Before Your HIFU Treatment
To ensure the best possible results from your HIFU treatment, we recommend the following preparation steps:
- Avoid sun exposure and tanning for at least two weeks prior
- Stay well-hydrated in the days leading up to treatment
- Discontinue use of retinol products 5-7 days before
- Avoid blood-thinning medications and supplements (with doctor’s approval)
- Arrive with clean skin free of makeup or creams
- Inform your practitioner of any skin conditions or medications
After Your HIFU Treatment
For effective HIFU wrinkle reduction, we customise treatment parameters based on your unique skin condition. Following your treatment, these aftercare guidelines will help maximise your results:
- Gentle cleansing with mild products for 24-48 hours
- Apply recommended moisturiser and SPF diligently
- Avoid extreme heat (saunas, hot tubs) for 1-2 weeks
- Stay hydrated to support collagen production
- Avoid strenuous exercise for 24 hours
- Continue your normal skincare routine after 48 hours
- Attend follow-up appointments as recommended
Most clients experience minimal side effects, which may include slight redness, mild swelling, or tingling sensations that typically resolve within hours or days. These are normal signs that the collagen-building process has been initiated.
