3D HI-FU

TECH EXPLAINED

3D HIFU is the latest technology used to target specific focused areas of fat in the fastest possible treatment time. This technology works by delivering focused energy at a depth of 1.3cm and 8mm to destroy fat cells. The high frequency of the ultrasound wave results in heating under the skin, effectively destroying the fat cells and tightening the skin in the area treated. The damaged cells are flushed away via a natural removal process through the lymphatic system that continues for up to 3 months.

How It Works?

The HIFU handpiece delivers focussed ultrasound waves to a precise depth to cause Necrosis of the fat cell. The controlled movement of the handpiece results in a grid of treated fat cells. The high frequency of the ultrasound wave, results in rapid heating of the focal zone at 1.3cm and 8mm under the skin leaving the skins surface unaffected. However this energy increases in temperature as it gets deeper within the skin due to the energy of the HIFU causing cellular friction. Exposing the fat cell to this high temperature causes rapid cell death (necrosis).

Frequently Asked Questions

How many treatments are recommended? 

Only one treatment is required per area.

What Results Can I Expect from this treatment? 

Results can be seen from 2–4 months post treatment. The average reduction of the treatment area after just one single session is typically 2–4cm.

Can I combine 3D Cavitation with other treatments? 

3D-HIFU body is best for targeting stubborn pockets of fat, however if you wish to have more of an overall fat reduction treatment your therapist may recommend combining your 3D HIFU body treatment as part of a treatment course incorporating other technologies for a more complete fat reduction treatment. The beauty of 3D Lipo is that each technology can be combined to enable you to target your needs and devise a specific and bespoke treatment plan for you ensuring maximum results.

What will I experience during treatment? 

A handpiece will be placed on the skin, this is the handpiece used to target focussed energy to the fat cells. The handpiece is placed on the area of treatment and held there for approximately 2 minutes, this will be repeated 3 times per treatment area. During treatment, you may feel the warmth of the handpiece, and it some cases it may get slightly hot and uncomfortable. You may also feel a slight vibration and tingling sensation, although this is completely normal.

Due to the technology involved treatments can not be used whilst pregnant, recently giving birth or breast feeding. Those with heart condition including a pacemaker, thrombosis or thrombophlebitis, history of cancer, diabetes or epilepsy. Those on anticoagulant medication, skin thinning medication or auto immune conditions. Further restrictions may apply and we ask that you answer our questions honestly when booking your consultation to be able to give you a first class service.
