Tighten, Lift, and Define—With Minimal Downtime

HIFU (High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound) targets the SMAS layer and deep dermis to trigger collagen remodeling for a subtle, natural lift—no incisions, no fillers. At UE Plastic Surgery in Gangnam, our female board-certified facial specialist calibrates energy, depth, and line density to refine your jawline, cheeks, and neck without a “pulled” look.

Why Patients Choose HIFU

• Subtle lift of cheeks, jawline, and brow
• Tighter skin with smoother texture and smaller-looking pores
• Minimal downtime; clinic-to-dinner friendly
• Plays well with fillers, skin boosters, RF microneedling, and laser toning

Ideal Candidates

• Mild to moderate laxity (early jowls, cheek descent, brow hooding)
• Fine lines/texture concerns without heavy skin excess
• Prefer non-surgical tightening or maintenance after surgery/threads
• Healthy skin and realistic expectations (1–3 sessions may be ideal)

How HIFU Works

Sóng siêu âm tập trung tạo ra các điểm đông tụ nhiệt ở độ sâu chính xác (ví dụ: 3,0–4,5 mm đối với SMAS, 1,5–2,0 mm đối với lớp hạ bì). Điều này kích thích quá trình sản sinh collagen mới, làm săn chắc và nâng cơ dần dần trong vòng 6–12 tuần.

Devices & Protocols We Use

• Ulthera / Ultraformer-class ultrasound: SMAS-level precision tightening

Treatment Areas

• Lower face & jawline (jowls)

• Neck and sub-mandibular area
• Brow and upper face (case-by-case)

What to Expect at Your Visit
