Face lift without surgery is no longer a dream in Singapore. Facelift is an increasingly popular cosmetic procedure that promises a more youthful and fresh appearance. Facelift tightens loose or sagging skin on the face and reduces the wrinkles between the cheeks and the lips. There are many forms of facelift, with the most well-known form being Rhytidectomy, a surgery procedure. Other forms of facelift include liposuction and the use of lasers.
However, little known to most, ultrasound can also be used for face lift without surgery, and is much more effective and also generally painless!
Let me now show you the wonders of ultrasound, and how it can bring your youthfulness back to your face.
Ultrasound Facelift Treatments
How does it work?
Ultrasound facelift treatments are non-invasive non surgery face lift. They effectively reduce the visible signs of aging on the skin by targeting the prime cause of it – Collagen Loss. Ultrasound therapy is able to restore the collagen in your skin, causing it to tighten and lift the loose skin. Ultrasound facelift treatments target deep tissue layers, penetrating under the facial muscles into the second layers of muscles. Ultrasound energy is able to reach and stimulate the production of collagen from the deepest layers. Once the skin starts to produce collagen, saggy skins as well as loose neck skin lift and tighten, allowing your skin to appear younger.
Due to the high amount of energy produced by ultrasound, facial fats found in areas such as the neck, jaw and chin are melted, tightening the area. Ultrasound facelifts also treats the superficial skin layers, causing spots and wrinkles to fade.
HIFU for Skin Tightening
HIFU, or High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound, is a non-invasive cosmetic procedure that utilizes ultrasound energy to lift and tighten the skin. This treatment targets deep layers of tissue beneath the skin’s surface, stimulating collagen production and promoting tissue regeneration. During the procedure, focused ultrasound energy is delivered to specific depths, generating heat to initiate the body’s natural healing response. As collagen production increases over time, the skin becomes firmer, smoother, and more youthful in appearance. HIFU is commonly used to address sagging skin on the face, neck, and décolletage, as well as to improve the overall contour and tightness of the treated areas. One of the key advantages of hifu for skin tightening is its ability to achieve noticeable results with minimal downtime, making it an attractive option for individuals seeking non-surgical skin rejuvenation.
Ultherapy Face Treatment
Ultherapy is a cutting-edge cosmetic treatment that harnesses the power of ultrasound technology to lift and tone the skin. Unlike traditional facelift procedures that involve surgery, incisions, and downtime, Ultherapy offers a non-invasive alternative for achieving firmer, more youthful-looking skin. The procedure works by delivering focused ultrasound energy to targeted depths within the skin, stimulating the production of collagen and elastin. This results in gradual skin tightening and lifting over time, with noticeable improvements in skin laxity and texture. Ultherapy face treatment is FDA-approved for lifting the skin on the brows, neck, and chin, as well as for improving lines and wrinkles on the décolletage. With its ability to precisely target multiple layers of tissue without damaging the skin’s surface, Ultherapy offers natural-looking results with little to no downtime, making it a popular choice among individuals looking to rejuvenate their appearance without undergoing surgery.
Which parts of the face can Ultrasound facelift treat?
Ultrasound facelift can be used on:
- Wrinkles on the face
- Droopy eye lid
- Droopy cheeks
- Jowl
- Double chin
- Deep laugh lines
- Marionette lines (wrinkle extending from angle of mouth to jawline)
What to expect during the face lift without surgery treatment process?
HIFU is a non-invasive, with no down time treatment. However, patients may feel a mild discomfort on areas with more bones like the jawline. This is caused by ultrasound energy being reflected off the facial contours. HIFU takes approximately 30 minutes to be completed. Clients might experience tingling sensation during treatment, but it is temporary and can be prevented with topical anaesthesia if deemed necessary.
What to expect after these non surgery face lift treatment process?
HIFU and Ultherapy are non surgery face lift, hence the downtime is minimal, and there is no risk of bruising or swelling. However, some people may appear to have slightly reddish skin immediately after the treatment, but the symptom will subside within a few hours, and can be covered by makeup immediately after the treatment. Following the treatment, clients should also have no issues returning to their normal lifestyle at all, although it would be ideal to avoid extended exposure to the sun. Ultrasound facelift can achieve extremely good effects in just a single session. However, it could take 4-6 weeks after the treatment before you can notice how your skin have tightened or how your fine lines have been smoothened. This is because the collagen takes time to be produced and time is also needed for the collagen to effectively tighten the skin and fill the wrinkles and fine lines.
