HIFU Ultra 7D

HIFU (High Intensity Focused Ultrasound) treatment is a  sought-after lifting treatment for the face, neck & body without going under the knife.

HIFU Ultra 7D is the latest non-surgical technology using High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) and Micro-Macro Focused Ultrasound (MMFU) to deliver a non-invasive face, neck, and body lifting treatment. HIFU Ultra 7D also helps with lines, wrinkles, pores, skin tone, and laxity. One session can tighten and lift the skin, reduce the appearance of wrinkles and improve skin tone, providing visible results that will last up to 3 years.

HIFU Ultra 7D technology is unique in its ability to penetrate the dermis and the superficial muscular aponeurotic system (SMAS) layer, which is deeper than all other non-invasive treatments. The SMAS layer is the same area tightened during conventional surgery, however, unlike surgery, HIFU is more affordable and requires no downtime. 

KK1 Health & Beauty Med Spa will be providing HIFU Ultra 7D facial treatments.  HIFU Ultra 7D results are 92% effective with 97% client satisfaction and safety. The new MF2 cartridge allows our aestheticians to treat difficult-to-reach areas, such as around the eyes which cannot be treated effectively with generic HIFU.

Our Care

Prior to your MED: HIFU Ultra 7D treatment the following advice is recommended to ensure you gain the best possible results from the treatment and prevent any adverse reactions. The pre-care advice is as follows:

  • Increase water intake by at least 1.5 liters
  • Avoid any facial peels 4 weeks before treatment and microdermabrasion 2 weeks before treatment
  • Male clients are recommended to come clean-shaven to their appointment
  • We cannot provide the HIFU treatment if you have previously had threads within the last year
  • Avoid any exfoliation or chemical peels for 7 days prior to your treatment
  • Avoid alcohol consumption for a minimum of 48 hours prior to your appointment
  • Allow 2 weeks before IPL treatments in the area that you wish to have treated
  • Avoid sun-beds or direct UV exposure for a minimum of 1 week prior to your appointment
  • Avoid any active skin care, for example, AHA's and BHA, and any exfoliating products 5 days pre and post-treatment
  • If you have any open sores, acne, infection, or skin sensitivity in the area we cannot treat them with HIFU

We would recommend that you take some painkillers before your appointment as this can help reduce any pain from the treatment. Acetaminophen is the one we would recommend, and we would advise taking this 1 hour before your HIFU appointment. 

After your MED: HIFU Ultra 7D treatment the following advice is recommended, this will ensure you gain the best possible results from the treatment and prevent any adverse reactions. The aftercare advice is as follows:

  • Avoid alcohol consumption for a minimum of 48 hours prior to your appointment.
  • Avoid hot water, heat treatments (saunas, steam rooms, etc), or extreme cold for 24 hours.
  • Drink 2 – 3 liters of water daily, keep a large bottle with you at all times and infuse with lemons and limes for flavor, this will help hydrate the skin and help to flush out toxins.
  • Avoid sun-beds or direct UV exposure for a minimum of 1 week and apply SPF daily to protect the skin.
  • KK1 will have different skincare to help after your HIFU treatment, the skin care should be used after your treatment daily and the directions on how to use each product can be found on the bottle/packaging.
  • If you are using the Home Use Skin Rejuvenation RF & EMS Machine, you should do so after 24 hours and use it as directed by your Aesthetic Practitioner, if you are unsure please do not call and email the clinic so that the Practitioner can call you.
  • The skin may feel dry after the treatment, therefore you should apply a replenishing/hydrating mask three times a week or apply hyaluronic acid
  • Do not take aspirin or other anticoagulant medications as this can hinder the healing process
  • Normal cleansing regimes can be resumed after 24 hours, although avoid using scented or fragranced products around the treatment area unless you are using the skincare given to you at the clinic
  • Allow 2 weeks before continuing any laser/IPL treatments in the area that you had treated

* 3 – 6 months is the estimated time to see the maximum results, however, we have had clients report good results after only 4 – 6 weeks.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Why should I use HIFU?

As a completely non-surgical, non-invasive procedure, High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound offers patients many benefits over other procedures:

  • Clinically Proven

  • Safe and Effective
  • Cost Effective Alternative to a Surgical Face Lift
  • No Need for Anaesthesia or Sedation

With the advantage of three depth cartridges (1.5mm, 3mm, and 4.5mm), HIFU has the capability of penetrating to depths only previously possible with surgery. Our HIFU also has cartridges for 7 & 13mm depth penetration, which can be used for the abdomen, flanks, arms & thighs. 

What happens before HIFU treatment?

A free, no-obligation consultation is given where we check your suitability for the procedure and assess your requirements so that we can provide a solution for you. We then discuss realistic results and any other relevant information. We also obtain your informed consent before starting HIFU treatment.  

This depends on the age and skin of the person being treated, however one treatment is usually sufficient to provide good results for roughly one year (although this varies).
