The HIFU (High Intensity Focused Ultrasound) treatment for the chin is a modern, safe method of non-surgical lifting that uses focused ultrasound to deeply stimulate tissues. The energy emitted by the device's head penetrates through the layers of the skin, reaching the superficial muscular aponeurotic system (SMAS) - the same layer targeted by surgical facelifts.
Through the action of HIFU, controlled micro-injury to the tissues occurs, initiating intense production of new collagen and elastin. The skin becomes firmer, more toned, and the contour of the jawline becomes more defined and rejuvenated. Importantly, the treatment does not damage the epidermis, requires no downtime, and provides long-lasting results.
When to use the HIFU treatment for the chin?
The HIFU treatment for the chin is recommended in case of:
- visible loss of skin firmness below the jawline,
- presence of a "double chin" due to skin laxity (rather than just fat),
- lack of definition in the jawline contour,
- signs of early aging and decreased skin elasticity after the age of 30,
- desire to avoid surgical procedures.
It is an ideal option for individuals seeking an advanced, natural, and safe way to improve the appearance of the lower part of the face - both as anti-aging prevention and regenerative therapy.
Effects of the HIFU treatment for the chin
The effects of the HIFU treatment are progressive, meaning they accumulate over time rather than appearing immediately. This is because the body needs several weeks for collagen remodeling and tissue regeneration.
The results of the treatment include:
- Visibly firmer and lifted skin under the chin, due to the stimulation of deep tissue layers and intense collagen production,
- Improved skin tightness in the jaw and neck area, resulting in a more defined and slender facial contour,
- Reduction of the "double chin" effect, especially when caused by skin laxity or mild tissue excess,
- Natural, unaltered lifting effect, without the risk of changing facial features or an unnatural appearance,
- Refreshed facial contour, without signs of intervention, allowing for an authentic and fresh look.
Many patients observe not only an improvement in contour but also overall skin quality and firmness, particularly valuable in anti-aging prevention.
- The first effects appear after about 4 weeks
- The maximum results are visible after 2-3 months.
- They can last for up to 18 months after the treatment.
What to combine the HIFU treatment for the chin with for better effects?
To achieve a fuller and more individualized result, the HIFU treatment for the chin can be combined with other therapies:
- Injectable Lipolysis - if the cause of the double chin also involves excess localized fat tissue, it is beneficial to first reduce the volume with lipolysis (usually 1-2 treatments) and then perform HIFU for skin firming and lifting after about 4-6 weeks.
- RF Microneedling - after HIFU, if in addition to tissue sagging, there are signs of skin laxity, loss of density, and fine wrinkles. RF works more superficially than HIFU and supports the firming effect. It can be performed after around 4-6 weeks.
- Regenerative Mesotherapy or peptide - during a series or after the HIFU treatment when the skin requires additional hydration, nourishment, or support in the collagen regeneration process. This treatment does not interfere with HIFU and can be performed as a complementary procedure every 2-4 weeks.
- Lymphatic drainage or Manual Face Massages - before or after HIFU, especially for individuals prone to swelling or lymphatic congestion. Massage before the treatment can improve microcirculation and prepare tissues, while post-HIFU massage can accelerate the effect and reduce any tension sensations.
When is it worth combining treatments?
Complementary treatments are recommended in cases of:
- advanced skin laxity,
- a combination of sagging with fat accumulation,
- skin in need of intensive regeneration,
- desire to achieve maximum results with a minimal number of visits.
The combination of treatments is always tailored individually, respecting skin physiology, the aesthetic goals of the patient, and the regeneration pace. An individual consultation with a cosmetologist will allow for planning a therapy that is not only effective but also safe.
Why do patients choose HIFU?
- Because it works deeply yet looks natural. It is a solution for individuals expecting real, long-lasting results - without scars, downtime, or changes in facial features.
- HIFU effectively improves skin tightening and contour while maintaining full safety and comfort. The treatment does not require a break in daily activities, and the results can last for several months.
- It is a technology that combines precision with efficiency - chosen by patients valuing modern, proven solutions in aesthetic medicine.
