HIFU Non‑Surgical Face‑Lift in Johannesburg at Skin Reform
Experience the future of facial rejuvenation with our HIFU Non‑Surgical Face‑Lift. Using High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU), Skin Reform (Sandton & Greenstone) delivers skin tightening, contouring, and lifting—all without surgery, needles, or downtime. With each pulse activating deep collagen regeneration, you enjoy a firmer, youthful facial profile—naturally.
What Is HIFU?
High‑Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) is a cutting-edge cosmetic technology that targets the skin’s deep layers—down to the SMAS level, where surgical facelifts work—without incisions By delivering focused ultrasound energy, HIFU triggers thermal micro-injuries that stimulate collagen production, tightening, and natural lifting. It’s a scientific breakthrough offering visible anti-aging results with minimal discomfort.
Key Benefits of HIFU at Skin Reform
Non-Invasive Lift: Tightens cheeks, jawline, brows, and neck—no surgery needed
Firming & Contouring: Encourages collagen rebound for enhanced tone and definition
Long-Lasting Results: Collagen continues maturing over 3–6 months with effects lasting up to 18 months
Zero Downtime: Resume your life immediately—no bandages or recovery required
Precision Treatment: Ideal for early sagging; adjustable settings ensure safe treatment for most skin types
How the Treatment Works
1. Consultation & Mapping: Our specialists assess skin, discuss goals, then mark target zones (jawline, brows, neck).
2. Treatment Application: A handheld ultrasound device delivers energy in precise pulses across deep skin layers.
3. Immediate Firmness: Some lifting is visible right away due to tissue heating.
4. Collagen Rebuild: Over 2–3 months, new collagen develops, improving firmness, texture, and elasticity.
5. Follow‑Up Plan: One session is often sufficient, with maintenance visits recommended after 12–18 months based on individual needs.
