Mini HIFU

Defying Gravity

Firmness, restored from the deep layers.

As we age, the structural layers of our face begin to weaken, leading to sagging along the jawline and a softness in the cheeks. Skincare addresses the surface, but to truly lift, we need to go deeper.

I use Mini HIFU (High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound) to bypass the skin's surface and target the SMAS layer—the same deep muscle layer that surgeons tighten during a facelift. By delivering precise energy to this depth, I create thermal coagulation points that force the muscle to contract and lift.

It is my definitive treatment for clients noticing the first signs of gravity, offering a sharper jawline and tighter contours without a single needle.

The Science

The Technology

Unlike lasers which treat the surface, HIFU travels deep. It heats the tissue to between 60-70 degrees, the optimal temperature for collagen denaturation.

The Response

This controlled heat triggers an immediate contraction (tightening) of the collagen fibres. Simultaneously, it stimulates a long-term wound healing response, causing your body to produce fresh, strong collagen over the next 12 weeks.

The Target

Because the "Mini" handpiece is smaller and more agile than traditional HIFU devices, I can contour specific areas like the jawline, double chin, and brow with exceptional precision.

Expert Guidance

Does it hurt?

You will feel a sensation of heat and a "deep ache" or prickling feeling as the energy hits the muscle layer. It is perfectly manageable without numbing cream.

When will I see results?

You may see an immediate "flash" effect of tightening due to the heat contraction. However, the true structural lift takes place over 3 months as the new collagen builds.

Does it melt fat?

In specific areas (like the double chin), HIFU can help reduce small pockets of fat while tightening the skin. I adjust the depth to ensure we are lifting, not losing volume where we want to keep it.
