High Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU)

High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) is a non-invasive and painless treatment made especially for facelifts. HIFU is a safe treatment that locally delivers and deposits ultrasound energy deep into the skin at an optimal temperature. The ultrasound energy encourages the production of collagen for skin rejuvenation, which gives tightening and lifting effect. HIFU can be done on both face and body.

The High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) treatment uses ultrasound techniques to help tighten and rejuvenate the skin from the inside out. HIFU is a non-invasive treatment that helps promote and improves your skin. VIPPS offers HIFU treatment for those between 35 to 60 or whoever who require the tightening of sagging skin on their face and body.

The High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) System

The machine used in our HIFU treatment is non-invasive, safe, and effective technique. The ultrasound energy from the machine bypasses the skin’s surface without damaging the skin as it is done at the optimal depth and temperature. This triggering procedure will give out a response from the skin which then naturally produces fresh collagen that is able to regain and retain the skin’s elasticity. 

The HIFU treatment is only required for one session as it immediately rejuvenates and improves your skin. But for results that are more prominent for areas that need more care will require more sessions over the next few weeks. This helps to give the collagen more time before it takes effect on your skin, tightening and reducing wrinkles as well as signs of ageing at the targeted areas.
