Treatment Overview
What does HIFU feel like?
You may experience slight discomfort during an HIFU procedure. Some people describe it as tiny electric pulses or a light prickly sensation. If you're worried about pain, your doctor may suggest taking acetaminophen (Tylenol) or a nonsteroidal anti- inflammatory drug (NSAID), such as ibuprofen (Advil), prior to treatment. Immediately after the treatment, you may experience mild redness or swelling, which will gradually recede over the next few hours.
HIFU for face procedure?
There's no special preparation needed before having an HIFU procedure. You should remove all makeup and skin care products from the target area before treatment. Here's what to expect at your appointment: 1. A physician or technician first cleans the target area. 2. They may apply a topical anesthetic cream before starting. 3. The physician or technician then applies an ultrasound gel. 4. The HIFU device is placed against the skin. 5. Using an ultrasound viewer, the physician or technician adjusts the device to the right setting. 6. Ultrasound energy is then delivered to the target area in short pulses for roughly 30 to 90 minutes. 7. The device is removed. 8. If additional treatments are needed, you will schedule the next treatment. While the ultrasound energy is being applied, you might feel heat and tingling. You can take a pain medication if it's bothersome.
HIFU treatment for face side effects
HIFU is considered very safe if performed by a trained and qualified professional. The best part about this treatment is that you're able to resume your normal activities immediately after you leave the provider's office. Some slight redness or swelling may occur, but it should subside quickly. A light tingling sensation of the treated area may persist for a few weeks. Rarely, you
may experience temporary numbness or bruising, but these side effects usually go away after a few days.
