WHAT IS HIFU?

HIFU stands for HIGH INTENSITY FOCUSSED ULTRASOUND. This focussed ultrasound works on the deeper layers of the skin on the face and/or body – it’s aim is to heat up the skin cells rapidly, to a temperature that is actually going to temporarily damage the cells. This might not sound great, until you understand that the “damage” actually stimulates the cells to produce more collagen. Collagen that results in tighter and firmer skin. And this is all focussed on tissue below the skin’s surface, so no actual damage to the upper layer of the skin.

This amazing treatment has no downtime and is virtually pain free!

At Mojo Beauty we use HIFU 7D, which is the latest HIFU technology available on the market!

HOW MANY HIFU TREATMENTS WILL I NEED TO SEE RESULTS?

With only ONE HIFU treatment you will be able to see results. For most areas treated, you will be able to see immediate results. The skin will keep improving over the course of 12 weeks post treatment.

Patients over the age of thirty who have mild-moderate skin laxity will actually find that they experience the most results from one treatment. For those with more damaged skin or with a more severe skin laxity may require more treatments to see meaningful results. The recommended amount of treatments in general is between 1-3.

BENEFITS OF HIFU

Less wrinkles – a major benefit of HIFU treatments are that they assist in noticeable wrinkle reduction.

Tighter skin – the most noticeable of results is always the tightening of sagging skin. Not only tighter skin, but overall smoother skin (who needs filters with smooth skin).

Unexpected lift – tighter skin and less wrinkles results in an overall lifting of the appearance of the face, the jowls, such as lifting the cheeks, eyelids or eyebrows.

Enhancing the jawline – if your HIFU treatment was specifically to treat the skin around the jawline and neck, it results in enhancing your natural jawline.
