HIFU Treatment or High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound Treatment is a non-invasive and non-surgical facelift. The high-intensity ultrasound penetrates the skin and stimulates collagen production. As a result, it truly makes its mark by lifting and tightening the facial and body contours. HIFU in Dubai is a quick and safe procedure that does not require extensive downtime afterward.

What is HIFU Non-Surgical Facelift?
HIFU Facial or Ulthera HIFU is a non-surgical and non-invasive facelift that uses ultrasound waves for tightening and lifting the skin. It uses high-intensity focused ultrasound to revive and rejuvenate the skin.
The high-intensity ultrasound bypasses the skin’s surface and penetrates its inner layer. It directs ultrasound energy, particularly into the deep tissues and muscles where collagen is produced. Due to the energy, collagen starts reviving, and as a result, the skin tissue becomes rejuvenated.
Different types of machines are available for this treatment, but HIFU 3D and HIFU 4D are generally used. Both machines provide exceptional results for lifting the sagging skin.

Pre-Procedure Care
Generally, a specialist guides the patients on how to prepare for the treatment during the initial consultation. However, some general pre-procedure instructions are as follows:
- HIFU facelifts are done at clinics on an outpatient basis, so candidates do not need to prepare for an overnight stay.
- Candidates should avoid eating or drinking about 5-6 hours before the procedure.
- The specialist guides candidates about what to eat and what not to eat before the procedure.
- Wear comfortable clothes on the day of treatment to avoid any discomfort.
- Some candidates may need an anti-clotting injection before the procedure to prevent blood clotting.
Hifu Procedure
Before the procedure starts, the candidate should remove any make-up and other facial products. Generally, the procedure does not require anesthesia, but some candidates may request topical anesthesia to avoid any discomfort. HIFU Non-Surgical Facelift is a quick and safe procedure that takes about 90 minutes to complete.
During the procedure, an ultrasonic device is passed over the skin. The HIFU Treatment uses ultrasound energy to stimulate collagen production in the deep dermal and subdermal levels. This high-intensity frequency ultrasound targets the skin’s deep layer, tightening the muscle and boosting collagen. It causes smaller-scale damage to that tissue. As the tissue mends, it expands collagen, resulting in a tightening impact on the skin.
During the treatment, candidates may feel slight hot pulses of ultrasound on the skin. In comparison to the traditional machines, the modern HIFU machines are feasible and comfortable.
Post-Procedure Care
Some general post-procedure instructions for HIFU Facial are as follows:
- Rest for a few hours before stepping out in the sun.
- Apply sunscreen when going out in the sun.
- Take the prescribed pain relief medications in case of pain or discomfort.
- Regularly take antibiotics to avoid any infection.
