WHAT IS HIFU Treatment ?
HIFU, or High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound, is a non-invasive cosmetic facial treatment available at Sthetics Med Spa.

HIFU has gained popularity for its ability to deliver results similar to a facelift, all without the need for surgical intervention. It has become a trendsetter in the world of non-invasive cosmetic treatments, offering individuals the opportunity to rejuvenate and tighten their skin without going under the knife.

How It Works
Our HIFU treatment process is a straightforward and comfortable experience:
Cleansing and Gel Application:
We initiate the HIFU treatment by thoroughly cleaning the targeted area. A specialized gel is applied to ensure optimal contact and transmission of ultrasound waves.
Ultrasound Emission:
A handheld device emitting ultrasound waves in short bursts is used to deliver the treatment. These waves work to stimulate collagen production and promote skin tightening.
Pain Management:
To enhance your comfort during the procedure, we may apply local anesthesia to prevent mild pain. Over-the-counter pain relievers like ibuprofen and acetaminophen can also be taken as needed.
Swift Recovery:
Following the session, there’s no need for a recovery period. You can promptly return to your daily activities without downtime.
Number of Sessions:
The number of recommended sessions can vary depending on the desired results. Typically, 1 to 6 sessions may be required to achieve your specific goals.

F.A.Q
Before the treatment:
- Don’t expose your skin to the sun since it can get burned. Sunburned or recently tanned skin can’t be treated in a facial California clinic or spa.
- Don’t apply chemicals that can irritate your skin.
- You might need to stop if you’re taking antibiotics because these can cause your skin to be more sensitive to light.
- You shouldn’t have a cold sore or fever since this will affect the treatment.
After the treatment:
- Don’t use an ice pack to get the best results. Taking medications post-treatment is not needed.
- Wax, tweeze, or use depilatory creams 3 days after the treatment
- Don’t exercise or use steam rooms, saunas, or hot tubs after the treatment.
- Use a non-exfoliant cleaner and mild moisturizer if you’ve had HIFU on your face. You can resume your skincare routine the following day.
- Use skin irritants such as benzoyl peroxide, retinol, vitamin C, and glycolic or salicylic acids 3 days after the treatment.
- Use sunblock with SPF 30 or higher and Zinc Oxide immediately. Apply it every day to prevent irritation and get the best results.
- Follow the post-treatment regimen to maximize your treatment and prevent complications.
HIFU sessions can be done every 2 to 8 weeks. Each session will last for 60 minutes. This is to give your skin ample time to heal between treatments. After the set of treatments is given, the result can be seen for around 1 year. It’s best to have a retouch session once a year to maintain the results you want.
Yes, it can. Aside from destroying fat, a HIFU treatment can improve collagen production. As a result, you can get tighter and firmer skin.
When you’ve just had your Botox, you can wait for 4 weeks before having a HIFU treatment. This is to give the Botox injection enough time to settle on your skin. It’s best to avoid having fillers or injectables 7 days after the treatment.
