HIFU Treatment to lift, firm and tighten
HIFU treatments will help to give your skin back its elasticity and create a naturally more youthful appearance. Give skin back its snap. Treat the signs of ageing with a HIFU Facial non-surgical facelift. Read our article HIFU vs Surgery.
What is HIFU Treatment?
HIFU uses High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound. The ultrasound energy is focused at specific skin depths, creating heat. This heat damages targeted skin cells, causing the body to repair them by increasing collagen production in the dermis layers. Collagen is a substance in the skin that gives it structure and elasticity. The heat produced also causes a contraction in the deep SMAS layer of the skin, causing structural tightening. The effect produced is a Natural facelift without Surgery!
A HIFU Facial can treat various concerns
HIFU Machine
We use the latest technology, the Focus Dual from Lynton Lasers, a world-leading British company. HIFU treatment using the Focus Dual is one of few non-surgical treatments that can target every layer of the skin, including the deep SMAS layer previously only accessible via surgery.
HIFU Before and After
Results can vary depending on skin condition and underlying factors such as UV exposure, age, diet and daily skincare. Many people will see natural skin tightening over 2-3 months following treatment. Here is an example before and after photoset from one of our customers.

HIFU in Somerset
The Focus dual has 3 cartridges that focus on the major skin layers. The cartridges are gently pressed onto the skin, and a row of gentle pinpricks can be felt as a treatment line is created. Where the ultrasound waves are focused, heat is generated, tightening and promoting collagen production. These two effects help firm and tighten loose skin, resulting in a natural lift.

HIFU Safety
The Focus Dual has been designed to reduce discomfort using “Safety Assist Transducer Technology”.
Traditional HIFU can be very painful as the ultrasound heats all the skin layers. Using the FOCUS DUAL, we can target specific depths using Safety Assist Transducer Technology without causing excessive heat and discomfort to other layers. The result is little to no downtime. If you are concerned about possible side effects associated with HIFU, read our blog HIFU Risks.
With our Safety Assisted Transducer technology, heat is only concentrated at the specific depth being targeted, giving you a much more comfortable experience.
