Submental tightening (HIFU)

What Is Hifu?

HIFU (high-intensity focused ultrasound) targets deep into the dermis layer and SMAS (subcutaneous musculo-aponeurotic support system) without causing injury to the surrounding structures. The applied energy contracts the SMAS and stimulates collagen reproduction, producing significant skin tightening and lifting of the tissues.

How Does Hifu Work?

HIFU is a safe non-invasive treatment. Its micro-focused ultrasound waves are able to target the SMAS (muscle) layer without harming the skin or surrounding tissue while promoting collagen growth. This will in turn dramatically lifts, firms and improves jawline definition and reduces the appearance of double chin.

This technology is used for medical treatments.
