For those seeking a non-surgical approach to facial rejuvenation, the Hifu 4D Lift offered at ITS Clinic by Dr. Tanu presents a compelling solution. This procedure harnesses the power of High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) technology to deliver targeted deep-tissue stimulation, promoting a lifted, sculpted, and more youthful appearance.
4D HIFU works its magic by delivering a targeted deep-tissue punch. It utilizes high-intensity focused ultrasound energy to create microscopic injuries within the lower layers of your skin. This controlled trauma triggers your body's natural healing response, leading to a surge in collagen production.
Collagen is the protein responsible for maintaining skin’s elasticity and firmness. By stimulating collagen growth, 4D HIFU helps tighten and lift loose skin. But for the body, 4D HIFU takes things a step further. By using even deeper levels of ultrasound energy, it can effectively target and disrupt fat cells, leading to a reduction in stubborn pockets of unwanted fat. This dual action of collagen stimulation and fat reduction results in a firmer, more sculpted appearance.
With the vast amount of skin tightening methods available on the market, it can be hard to choose which one is the right option for you. A high intensity focused ultrasound facelift (HIFU) promises a non-invasive way to tighten the skin and reduce the appearance of wrinkles. Also known as the ‘lunchtime facelift,’ the procedure itself is very quick, targeting specific areas of the face and neck that require some rejuvenation. While ultrasound therapy is considered a safe method of facial tightening, no procedure is faultless and there are certain side effects to consider before getting a 4D HIFU facelift.
• Pain- Ultrasonic therapy is painless for most, with some feeling warmth or tingling. Discomfort is rare and temporary, fading during treatment. Our professionals can use numbing cream for added comfort.
• Blotchy skin- This was the most common side effect reported by patients during a study researching the effectiveness of 4D HIFU. Treated areas can become red and blotchy, particularly if your skin is sensitive and prone to redness. This side effect is not permanent, usually going away a few hours after the treatment. Body Sculpt 360° Aesthetics & Holistic Health does provide creams to settle this at the end of treatment and always have some to take home if required and/or will refer you to the proper place to purchase.
• Swelling- Bloated and swollen skin are rare side effects of a 4D HIFU facelift, but because each person’s skin is different it’s possible for swelling to occur. The swelling usually disappears after a few days to a few weeks, then you can fully appreciate the age-rewinding benefits of your ultrasound facelift.
• Numbness- 4D HIFU may cause temporary numbness, especially around the eyes and lips. This usually resolves within two weeks. We prioritize your safety and will discuss all potential side effects during your consultation at Body Sculpt 360°.
• Hyper-pigmentation Ultrasound treatment, though rare, can cause permanent skin darkening due to heat (up to 65°C). At Body Sculpt 360°, client safety comes first. We use patch tests, thorough consultations, and highly trained practitioners to minimize this risk.
Collagen is the invisible architect behind youthful, plump skin. This protein acts as the scaffolding, providing structure, elasticity, and firmness. As we age, collagen production naturally declines, leading to wrinkles, fine lines, and sagging. 4D HIFU targets this very issue by triggering a process called neocollagenesis – the new birth of collagen.
20% Of The Results Of 4D HIFU Are Seen Instantaneous And Gradually Improve Over Time As Collagen Production Increases. The Full Effects Become Noticeable Within A Few Months And Can Last Up From Permanently To A Minimum 12 Months-3 Years, Depending On Individual Factors Like Skin Condition, Age, And Lifestyle.
