š¬ HIFU works beneath the surface. But what actually happens there?
High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound delivers ultrasound energy to selected depths beneath the skin, where the energy converges at focal points and produces controlled thermal effectsāwhile the skin surface remains largely intact.
That controlled response is only the beginning.
Over the following weeks and months, the tissue-repair process can involve collagen remodeling and reorganization, which is why changes from HIFU are typically progressive rather than instant.
Different devices and cartridges can target different depths, making anatomy, energy delivery, treatment depth and patient selection important parts of treatment planning.
The treatment session ends.
The biology continues. š¬
