FREQUENTLY ASKED
QUESTIONS

  • Is there parking?
    Yes we have plenty of free parking directly outside the clinic
  • What does the treatment feel like?
    You may experience some mild heating or a slight tingling sensation during treatment. Patients describe this as moderate and acceptable.
  • Is there any downtime with a HIFU treatment?
    Due to the non-invasive nature of HIFU treatments, there is virtually no downtime. You may experience slight redness following the treatment, and a small percentage of our clients do experience minor swelling, tingling or tenderness. These symptoms are mild and temporary. You will be able to return to your normal activities straight away, and there are no special recovery measures needed. This is why HIFU has earned the name “lunchtime face lift”.
  • How does a HIFU facial treatment work?
    This non-surgical face lift works on the SMAS layer deep below the skin, which is the area surgeons tighten for face and neck lifts. Rather than surgery, the Focus Dual harnesses ultrasound technology to radiate energy to the SMAS layer to tighten, lift and plump the skin.
  • Is there any prep needed?
    We cannot treat with HIFU if you are wearning false tan. You needy to refrain from wearing false tan for 7 days before the treatment.
  • How long will it take for me to see results?
    Results can usually be seen immediately, but the results get better and better up to 12 weeks post treatment as your collagen is renewed. We expect results to last 1-2 years, but this can be dependent on lifestyle and maintenance
  • How many sessions will I need?
    Treatments are carried out every 4-6 weeks and typically between 1 and 3 treatments are recommended for best results. Top-up sessions are performed as required, but usually only once or twice a year.
  • Do I need a consultation for filler and toxin or can I book and get it on the same day?
    For any filler and toxin treatments you will need a consultation with 24 hours time to review options before committing to treatment. Toxins are a prescription drug that require prescribing if treatment is recommended.
  • Is there any prep needed?
    No prep is needed for this treatment. We do however suggest that you do not come with fresh fake tan and make sure you haven't eaten at least an hour before the treatment.
  • Will it help me loose weight?
    Lymphatic drainage can help with water weight loss, but it is not targeting fat. Effective lymphatic drainage can assist with weight loss as part of a healthy diet and exercise regime.
