HIFU

HiFu (High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound) is a non-invasive treatment that uses ultrasound waves to target and heat up tissue in specific body areas. The ultrasound waves are focused on a small point within the tissue, creating a high level of heat that can destroy targeted cells without harming surrounding tissues.       

CFU technology is the evolution of the traditional HIFU technology that utilises centerless focused ultrasound that penetrates the area to be treated only at the chosen focal distance.

The fat cells affected give rise to an inflammatory reaction that triggers a healing process. Centerless focused ultrasound, in the aesthetic treatment of facial skin can be customised according to the needs of each individual.

The depth of action can reach the facial SMAS, the structure that covers the facial muscles and connects the facial muscles with the overlying dermis.

Key benefits of CFU (Centerless Focused Ultrasound):

  • Non-invasive treatment

  • Lifting effect on face & neck

  • Reduces wrinkles & treats acne scars

  • Stimulates natural tissue repair & regeneration

  • Eliminates localised fats

  • Safe & effective

  • Clinically tested results

DUOSHAPE (Cavitation Ultrasound, Radio-frequency, Vacuum)

Our most innovative and patented handpiece Duoshape, combines the action of three different technologies: Ultrasound, Radio-frequency and Vacuum, to reduce the appearance of cellulite and tighten the skin.

Cavitation uses high-frequency ultrasound waves to break down fat cells, which are then eliminated from the body through the lymphatic system.

Radio-frequency energy heats the skin to stimulate collagen production and tighten the skin. This helps to reduce the appearance of sagging skin and wrinkles.

Vacuum therapy is used to increase blood flow to the area being treated, which can help to reduce the appearance of cellulite and improve skin texture.

When combined, these three technologies work synergistically to improve the overall appearance of the skin, reduce the appearance of cellulite, and contour the body.  

Ideal to treat:

  • Cellulite

  • Skin tightening

  • Body toning

SKINTITE

A combination of Monopolar, Bipolar or Fractional Radio-frequency allows us to tailor the treatment for each patient, according to their needs, after careful consultation. We offer the latest Radiofrequency skin tightening treatments available, to challenge a wide array of skin concerns. The quick and painless treatment is highly effective in generating energy to heat up the tissue at a much deeper level, encouraging collagen production and elastin.

Fractional Radio-frequency treatments involve the use of a handheld device that emits controlled Radio-frequency energy in the form of microscopic needles. These needles create precise micro-injuries in the skin, which triggers the body's natural healing response and encourages collagen production. The treatment targets specific areas, leaving surrounding skin intact, which promotes faster healing and minimal downtime.

When it comes to the face and neck, fractional RF can address various concerns, such as:

  • Skin tightening: Fractional RF heats the deeper layers of the skin, promoting collagen contraction and stimulating new collagen production. This helps tighten loose or sagging skin, reducing the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines.

  • Scar reduction: Fractional RF can improve the appearance of certain types of scars, including acne scars or surgical scars. The treatment encourages collagen remodelling, resulting in smoother and more even-looking skin.

  • Texture improvement: If you have rough or uneven skin texture, fractional RF can help by promoting cellular turnover and stimulating collagen synthesis. This can result in smoother, more refined skin.

  • Skin rejuvenation: Fractional RF can provide overall skin rejuvenation by improving skin tone and reducing hyperpigmentation, age spots, and sun damage. The treatment can give the skin a more youthful and refreshed appearance.

Monopolar and bipolar radio-frequency are two different modes of delivering radio-frequency energy in aesthetic and medical treatments.

Monopolar Radiofrequency: In monopolar radiofrequency, the energy is delivered through a single electrode or handpiece. This electrode is applied to the treatment area, while a larger grounding pad is placed elsewhere on the body to complete the circuit. The radiofrequency energy travels from the active electrode through the targeted tissues and seeks the path of least resistance towards the grounding pad. This means that the energy passes through a larger area of tissue, including both the targeted area and the surrounding tissues.

Key features of monopolar radiofrequency include:

  • Greater depth of penetration: The energy can reach deeper layers of the skin and underlying tissues, making it suitable for treatments that require targeting deeper structures.

  • Wider treatment area: Due to the current seeking the path of least resistance, the treatment area is generally larger than the electrode size.

Bipolar Radiofrequency: In bipolar radiofrequency, the energy is delivered through two electrodes that are contained within a single handpiece. These electrodes are placed in close proximity to each other, allowing the radiofrequency energy to flow between them. Unlike monopolar radiofrequency, bipolar radiofrequency does not require a grounding pad because the energy is contained within the treatment area.

Key features of bipolar radiofrequency include:

  • Limited depth of penetration: The energy remains localized between the two electrodes, targeting the superficial layers of the skin and the tissues in close proximity.

  • Smaller treatment area: Since the energy is contained within the handpiece, the treatment area is generally smaller than in monopolar radiofrequency.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Yes, you will need to have a patch test at least 48 hours prior to the treatment.

  • In many cases, a treatment plan may involve two to three HIFU sessions spaced approximately four to six weeks apart. This spacing allows time for the skin to heal and for collagen production to occur. However, it's important to note that the exact number of treatments needed may vary based on individual factors and the specific areas being treated.

  • You may experience swelling, erythema (redness), tenderness and slight bruising after treatment for up to 10 days post-procedure. These symptoms are mild and temporary.

  • The answer varies depending on what the treatment is targeting. Typically it tale 1-2 hours for the full face and neck and 45 minutes to 1 hour for single areas.

  • Every client’s comfort threshold is different, and you may experience slight discomfort while the ultrasound energy is delivered. This is temporary, and the feelings you encounter are a positive sign that the process is working.

HIFU

  • Ultrasonic Cavitation is not a method of weight loss. It is designed to reshape the body and remove localized fat or cellulite. It is not a replacement for weight loss programs or regular exercise.

  • The number of cavitation sessions needed can vary depending on various factors, including the individual's specific goals, the targeted area, the amount of excess fat, and the response of the individual's body to the treatment. Typically, a series of cavitation sessions is recommended to achieve optimal results.

    On average, most professionals recommend a series of 6 to 12 sessions, spaced about 1 to 2 weeks apart. However, this can vary based on individual circumstances. Some individuals may start seeing noticeable improvements after a few sessions, while others may require more treatments to achieve their desired outcome.

  • The service is tailored to the individual. Generally, however, most treatments are between 45 minutes to 75 minutes long. Multiple areas of the body can be treated during one session.

  • Most people will have a noticeable reduction in their measurements after the very first treatment! The fat removal process continues for up to one week following treatment, so it may decrease further a few days afterwards. Note that results may vary due to differences in metabolisms.

  • You may feel a slight heat sensation or tingling, but otherwise, the treatment is painless.

  • Target areas may experience a little redness.

CAVITATION

  • RF Microneedling treats damaged and ageing skin including age spots, photodamage, acne scars, other scarring, enlarged pores, wrinkles, and stretch marks. The face, décolleté wrinkles and stretchmarks, crepey neck skin, loose skin, legs and arms, and even abdominal stretch marks can be treated. The result is smooth, even skin tone and texture and added firmness. It is also safe and effective for use on the delicate skin around the eyes, and upper lip.

  • Microneedling stimulates the production of new collagen to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and scars and induces new skin cell production which removes hyperpigmentation. The result is smoother, firmer and more evenly toned skin. The radiofrequency energy firms and tightens the skin from within further enhancing collagen remodelling. RF energy is a proven, non-invasive and safe method to tighten the skin by delivering high-intensity energy to the tissues. The result is lifted and tightened skin.

  • Good candidates must be in good health, have signs of skin ageing and have realistic expectations. RF Microneedling can treat all skin types and colors including tanned skin. People who have active cold sores, a skin infection, a skin disease such as psoriasis, are receiving chemo or radiation, take anticoagulant medications, are pregnant or have a history of poor scarring including keloid scars, or poor wounding are not good candidates.

  • You can expect there will be some inflammation, swelling and redness like a sunburn that can last for 24 – 48 hours after the procedure. There may be some minor pinpoint bleeding and possibly some bruising. You will be advised on how to care for your skin during healing. It is important to wear sunscreen and avoid sun exposure while you heal. We also advise you to avoid applying makeup for 24 hours.
