HIFU
Tighten and lift the skin to reveal youthful radiance
What is HIFU?
High-intensity focused ultrasound, often known as HIFU, is a non-invasive technique that stimulates the production of collagen, therefore lifting and tightening the skin. It is widely used to address facial wrinkles, sagging skin, and other signs of ageing.
What is HIFU effective for?
HIFU has demonstrated effectiveness in various medical and cosmetic applications. Here are some areas where it has been found to be effective:
V-Shape Face Lift
HIFU energy stimulates collagen production and tightens the skin, resulting in a lifted and contoured appearance, creating the desired V-shaped contour.
Facial Rejuvenation
HIFU is widely used for non-invasive facial rejuvenation. It effectively lifts and tightens drooping skin on the face and neck to reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines.
Brow Lifting
This treatment can be targeted to the brow area to lift and tighten the skin, providing a non-surgical alternative to a brow lift.
Jawline Contouring
The focused ultrasound energy can contour and tighten the skin along the jawline, improving the definition of the jaw and reducing jowls.
Neck Lifting
HIFU is often used to address sagging skin on the neck, helping to lift and tighten the tissue for a more youthful appearance.
Skin Tightening
Beyond the face and neck, HIFU can be used on other body areas to tighten and firm the skin, such as the chest, arms, and abdomen.
Wrinkles and Fine Lines
HIFU can help reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines by stimulating collagen production, leading to improved skin texture and tone.
How does HIFU work?
HIFU is a non-surgical procedure that utilises high-frequency ultrasound waves. These waves are focused on a precise point within the body to travel into the deep layers of the skin. When the focused ultrasound waves reach the target tissue, they generate heat.
Thermal coagulation or tissue damage can result from a sharp increase in temperature in the focus zone. This does not harm the skin; instead, it increases the synthesis of collagen, a protein that gives the skin its structure. The effects of firming and tightening the skin are facilitated by this stimulation of collagen.
HIFU can be used on all areas of the face, neck, and body to provide a tightening and lifting effect. At Glowwis, we utilise this treatment to address various concerns, mainly ageing, fine lines, texture, and more!

Why HIFU?
Opting for High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) can be beneficial for several reasons. These are:
Skin Tightening & Lifting
HIFU encourages the production of collagen, causing the skin to appear tighter and lifted. It can aid in addressing wrinkles, fine lines, and sagging skin, giving illusion of a younger-looking skin.
Natural-looking Results
The gradual development of results over weeks to months, as collagen production increases, can contribute to a more natural-looking outcome compared to more immediate but sometimes drastic changes seen with surgical procedures.
Long-lasting Results
Long-lasting effects occur as HIFU increases collagen formation for several months. Although results may differ from person to person, the benefits are usually long-lasting.
Versatility
HIFU can be applied to various areas of the face and body, making it versatile for addressing different aesthetic concerns, from facial rejuvenation to body contouring.
Specific Targeting
HIFU allows for precise targeting of treatment areas at different depths within the skin, offering a customizable approach to address specific concerns.
Comprehensive Solution
HIFU is employed for a range of aesthetic purposes, including facial rejuvenation, skin tightening, and body contouring, providing a comprehensive solution for different cosmetic goals.
