Fatigue and the marks of time show no mercy on our faces. The result: features sag, facial skin becomes less firm, and morale dips! To regain your smile and youthful exuberance, the HIFU aesthetic treatment can be of great assistance with its focused ultrasound system targeting the sagging skin of the face.
Firming the skin, a necessary beauty ritual
There’s no need to elaborate; the condition of your skin is indicative of your lifestyle as well as your health. Sometimes, the features of our face no longer reflect who we truly are: cheerful and full of life! The skin becomes less elastic and less toned. For young women, the face typically takes on an inverted triangle shape with the chin at the point and the cheekbones or eyebrows at the peaks. This attractive geometry tends to lose its definition over time.
Some women choose targeted massages to counteract the effects of time. This technique is essential for enhancing the effectiveness of cosmetic products. It’s a genuine facial workout that stimulates the muscles and skin of the face, especially when accompanied by creams rich in active ingredients.
Why choose the HIFU treatment?
This relatively recent treatment combats the sagging of facial skin. This device employs high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU). The ultrasonic energy will act on each layer of the skin: the epidermis, the deep dermis, and the muscles or fats, prompting the skin's fibroblasts to produce more collagen and elastic fibres. This will restore firmness and tonicity to the skin. This method can also target the hypodermis, meaning the fat around the double chin or prominent cheeks.
After agreeing with the patient on the area to be treated, the doctor applies an ultrasound gel to allow the ultrasound to penetrate the skin. Then, using the handpiece, they will draw well-defined lines. The impacts emitted by the device will create a point of skin retraction stimulated deep down and on the surface. If the session lasts between 45-60 minutes, it is painless and leaves no bruises. The face will simply appear rosier and firmer, and the lifting effect is generally optimal after three months.
The HIFU treatment is recommended for sagging neck and décolletage, drooping eyelids, sagging eyebrows, or malar bags (around the cheekbones). While results are visible from the first session, they will continue to improve over time. The lifting effect intensifies and fat cells are permanently destroyed.
Do not hesitate to consult if your sagging features tend to make you feel self-conscious. The HIFU treatment will be effective in assisting you in your quest for facial tonicity to regain its radiance and your dazzling smile!
