Body HIFU

Address body laxity
with a body-firming treatment

This non-surgical body-contouring treatment delivers high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) to the fat layer 8 mm or 13 mm below the skin. It targets fat precisely to tighten and contour the body while avoiding surrounding skin and muscle. Fat cells are said to undergo apoptosis when heated to 42–45°C for 30 minutes. Our HIFU can deliver a focal temperature of approximately 70°C, destroying fat cells in around 0.05 seconds. The damaged fat is processed by macrophages and eliminated as waste over about 1–2 months. Much body laxity is associated with deterioration of fibrous tissue. Heating the fat layer damages both fat cells and nearby collagen fibers. Fibroblasts then rebuild stronger collagen fibers to repair this damage, helping tighten the treated area and improve laxity.

  • For fine lines and pores
  • Improving skin laxity
  • More effective tightening

Focused ultrasound delivers heat precisely to the target, raising the temperature to destroy fat cells. It targets the SMAS layer associated with laxity and helps the body eliminate damaged fat cells.

Treatment process

Consultation → Pain-relieving cream if requested (20 minutes) →
HIFU (approximately 60 minutes per area; timing varies by treatment site).

Treatment frequency

Conventional devices often required weekly visits,
but HIFU's higher output allows treatment once or twice a month.
Allow at least two weeks between HIFU treatments on the same area.

Downtime

Approximately 1–2 weeks.
Effects are most noticeable once the downtime has settled.

Pain

Muscle soreness, tightness, or heaviness in the treated area generally settles within 1–2 weeks.

Precautions

As absorption is said to increase approximately 2–3 times after treatment, avoid eating for 2–3 hours afterward.
Drinking plenty of water is also recommended to support the effects of HIFU.
It supports digestion and the removal of waste from the body.
