Ultraformer 3 HIFU
What is Ultraformer 3 HIFU?
Ultraformer 3 is a 3rd generation high intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) machine that uses ultrasound energy for non-surgical face lifting and skin tightening. It is our first choice for face lifting.
The Ultraformer III HIFU was chosen because of its peak power and stability, which is able to give higher energy output, and thus better treatment efficacy. It effectively stimulates collagen and elastin production, which are essential for restoring youthful skin tightness and firmness.
How does Ultraformer HIFU work?
Heat is generated at that specific level, creating a thermal coagulation process that promotes collagen stimulation. This stimulates collagen fibres to thicken and shorten, producing a tightening and lifting effect of the skin.
Transducers used: Using different depths of probes, we target different layers of the skin 4.5mm: SMAS layer, the same layer that plastic surgeons operate on when performing facelift. 3.0mm: Deep dermis tightening. 2.0mm: Eyebags around the eyes, fine lines, Crows feet and superficial dermis.
HIFU Lifting The Superficial Muscular Aponeurotic System (SMAS) layer is specifically targeted with the 4.5mm transducer. The SMAS layer is a crucial support structure of the face. This is the layer that plastic surgeons target when performing facelifts in surgery. The Ultraformer 3 HIFU effectively targets facial wrinkles and sagging skin by stimulating collagen production.
HIFU Face Slimming For younger patients who prefer facial slimming instead of facelifting, Ultraformer 3 HIFU is able to melt facial fats, helping to reduce the appearance of chubby cheeks for a more contoured, V shaped face. In our clinic, HIFU face slimming is recommended to be combined with jaw slimming btx as well as Chin and Jawline Fillers for optimal results.
HIFU Body contouring Besides skin tightening, the cartridges with deeper depth 13mm applied to the skin can kill fat cells which are then cleared by the body’s lymphatic system naturally. This is often used in the abdominal and flanks area for body contouring. It can also reduce cellulite in the arms and legs area.
