How SMAS (HIFU) Lifting Work for Your unique needs
Do you want to get back the firmness and youth of your skin without surgery? SMAS (HIFU) lifting is a modern ultrasound skin tightening technique that works on the deeper layers of tissue. High-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) stimulates the formation of collagen and elastin throughout the procedure, promoting natural rejuvenation processes. These proteins are necessary for the suppleness and hardness of skin. After just one session your skin gets firmer, smoother and more defined contours.

How does the procedure work?
During the procedure SMAS lifting a specialised tool applies ultrasonic energy to the SMAS layer (superficial muscular aponeurotic system), which is situated deep beneath the skin. This guarantees accurate heating of the tissue, which causes contraction and the synthesis of new collagen. This procedure enhances skin tone, smoothes wrinkles, tightens and elevates face features, and produces a natural rejuvenating effect. You will see tighter, smoother skin with more defined face features after only one session. A complete course provides long-lasting results that can last up to 18 months.
Deep Skin Tightening
Face SMAS Lifting provides long-lasting tightening and lifting for better face shapes by focusing on deeper layers of the skin and muscles.
Wrinkles & Fine Lines
By promoting the creation of collagen in the deeper layers of the skin, the technique successfully minimises wrinkles and smoothes fine lines.
Facial Contouring
SMAS Lifting helps the face look more young and sculpted by defining and enhancing face features.
Elasticity of the Skin
The treatment restores skin elasticity by rejuvenating the deeper structural layers, improving firmness and resilience.
Rejuvenation
Long-term skin regeneration and renewal are ensured by promoting the development of collagen and elastin, which leaves the skin feeling refreshed and revitalised.
