High-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) enables skin tightening and collagen regeneration in a non-invasive manner. In aesthetic medicine, it focuses on improving laxity and ptosis of the face and neck and for improving the contour of the lower face.

 

Many articles have demonstrated its efficacy and safety, as well as its clinical association with other aesthetic medicine procedures.

 

Several Hifu medical devices have been developed and placed on the market and one of their limitations is patient discomfort. Indeed, when acoustic waves are delivered to the target tissue and thermal zones are produced, heat propagates above and below those points. Among the smas, this heat irritates sensitive nerves, causing the patient pain.

 

Preliminary studies have shown that a new high-intensity focused transcutaneous ultrasound medical device (Hifu Finesse® – Biotec Italia) is able to guarantee safety and clinical efficacy on collagen regeneration and facelift with increased patient comfort. This device is based on two technological innovations: a central minus point that can guarantee an ultra-micro-focus on the ultrasound wave, reducing the caloric diffusion above and below the smas; a constant refrigeration system on the transducer by means of a closed water flow that allows to compare the energy between each single point dispensed (Active Refrigerant Emission).

 

I have been using Hifu Finesse (BiotecItalia Medical Division) since 2018 and have treated over 300 patients. In this webinar I will present the Hifu Finesse medical device and show my clinical experience.
