HIFU Technician

HIFU stands for High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound. It uses focused ultrasound energy to target deep layers of skin, stimulating collagen production and resulting in skin tightening and lifting without surgery or downtime. HIFU can be used for facial treatments such as brow lifting, jawline tightening, and neck firming, as well as body contouring.
