How HIFU works?
With ageing, the collagen & elastin fibres in our skin start decreasing, causing the skin to wrinkle & sag. To reverse this, HIFU stimulates collagen growth by sending ultrasonic energy into the dermis layer. This energy causes a small injury to the tissue. When tissue heals, it produces new collagen that tightens the skin naturally.
To achieve this, HIFU technologies target different layers of skin that affect our facial appearance- Epidermis, dermis, subcutaneous fat & superficial muscular aponeurotic system (SMAS)
Skin tightening occurs due to collagen contraction and the induction of new collagen fibres.
