Ultherapy (HIFU)

What is Ultherapy (HIFU)?

Ultherapy uses focused ultrasound energy to stimulate collagen production deep within the skin. It's the only FDA-cleared non-invasive procedure to lift skin on the neck, chin, and brow—with visible improvement developing over 2-3 months without surgery or downtime.

What to Know Before You Go

💡 Pro Tip: Ultherapy works best for mild to moderate skin laxity. Combine with skinboosters or PRP for enhanced results. If you have significant sagging, discuss whether surgical options might be more effective.

⚠️ Insider Note: Discomfort during treatment is normal—it means the energy is reaching the correct depth. Results develop gradually over 2-3 months as collagen rebuilds, so don't judge final outcome until 3-6 months post-treatment.

Frequently Asked Questions

How painful is Ultherapy/HIFU?

Moderate to significant discomfort—rated 4-7/10 depending on area. Jawline and under-chin are most uncomfortable. Pain is brief per pulse but cumulative. Pain management options available, and most people tolerate it well.

Is Ultherapy/HIFU safe in Turkey?

Yes—Turkey's clinics use quality HIFU devices with ultrasound imaging for precise depth targeting. Choose experienced providers for optimal safety and results.

Why is HIFU cheaper in Turkey?

Lower operating costs and favorable exchange rates—not lower quality. Turkish clinics use the same HIFU technology as Western providers at 55-65% savings.

When will I see results?

Initial tightening may be visible immediately but is often subtle. Main results develop over 2-6 months as collagen rebuilds. Peak results at 3-6 months. Don't judge final outcome until then.

How long do results last?

Results typically last 1-2 years. Aging continues, so maintenance treatments every 1-2 years help sustain improvement. Lifestyle factors (sun protection, skincare) affect longevity.

Is one session enough?

For most patients, one session delivers noticeable improvement. Some with more significant laxity may benefit from a second session 6-12 months later based on assessment.

How does HIFU compare to thread lifts?

HIFU is non-invasive with no needles, gradual results, and lower risk. Thread lifts are minimally invasive with immediate, more dramatic results but more recovery. HIFU is gentler but subtler.

What areas can be treated?

Face, brow, chin, jawline, neck, and décolletage. Most common treatment is full face and neck for comprehensive lifting and tightening.
