HIFU Body in Sheffield
Body contouring & skin tightening without surgery
HIFU isn't just for the face. We can also use HIFU on areas of the body where you're concerned about stubborn pockets of fat, loose skin or lack of definition.
It's a non-surgical treatment, so there are no injections or lengthy recovery period.
Treatment At A Glance
About This Treatment
How Does HIFU Body Work?
HIFU stands for High Intensity Focused Ultrasound. It delivers focused ultrasound energy beneath the surface of the skin.
Depending on what we're treating, it can be used to target deeper tissue while also encouraging collagen production and gradual tightening.
Benefits & Areas
What Areas Can Be Treated?
Depending on suitability, we can treat areas such as the abdomen, flanks, thighs, arms and bra area.
We'll assess the area before treatment because HIFU isn't suitable for every type of body concern.
Your Treatment
What Happens During Treatment?
We'll assess and mark the area before starting. The HIFU handpiece is then used to deliver ultrasound energy at selected depths.
You may feel warmth, tingling or short sharp sensations during treatment.
Additional Information
Is HIFU Body A Weight-Loss Treatment?
No — this is really important. HIFU Body is not a weight-loss treatment and it isn't designed to treat large areas of excess fat. It's better suited to targeted areas where you'd like more contour or tightening.
EMS Body Sculpt, HIFU Body and Sculptra Body all do different things. EMS is mainly about muscle stimulation and tone, HIFU Body is more suited to contouring and tightening selected areas, and Sculptra Body is about stimulating collagen and improving skin quality and firmness. Sometimes one is enough, sometimes a combination makes more sense — we'll help you decide.
Results, Downtime & Aftercare
When Will I See Results?
Results aren't instant — the body needs time to respond to the treatment, so changes develop gradually over the following weeks and months. How many treatments you'll need depends on the area and what we're trying to achieve; we'll assess you first and give you a realistic treatment plan rather than automatically selling you a course.
Downtime is usually very little — you may have some temporary redness, tenderness, sensitivity or swelling in the treated area.
