HIFU Treatment in Bangalore
HIFU Treatment
High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) is a non-invasive, advanced aesthetic procedure used for skin tightening, lifting, and anti-ageing. At SurgiDerma, HIFU treatment is designed for individuals seeking a safe, non-surgical alternative to facelift procedures. This advanced ultrasound technology targets deeper layers of the skin, stimulating collagen production and resulting in firmer, youthful-looking skin over time.
HIFU is ideal for treating sagging skin, fine lines, and wrinkles, and is most commonly used on the face, neck, and décolletage.
HIFU Treatment Procedure
HIFU delivers focused ultrasound energy deep into the skin layers—specifically the SMAS (Superficial Musculo-Aponeurotic System) layer—without harming the surface. This stimulates the natural regeneration of collagen, leading to a gradual lifting and tightening of the skin.
Procedure Steps:
-
The treatment area is cleansed and ultrasound gel is applied.
-
A handheld HIFU device is used to deliver ultrasound energy at precise depths.
-
The procedure takes approximately 30 to 90 minutes, depending on the area treated.
HIFU does not require any downtime, allowing patients to resume normal activities immediately after the session.

Potential Risks and Side Effects
While HIFU is generally safe and well-tolerated, minor side effects may occur in some individuals, including:
-
Mild redness or swelling
-
Tingling or sensitivity in treated areas
-
Temporary discomfort during or after the procedure
These symptoms typically resolve within a few hours to a couple of days. It is important to have your treatment performed by an experienced dermatologist or cosmetic specialist to minimize risks and ensure effective results.
Results and Expectations
The effects of HIFU become noticeable gradually, with optimal results typically visible after 2 to 3 months as new collagen develops. Some patients may experience continued improvement for up to 6 months post-treatment.
The longevity of results may vary depending on skin condition, lifestyle, and age. Maintenance treatments once or twice a year are often recommended to sustain results.
