HIFU Treatment Service
At Emerald Med Spa, our HIFU (High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound) treatment is designed to brighten and improve the appearance of your skin by tightening it. This non-invasive procedure is ideal for the face, neck, chest, and body.
WHAT IS HIFU Treatment ?
HIFU is a cutting-edge, non-invasive cosmetic treatment that delivers the benefits of a facelift without surgery. At Emerald Med Spa, we offer this treatment for the face, neck, chest, and body, with each session lasting approximately 60 minutes.
This treatment has gained popularity for its ability to provide significant results without the need for invasive procedures.
BENEFITS OF HIFU Treatment
- Reduces wrinkles
- Tightens skin on the neck and lower neckline
- Lifts eyelids, eyebrows, and cheeks
- Enhances jawline definition
- Smoothens the skin
How It Works
The HIFU treatment begins with cleansing the targeted area and applying a gel. A handheld device then emits ultrasound waves in short bursts to the skin.
To minimize discomfort, we may apply a local anesthetic before the procedure, and over-the-counter pain relievers such as ibuprofen or acetaminophen can also be taken.
There’s no recovery time required after the session, so you can resume your daily activities immediately. Depending on your desired results, you may need 1 to 6 sessions.
