What Is HIFU Treatment?
HIFU treatment, a non-invasive skin-rejuvenation procedure, makes use of high-intensity focused ultrasound energy to correct facial ageing signs like sagging skin and double chin by targeting the deeper layers of the skin. This promotes the production of collagen and improves the skin’s firmness and elasticity. Leading dermatologists recommend it as a non-surgical facelift.
How Does It Work?
HIFU treatment uses focused ultrasound energy to penetrate deep into the skin’s layers and create tiny thermal coagulation points. This stimulates the body’s natural healing response and increases collagen production, resulting in skin tightening and rejuvenation.

HIFU Treatment Procedure
Dermatologists at Oliva specialise in performing HIFU treatment following strict protocols and global safety standards. The treatment procedure includes three phases, namely pre-treatment, during treatment and post treatment phase. Let’s look at each phase one by one.
Pre-treatment
Embark on your HIFU treatment journey with a comprehensive skin evaluation by our experienced dermatologists. They’ll meticulously analyse your skin condition, assess ageing concerns, and determine the severity. Based on this assessment, they will craft a personalised treatment plan, integrating HIFU either independently or in combination with other anti-ageing prcedures. Our medical team will recommend the optimal number of sessions needed for your desired outcomes. Plus, they’ll guide you through essential pre-care instructions to ensure your skin is primed for the treatment ahead.
During Treatment
When it’s time for your treatment, our certified aesthetic technicians will ready the treatment area by gently removing any makeup or lotions. Next, they’ll apply a numbing gel to ensure your comfort during the procedure. Using a handheld device that emits ultrasound energy, our experienced doctors will then perform the treatment.
Post Treatment
In the final stage of the treatment, our certified aesthetic technicians will soothe any discomfort with a cool compress. While some mild redness and swelling may occur in the treated area, this typically subsides within a few hours. Your dermatologist at Oliva will provide detailed post-care instructions and recommend topical applications and medications to promote skin healing.
