About Treatment
3D-HIFU is the latest technology used to target specific focused areas of fat in the fastest possible treatment time.
Areas that can be improved with this treatment
Abdomen, Hips, Thighs, Buttocks, Flanks
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).
Benefit
Pockets of stubborn Fat, Body Sculpting, Targeted Fat Reduction.
