Sydney's signature non-surgical facelift — lift, tighten and contour without downtime.
Advanced Aesthetic Treatment
Non-Surgical Skin Tightening & Lifting with Focus Dual® HIFU
High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) is an advanced, non-invasive technology that delivers precisely focused ultrasound energy to targeted tissue beneath the skin — penetrating the dermis, subcutaneous fat, and the SMAS: the same deep fibromuscular layer surgeons reposition during a traditional facelift.
What Is HIFU?
Precision ultrasound that lifts from the inside out.
High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) is a non-surgical treatment that uses focused ultrasound energy to target the deeper structural layers of the skin without affecting the surface. By delivering controlled thermal energy at precise depths, HIFU stimulates collagen production and triggers a natural regenerative response within the tissue. This process helps to lift, tighten, and firm the skin, while improving overall tone, elasticity and contour. Over time as new collagen develops, the skin appears smoother, more defined and visibly rejuvenated—without the need for surgery or downtime.
How It Works
Three precise depths. One transformative session.
High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) delivers precise ultrasound energy to specific depths beneath the skin (1.5mm, 3.0mm and 4.5mm for facial treatments, with deeper depths used for body areas). This creates controlled thermal coagulation points within the tissue, stimulating collagen production and supporting natural tissue contraction.
What It Treats
Conditions treated by Focus Dual®
4.5mm — SMAS Layer
Reaches the superficial musculo-aponeurotic system — the deep fibromuscular layer that provides structural support to the face. Thermal coagulation here produces the lifting and tightening equivalent to a surgical facelift.
3.0mm — Deep Dermis
Stimulates the fibroblasts responsible for collagen and elastin production — improving skin thickness, firmness and overall texture from within.
1.5mm — Superficial Dermis
Targets surface-level laxity and fine lines, improving skin quality and stimulating a visible glow response — ideal for the delicate eye area and décolletage.
Controlled Thermal Coagulation
Focused ultrasound creates precise coagulation points beneath the skin without damaging the surface — activating the body's natural wound healing response and progressive collagen cascade.
TGA-Registered Device (ARTG 371470)

Suitability
Is HIFU right for you?
This treatment is for you if…
You are noticing early to moderate skin laxity — softening jawline, mild neck sag, or subtle changes in facial contour
You want a subtle, natural enhancement — not a dramatic transformation
You want a preventative anti-ageing strategy (late 20s–40s)
You are in your 50s or 60s and want mild-to-moderate rejuvenation without surgery
You need zero downtime — returning to work, makeup and exercise the same day
You want to tighten loose skin after weight loss or pregnancy
This treatment may not be for you if…
You have active skin infections, open wounds or severe inflammatory skin conditions
You are pregnant or breastfeeding
You have a pacemaker or other electronic implanted device
You have severe, surgical-level skin laxity (HIFU complements — it does not replace — surgery)
You have had facial surgery within the past 6 months
You have certain medical conditions (reviewed during consultation)

Questions
Most clients experience only mild discomfort — often described as brief tingling, warmth or pressure during energy delivery. Sensitivity varies depending on the area being treated, and our dermal therapists adjusts energy settings to your comfort level throughout the session.
Many clients achieve noticeable results with 1–2 sessions. The exact number depends on your skin condition, goals, and response to treatment. Our dermal therapists will recommend a personalised plan during your consultation to ensure optimal results.
Initial tightening may be noticeable immediately. The most significant improvements develop gradually over 8–12 weeks as new collagen forms, with full results typically visible around 3 months post-treatment.
Results typically last 12–24 months depending on your skin, age, lifestyle and maintenance. Collagen naturally continues to decline over time, so periodic maintenance treatments help sustain your results long-term.
HIFU is non-invasive with minimal downtime. Most clients return to normal activities immediately. Some may notice temporary redness, mild swelling or tenderness in the treated area, which usually resolves within a few hours to a couple of days.
Common temporary effects include mild redness, swelling, tingling or tenderness. Minor bruising or short-term nerve irritation is rare. Strict treatment protocols and our dermal therapists' clinical expertise minimise risks throughout every session.
Yes — HIFU works beautifully as part of a comprehensive rejuvenation plan. Many clients combine HIFU with RF Microneedling, advanced facials, or Exomide™ Exosome Therapy (which delivers concentrated growth factors to further support collagen regeneration and overall rejuvenation).
HIFU is a non-surgical alternative suited to mild and moderate laxity. While it visibly improves firmness and contour, it does not produce the same dramatic lifting as surgery. Ideal outcomes are achieved when expectations are realistic and tailored to your skin condition — our dermal therapists will advise honestly during your consultation.
HIFU suits adults noticing early to moderate skin laxity — often starting in the late 20s to 40s for preventative purposes, and into the 50s and 60s for mild to moderate rejuvenation. Suitability is always assessed individually.
HIFU penetrates deeper — reaching the SMAS layer at 4.5mm — producing a lifting and structural tightening effect. RF Microneedling targets the dermis at 1.5–3mm, producing collagen remodelling for texture, pore reduction and surface quality. The two complement each other beautifully and are often combined in a treatment plan.
