Get up to 80% results from a surgical facelift, without the intervention or risks associated with anesthesia
Introduction
The Hifu called "High Intensity Focused Ultrasound" is a non-invasive technique performed using high intensity focused ultrasound to treat sagging skin and the volumes of certain specific areas of the face and body. It also destroys fat cells. Focused ultrasound acts at all levels for a complete treatment (relaxation + elimination of fat).
It is the only technique to have obtained approval in the USA from the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in the context of medical face, neck and décolleté facelifts.
Ultrasound forms coagulation points in the skin (75 to 80 degree heat). To defend itself and to activate the natural healing process of the skin, the production of collagen and elastin will be stimulated and will give a lifting effect to the skin.
Ultrasounds penetrate in different depths depending on the areas to be treated and the needs of the client's skin (from 1.5mm to 13mm)
The deeper ones of 13 mm will destroy localized fat cells and act on sagging, whether they are on the body or face (thighs, double chin, etc.).
The shallower ones (1.5 mm) will act on the superficial dermis and the epidermis to treat dilated pores and fine lines.

Number of sessions?
Face :
One session is enough for a real result . If the skin is more sagging, 2 sessions will be necessary spaced 3 to 6 months apart.
Results
The results are obtained, for the most part, immediately after the treatment.
improvement is more and more visible after 2 or even 3 months because it takes some time for the collagen to be produced in greater quantity.
After 3 months , we can clearly see the final result.
The final results last between 18 and 24 months.
Before the session
A consultation is necessary in order to examine the areas to be treated and to find out more about your motivations. The practitioner will make his diagnosis and inform the patient about the Hifu-4D treatment.
A consent form will be read and signed by the patient containing the principles of the Hifu-4D technique as well as the contraindications.
It is strongly advised to take an anti-inflammatory 1 hour before the session in order to be able to support the treatment comfortably.
The practitioner will take photos of the areas concerned in order to be able to concretely visualize the before-after result (subject to the patient's agreement).
Course of the session
Thanks to the contact gel applied to the treated areas, the treatment is more pleasant and allows better adhesion of the cartridges to the skin and better penetration of ultrasound into the skin.
Once the areas have been delineated and the gel applied, the practitioner repeatedly moves over the skin using cartridges to send impacts to different depths in the skin.
Small tingling and a feeling of warmth is felt during the session.
A session lasts approximately between 45 and 90 minutes depending on the areas to be treated (45 to 60 minutes for the face).
At the end of the treatment, a collagen-based cream will be applied to nourish and preserve the skin.
After the session
Slight redness may appear for 1 hour after the treatment but these disappear very quickly. The redness indicates that the collagen regeneration process has begun.
Due to a greater sensitivity of the quality of the skin, some patients may present small hematomas which disappear a week after the treatment.
Since the collagen and elastin have been stimulated, a tightening sensation in the skin can be felt for a few days after the treatment as well as a sensitivity to the touch. This is normal.
This care does not require any social eviction. You can very well show up for an important appointment the next day , expose yourself to the sun but on condition of applying a protection factor of 50.
You will also be able to apply make-up on your face without any problem as soon as you leave and thus resume the course of your usual activities.
