HIFU GONE WRONG _ IS IT POSSIBLE?
In my experience, the number one reason for a HIFU treatment gone wrong, is incorrect cartridge selection by the practitioner.
In my opinion, (over 3000 treatments done in my career) HIFU targets and heats up the skin at very specific depths, itâs essential that the practitioner chooses the right cartridge depth, to suit each area of the face, and itâs tailored to each client. One of the biggest risks is, that if the wrong depth cartridge is chosen, then the results will be poor. The biggest error is where a cartridge that reaches the fat cells in the skin is chosen for a slim faced client (as an example), and the result is that fat cells are targeted and destroyed- causing a client to lose volume, and end up looking sunken and gaunt. The energy level matters too â treating too deep, at high energy levels will increase the risks.
For some clients â they want to target excess volume in areas such as the jowls, but for clients with slim faces, we do not want to be losing volume! We also donât want to be using the same cartridge around the eyes and forehead, that weâd use along the jawline and those aforementioned saggy jowls â this unnecessarily, will be knowing the correct depth, exact heating depths, all play into what your treatment goal is, and the correct depth to treat, is essential to ensure you have an amazing result.
If your practitioner has alot of experience, has been trained and/or worked alongside medical experts, then youâre going to love the way HIFU lifts & tightens your skin, without the need for a face lift!
* Just remember this is NOT a point and shoot system, real damage to the skin can happen, and sometimes one does not understand that so please do your research.
