Traditional HIFU had a limit on the depths of the skin tissue it could reach, leaving gaps of depths untreated. Although for many people the traditional HIFU had fantastic results, HIFU by NBSkin uses new advanced technology that allows the ultrasound waves to reach each layer of the skin at 0.5mm increments. This new technology means more customisable treatments for each individual patient, leading to better long-lasting results.

While HIFU by NKSkin can have dramatic lifting results, It is not a direct alternative for a facelift. However, it is an incredible option for those who don’t want to undergo surgery.

At NBSkin we offer two types of HIFU, Glow and Ultimate. The difference between these treatments is the depth at which the ultrasound waves work.

HIFU ULTIMATEOur HIFU Ultimate treatment works deep into the SMAS layer of the skin, as deep as where a surgical facelift would occur. This treatment works to reshape and lift the skin and tissue. This will have the most dramatic impact on a patient and will last up to 12 months depending on the patient’s chronological age, skin regime and health and lifestyle issues.  We recommend this treatment for patients who are experiencing skin laxity issues, deep wrinkles, and a loss of collagen.HIFU GLOWOur HIFU Glow treatment, while does not work as deep as our HIFU Ultimate, induces collagen production in the skin, which improves fine lines, and refines skin texture. This treatment can be expected to last 3-4 months, we recommend this for younger patients who don’t yet have significant skin laxity (sagging) issues. Our Glow treatment is also excellent as a boost to clients who have had an ultimate treatment.

HIFU by NBSkin is painless. Patients who have previously had traditional forms of HIFU might remember discomfort during treatments, however with the new technology you can expect to feel no pain. You will feel the device move over your skin, with a warming effect at precise points, this is a positive and temporary signal that the collagen-building process has been initiated.

This depends on the area being treated, however, on average, the treatment will take 50 minutes. We can treat just the face, just the neck or the face, neck, and, decolletage.

Often described as a lunchtime facial, there is minimum recovery from this treatment. Patients with sensitive skin may have some redness, however, the majority of people experience no symptoms post-treatment, other than the desired lifting and anti-aging results. Many clients say that they can feel the tightening of the treatment of straight away, which to some way feel a little strange.
