one session can lead to visible improvements in skin firmness, contour and overall tone.
Put simply, HIFU helps reveal smoother, tighter and more youthful-looking skin — no needles, no downtime, just natural results.

HIFU stands for High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound. It is a non-invasive facial treatment that targets deeper layers of skin, including the dermis and SMAS, while leaving the surface undamaged. The aim is to stimulate collagen and create a natural-looking lift.
HIFU delivers concentrated ultrasound energy at precise depths of 1.5 mm, 3.0 mm and 4.5 mm, according to the area and your skin’s needs.
Focused pulses heat targeted tissue to around 60–70°C, creating controlled thermal points below the skin. Existing collagen contracts immediately.
The body’s healing response stimulates longer-term collagen regeneration over 4–12 weeks, creating gradual improvement in firmness and texture.
The 1.5 mm depth addresses fine lines and surface texture; 3.0 mm reaches deeper dermis for firmness and elasticity; and 4.5 mm targets the SMAS layer for structural lifting.
Because the ultrasound bypasses the skin surface, there are no needles or surface damage. Results develop naturally and can peak around three to six months after treatment.

What is HIFU for the face and how does it work?
HIFU (High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound) is a non-invasive treatment that lifts, firms and rejuvenates the skin. Focused ultrasound energy reaches below the surface to stimulate collagen and tighten underlying tissue, creating a natural-looking lift without surgery or downtime.
Is HIFU suitable for all skin types and ages?
HIFU is suitable for all skin tones and is most often chosen by clients aged 30 and over with mild to moderate skin laxity. A consultation will establish whether it fits your skin and goals.
Which areas of the face can be treated with HIFU?
HIFU can target the jawline and jowls, cheeks, nasolabial folds, brow area, neck and décolletage. It is often chosen to address sagging skin and define facial contours.
Is the treatment painful?
You may feel warmth or tingling as the energy reaches deeper skin layers, but most clients find treatment comfortable. Any discomfort is usually brief.
Will there be any downtime or side effects?
HIFU is non-invasive and has no planned downtime, so you can usually return to your normal routine immediately. Slight redness, tingling or mild swelling can occur and generally fades quickly.
When will I see results from HIFU facial treatment?
Some clients notice an immediate improvement in tightness. Full results develop gradually over 4–12 weeks as new collagen forms, with further improvements in texture, lift and firmness.
How long do the results last and how often will I need a treatment?
Results from one HIFU treatment can last 12–18 months, depending on your skin and lifestyle. Some clients choose a maintenance session about once a year.
