Aesthetic medicine employs two ultrasound types: High-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU), primarily for medical purposes, and Micro-focused ultrasound (MFU), which directs highly focused energy to a specific skin layer. By generating ultrasonic waves through a transducer and precisely selecting the frequency, high-intensity ultrasound waves are focused. This technology enhances collagen and elastin production, effectively addressing fine lines and wrinkles.

A HIFU facial employs ultrasound to generate heat deep within the skin. This controlled heat damages specific skin cells, prompting the body's natural repair process. Consequently, collagen production increases, benefiting cell regeneration. Collagen, essential for skin structure and elasticity, can be beneficial for skin tightening in various areas, including the neck, reduction of jowls, lifting of drooping eyelids or eyebrows, and the smoothing of facial wrinkles and chest skin.
