High Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HI-FU) Cheek
High Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HI-FU) Cheek
The area most affected by the problems that arise over time is undoubtedly our face. Time, aging, gravity, genetic inheritance, lifestyle, dietary habits and other environmental factors that negatively affect skin health can cause sagging and loosening in the face area.
Advanced technology applications, which have started to be used with the changing aesthetic perception, have brought along alternative rejuvenation options that are painless, comfortable, without side effects and with high permanence. Non-surgical rejuvenation applications, which offer effective solutions to permanent and skin problems in a short time to people who do not want to have a surgical operation, are accepted as a convenience offered by technological opportunities to the aesthetic world.
Many of these treatments are effective in the superficial layers of the skin. Positive effects such as brightness, vitality and reduction of fine wrinkles can be obtained on the skin. However, there is a need for an application that will affect the deeper layers and penetrate the lower layers of the skin for a tightening and tightness effect. The most preferred treatment method that can show this effect is Focused Ultrasound (HI-FU) application.
What is Focused Ultrasound (HI-FU)?
HIFU (High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound), which stands for High Intensity Focused Ultrasound Energy, is an innovative treatment method that triggers collagen production in the subcutaneous tissues by using Ultracel sound waves, thus creating tightening and tension in the face, neck and décolleté area.
HI-FU treatment, which is one of the most effective and successful methods among non-surgical facial rejuvenation applications, whose reliability has been proven by scientific studies, uses ultrasound as energy, that is, a sound energy that is too high for our ears to hear.
How is Focused Ultrasound (HI-FU) Applied?
The sound waves produced by Ultracel are focused on targets at the desired depth in the lower layers of the skin, subcutaneous fat and membranous muscle layers called SMAS (fascia tissue), without damaging the skin surface, and heat damage is achieved. A tauter skin is obtained by tightening the SMAS with the heat damage, thinning effect in the fat tissue and lifting effect with the restructured collagen layer in the skin.
HI-FU application does not require anesthesia; It is carried out by touching the ultrasound head to the skin. Other methods applied in skin rejuvenation cannot go below the superficial layer of the skin. HI-FU technology makes it possible to reach the deep layers of the skin 3 - 4.5 mm below.
Fine wrinkles around the eyes and lips are removed with 1.5 - 2 mm nozzles, except for the nozzles with a range of 3 - 4.5 mm in the face area. For the body, regional sagging is eliminated with 6 - 9 - 11- and 13-mm focused heads. HI-FU reaches the points at the desired depth, heats the subcutaneous connective tissues with the effect of focused intensified ultrasound, triggers subcutaneous recovery and new collagen tissue formation.
What Problems Does It Treat?
- Reducing facial volume (reducing cheek fullness, transition from square face to oval face),
- Correcting the deteriorated V line of the face,
- Loosening in the chin area, sagging,
- Looseness and sagging under the chin and jowl area,

To Whom Can It Be Applied?
Focused ultrasound is an application where there is no age scale. It can be applied to anyone who wants to tighten and tighten the skin on the face, neck and décolleté. It is generally preferred by people aged 30 and over.
Wo Who It Is Not Applicable?
- People with active skin infections on the face,
- to pregnant women,
- People with metal stents in their body,
- For those with epilepsy and diabetes.
Is Pain / Pain Felt During the Application?
It is not a painful procedure. However, a very slight pain may be felt in the deep tissue during the application. During the application, the skin surface is not affected, only a temporary redness occurs on the skin; therefore it does not affect daily life. It is recommended not to be exposed to sunlight for a day after the procedure, not to lie on your face, and to avoid extremely hot environments such as Turkish bath or sauna.
When Will Treatment Results Appear?
After the procedure, the regeneration process begins; Even at the first moment, a noticeable improvement is noticed. However, the full effect is seen after the damaged tissue under the skin begins to heal. This covers a period of approximately 90 days.
What are the Advantages of the Application?
- Since the application does not have any side effects, there is no negative reaction or damage to the skin,
- After the application, the person can easily return to his work and daily activities,
- Since HI-FU triggers collagen formation, its effect is long-lasting (continues for 12-18 months),
- Applicable in all seasons,
- Provides face lift success without the need for any surgical intervention or injection,
- No pre-treatment or post-procedure care is required,
- Ultrasound energy is a reliable application as it is a method used for both diagnosis and treatment for about 40 years.
What is HI-FU Linear?
HI-FU is an ultrasound procedure performed with fractionally side-by-side applications of 1.5 mm, heating only a specific area, not the entire treatment area, to form a new tissue in these areas. HI-FU Linear, on the other hand, is a treatment option that provides a clearer result in a shorter time with lower energy by heating the entire treatment area, not a specific area.
When the HI-FU Linear application is applied to the deep tissue, it is possible to obtain a stretch similar to the thread lift treatment. When more superficial heads are used, it appears in addition to laser treatments and needle radiofrequency treatments, in reducing scars such as skin tightening and acne scars. In some cases where laser cannot be used, it is an alternative treatment especially for melasma. In HI-FU Linear application, a single session treatment usually gives results. However, in the evaluation made at the end of 3 months, if the dermatologist deems it necessary, additional sessions can be applied. The full permanence of the results occurs in the range of 2-3 months.
