HIFU
Non-surgical facelift using ultrasonic technology.
At CEMDEI, we focus on advanced treatments that respect natural features and deliver visible results safely. HIFU (High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound) is an effective and non-invasive solution for rejuvenating the skin, redefining facial contours, and improving firmness, without the need for surgery or recovery time.
What is it?
HIFU is a medical technology that uses micro-focused ultrasound to stimulate the deeper layers of the skin, including the subcutaneous muscle fascia (SMAS), the same area treated in surgical facelifts. This stimulation causes intense collagen regeneration, providing a lifting effect, toning, and improved skin texture, gradually and naturally.
When necessary
- In cases of mild to moderate sagging in the face or neck.
- When seeking a lifting effect without surgery
- To improve the definition of the mandibular contour and double chin.
- In preventing skin aging
- As a complement to other rejuvenation treatments
Benefits:
- Non-surgical facelift
- Intense stimulation of collagen and elastin.
- Reducing sagging skin on the face, neck, and double chin.
- Improved firmness and facial contour.
- Smoothing of wrinkles and expression lines.
- Safe, non-invasive treatment with no downtime.
- Long-lasting and progressive results (up to 6 months after the session)
Treatment
HIFU treatment is performed by qualified professionals after a personalized assessment. During the session, the device emits micro-beams of ultrasound that precisely target the deep layers of the skin, promoting an internal lifting effect without damaging the skin's surface. The session can last between 30 and 90 minutes, depending on the area being treated, and requires no recovery time.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does HIFU replace a surgical facelift?
HIFU offers a natural and progressive lifting effect, but it does not replace surgery in cases of severe sagging. It is ideal for those seeking visible results without resorting to invasive procedures.
How many sessions are needed?
In most cases, a single session may be sufficient. However, an annual maintenance session may be recommended, depending on individual response and aesthetic goals.
Are the results immediate?
Some effects may be visible immediately after the session, but the full result develops over 2 to 6 months as new collagen is produced.
Are there any side effects?
HIFU is considered safe and well-tolerated. Mild redness or temporary swelling may occur, but no recovery time is required.
Can it be done at any time of year?
Yes. Because HIFU doesn't affect the superficial layer of the skin, there are no restrictions related to sun exposure, making it a safe treatment in any season.
