Ultrasound Skin Lifting Treatment at Dr Tyng Tan Aesthetics and Hair Clinic

Ultrasound Skin Lifting Treatment is a combination therapy of high intensity focal ultrasound (HIFU) and cold laser, two of the notable treatments available today. This is a promising alternative for those who are not ready or would prefer not to go under the knife for a facelift.

The Problem

The goal of skin rejuvenation and contouring is to achieve natural-looking results in a less invasive way. However, with some of the nonsurgical treatments out there, many find it to be ineffective and sometimes uncomfortable. Furthermore, there are also treatments that are particularly risky, especially if done by inexperienced personnel.

The Treatment

Ultrasound Skin Lifting Treatment provides faster treatment and targeting of submental fat, facial lifting and rejuvenation. It stimulates bio-stimulation and enhances skin radiance which is a good countermeasure for collagen decline. It is efficient in addressing wrinkled, sagged, and loose skin.

It uses high-intensity focal ultrasound (HIFU) in a fractionated mode that can reach up to 5mm in depth to promote facial remodelling and lifting. Adding to that it also uses cold laser at 635 nm (nanometer) for bio-stimulation to enhance skin radiance.

Due to the fractionated mode in which the energy is delivered, the treatment does not require anaesthetics as it is virtually painless. Unlike lasers and radiofrequency which penetrate the skin from the outside-in, this device generates minimal heat into the skin from the inside-out.

The Results

The actual result may vary for each patient depending on their reaction to the treatment. It is not an instant fix since the result will gradually become evident after 2-3 months.

Downtime

One of the positive points about the Ultrasound Skin Lifting Treatment is that it doesn’t require any downtime. This in-office procedure allows you to return to your daily routine right after treatment. There is no special aftercare required and it only takes about 15 minutes to 1 hour, depending on the areas that will be treated.

Complementary Treatments

Based on your skin concerns, we can create a package of services to complement this treatment. We have medical facials and other non-invasive skin tightening and brightening treatments, but we can best suggest this only after we can thoroughly assess your skin’s condition

Cost

The cost of a session depends on the area being treated. You can get a full list of prices after a consultation. Only after extensive evaluation can the doctor provide patients with an exact quotation since we customize our service to address each patient’s individual concerns.
