New Delhi: As we age, keeping our skin looking firm, smooth, and youthful becomes a priority for many of us. While there are various options available at skin clinics for anti-aging and skin tightening, surgical facelifts are not always ideal. solution This is where HIFU (High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound) technology comes in, offering a safe and effective non-surgical option for skin tightening.
What is HIFU?
In an interaction with News9Live, Dr Ashwini Modi, Consultant Dermatologist and Trichologist, Sentra Clinic, Mumbai, explained what HIFU is and how it can revolutionise anti-aging treatments.
HIFU is a cutting-edge technology that uses ultrasound waves to target and heat the deep layers of the skin, stimulating collagen production and resulting in a firmer and more toned appearance. Unlike traditional facelifts, HIFU is a non-invasive treatment that doesn’t require any incisions or downtime. Instead, it delivers strong energy to the skin’s deeper layers, bypassing the upper layers of the skin to prevent any damage to the surface.
While there are other non-surgical options available for anti-aging and skin tightening, such as Botox, dermal fillers, and chemical peels, HIFU stands out as a unique and effective option for those looking to improve their skin’s firmness and elasticity. These treatments can help to reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and sagging skin but often require multiple appointments and touch-ups. HIFU, on the other hand, offers long-lasting results with just one session. Not only is HIFU a convenient and effective treatment option for those seeking younger-looking skin, but it’s also completely safe and non-invasive. It’s intended for individuals with mild to moderate skin laxity and patients looking for a natural approach to anti-aging.
As more people seek non-surgical alternatives for skin tightening, HIFU proves itself to be a promising option. Its ability to target and stimulate collagen in the skin’s deeper layers makes it an attractive choice for those looking for safe and effective long-term results. If you’re considering HIFU, be sure to talk with an experienced specialist who can recommend the best treatment options for you.
Treatments with HIFU are painless. However, some patients may experience tingling during the procedure. One could suffer some swelling and numbness right after the therapy, but these effects usually go away quickly. After the procedure, the skin typically seems smoother or firmer.

The cartridges of Ultracel Q+ target a thin fascia layer called SMAS (Superficial Musculo — Aponeurotic System) by coagulating and transferring heat which makes skin tightening effect as well as collagen denaturation and regeneration.
Ultracel Q+ is used to treat various areas of the face and neck to reduce sagging skin and wrinkles. It can also be used on other parts of the body. Some of the advantages of this HIFU for skin tightening include non -invasiveness, minimal downtime & long-lasting results.
