Microfocused Ultrasound – Treatment to combat sagging

Sagging skin is characterized by loss of elasticity, and is one of the most visible signs of aging. It can occur on both the face and other regions of the body, due to the wear and tear and weakening of collagen and elastin fibers.

As a solution to sagging, many people seek aesthetic procedures. And, in these cases, microfocused ultrasound is a highly recommended procedure, as it provides a non-surgical lifting effect on the skin.

What is microfocused ultrasound and how does it work?

Microfocused ultrasound is a treatment that provides a lifting effect in a non-invasive and non-surgical way. The procedure is carried out using devices such as the Ultraformer, one of the most renowned at the moment.

The Ultraformer treats the superficial and deep layers of the skin, as well as the Superficial Muscular Aponeurotic System (SMAS), that is, the facial support structure, resulting in a three-layer lifting effect. Furthermore, it also treats deep fat.

The treatment heats the skin and stimulates collagen fibers, leading to thickening, thus resulting in a long-term lifting effect. Due to the high amount of energy that the device emits, it is also used to “melt” facial fat while ‘stretching’ the area.

Regions for application of microfocused ultrasound

Sagging can occur on both the face and other parts of the body, such as the neck, arms, abdomen and thighs. Therefore, as it is used to treat sagging, microfocused ultrasound can be applied to all of these areas.

But, in addition to its main application being to improve sagging, microfocused ultrasound also has other applications. It can be used to treat cellulite, break down localized fat and rejuvenate, being highly recommended for treating double chin reduction. In the treatment of localized fat, for example, the heat generated by ultrasound breaks down fat cells, which are then eliminated from the body.

Furthermore, it can also be applied to the eye bag area, also reducing wrinkles, expression lines and dark circles.

What are the benefits of microfocused ultrasound?

Some aesthetic treatments are considered invasive, painful and require recovery time. This is not the case with microfocused ultrasound.

The procedure is recognized for delivering satisfactory effects, among many other benefits that you can see below:

• Can be used on all skin types, all year round

• Complete treatment, in a single session, lasting 45 to 60 minutes

• Non-invasive method

• Pain well tolerated, if proper anesthetic is applied

• No recovery required (you can resume your activities immediately after application)

• Just one session a year may be enough (in more severe cases, sessions may be recommended every 6 months)

• Excellent for cases of mild to moderate sagging

• Reaches the deepest layers of the skin, without damaging the most superficial layers

For these reasons, microfocused ultrasound has been increasingly sought after by people who want to reduce the signs of aging. However, to guarantee all these benefits, it is essential to have a trusted professional who has proven training for this technology.
