HIFU (High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound) is a non-invasive treatment that uses focused ultrasound energy to heat the deep layers of skin, triggering collagen production and firming sagging tissue. The ultrasound waves precisely target 3–4.5mm below the surface, promoting a natural lifting and tightening effect over weeks to months without damaging the upper skin.
HIFU addresses mild to moderate skin laxity, jawline definition, lifting of brows, cheeks, and eyelids, as well as reduction of neck wrinkles and “turkey neck”. It also smooths fine lines and enhances facial contours, providing a rejuvenated and youthful appearance. Results are seen on both the face and targeted body areas.

The HIFU procedure is virtually painless, requiring no incisions or anesthesia, with most sessions completed within 30–90 minutes depending on the area. Patients may feel mild tingling or heat during treatment, but there’s little to no discomfort afterward, and normal activities can be resumed immediately.
Visible lifting and tightening appear gradually over 2–3 months as new collagen forms and may continue to improve for up to 6 months. HIFU is FDA-approved, has a strong safety profile, and rarely causes side effects beyond temporary redness or mild swelling. Long-lasting effects may persist for one to two years, with maintenance sessions as advised. Cutis ensures personalized aftercare and follow-up to maximize natural, long-lasting results.
