It happens to everyone. One day you wake up and look in the mirror and see wrinkles starting to form. When did your age start showing on your skin?

Luckily, you don’t have to settle for sagging skin and wrinkles as you get older. Cosmetic treatments can help you look younger and give your skin a healthy appearance.

But you don’t want to have surgery. You’d prefer a non-invasive procedure to rejuvenate your skin. A HIFU treatment might be just what you’re looking for.

We’ve put together a list of these five benefits of HIFU treatments so you can decide if it’s right for you. 

1. HIFU Is Non-invasive

HIFU refers to a High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound treatment. This technology uses ultrasound energy to focus on cells beneath the surface of your skin.

The treatment stimulates collagen production which helps give your skin structure. This reduces sagging and wrinkles. 

During treatment, a technician will place a handheld device connected to a HIFU machine on your skin. There are no incisions and no injections during the procedure. 

2. It’s Low Risk

Demand for anti-aging procedures has increased over the years. More Australians are opting for plastic surgery, with some even flying overseas for inexpensive procedures.

But like any surgery, plastic surgery carries risks. The ASAPS has noticed an increase in complications from plastic surgery. Aside from typical surgical complications, there are doctors who are not surgeons performing invasive procedures.

Because HIFU is non-invasive, you don’t have to worry about these risks. Some people do experience skin redness and swelling, but these problems are mild and temporary.

3. It’s Inexpensive

Costs of HIFU vary based on the treatment area, but they are less expensive than invasive procedures. While a facelift might cost you $6,500 or more, a HIFU facial costs a fraction of that. 

Ultrasound treatments are more affordable and accessible for your average person. Anyone who wants to improve the appearance of their skin can look into HIFU skin tightening procedures.

4. HIFU Is an Effective Treatment

HIFU has been around since the 1940s, which means that we have had plenty of time to analyse its efficacy. Scientists and medical professionals say HIFU treatments are effective. Most people are satisfied with the results of their treatment.

You can see HIFU before and after pictures that demonstrate the effectiveness of the procedure. Most people see results within 12 weeks, and the effects last for 6 months or longer.

5. There Is No Recovery Time

A great part of HIFU is that you can return to normal activity immediately after the treatment. You don’t need a hospital stay or rest time at home. 

Some people experience mild tingling during the procedure, but there is no pain that will keep you from your daily routines, like with surgery.
