At Cosmedica Australia, we use the Ultraformer III, the world’s leading HIFU (High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound) system. This advanced device features both Micro-Focused Ultrasound (MFU) for skin tightening and Macro-Focused Ultrasound (MAFU) for fat reduction. Ultraformer III is renowned for its precision, delivering energy at varying depths (1.5mm to 13mm) to treat multiple layers of the skin, ensuring effective results for both facial lifting and body contouring.

The Ultraformer III stands out for its speed, comfort, and versatility, making it an ideal choice for non-invasive fat reduction, skin tightening, and rejuvenation.

The HIFU Ultraformer III is widely regarded as the gold standard in HIFU treatments. Here's how it compares to other HIFU devices:

• Dual Functionality: Unlike many devices that focus solely on lifting or tightening, Ultraformer III delivers both Micro-Focused Ultrasound (MFU) for skin tightening and Macro-Focused Ultrasound (MAFU) for fat ablation, offering a dual-action treatment.

• Customised Depths: It penetrates multiple layers of skin and tissue, from 1.5mm to 13mm, allowing personalised treatments for both superficial and deeper layers. This flexibility enables precise facial lifting and effective fat reduction in larger body areas.

• Comfort and Speed: Its patented elliptical transducers deliver energy quickly and efficiently, making sessions shorter and more comfortable compared to older systems.

• Proven Results: Clinical studies and client reviews highlight consistent, long-lasting results, with visible improvements in skin firmness and body contouring often seen after just one session.

• Minimal Downtime: Ultraformer III is designed to deliver results with little to no recovery period, unlike other technologies that can cause prolonged redness or swelling.

In comparison, Ultraformer III offers greater versatility, comfort, and proven results, making it an ideal choice for clients looking for a non-invasive, effective solution.

HIFU (High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound) Ultraformer is a non-surgical treatment designed to target stubborn fat and tighten loose skin. It works by delivering ultrasound energy to deeper layers of the skin, breaking down fat cells and stimulating collagen production for enhanced skin elasticity. This dual-action approach helps to contour and reshape areas like the abdomen, thighs, and arms without invasive procedures.

HIFU Ultraformer is highly versatile and can target multiple body areas, including:

• Abdomen

• Thighs

• Above Knees

• Arms

• Axilla (Underarms)

• Flanks (Love Handles)

This makes it an ideal solution for anyone looking to sculpt and tone specific problem areas.

This treatment is best suited for individuals looking to reduce stubborn fat deposits and improve skin laxity. It’s ideal for clients who want a non-invasive alternative to traditional fat reduction methods, such as liposuction. However, it’s important to note that HIFU is not a weight-loss solution but rather a body sculpting treatment for those close to their target weight.

The number of sessions depends on the treatment area and the client’s goals. Most clients see noticeable results after 1-3 sessions, spaced 4-6 weeks apart. Your provider will customise a treatment plan based on your unique needs during your consultation.

HIFU Ultraformer treatments are generally well-tolerated. Clients often describe the sensation as a mild warming or tingling as the ultrasound energy penetrates the skin. If necessary, a numbing cream can be applied to enhance comfort during the procedure.

Initial improvements may be visible within 2-4 weeks as fat cells break down and collagen production begins. However, the most dramatic results typically develop over 8-12 weeks, with continued improvements as your body naturally processes the treated fat.

One of the major benefits of HIFU Ultraformer is its minimal downtime. Most clients can return to their daily activities immediately after treatment. You may experience mild redness or swelling, which usually subsides within a few hours.

Unlike surgical procedures such as liposuction, HIFU Ultraformer is a non-invasive treatment with no incisions, scars, or long recovery periods. It also offers the added benefit of skin tightening, making it a comprehensive solution for both fat reduction and improving skin laxity.

The fat cells targeted by HIFU are permanently destroyed and naturally eliminated by the body. However, maintaining your results depends on a healthy lifestyle, including a balanced diet and regular exercise. Skin tightening benefits may also require occasional maintenance sessions to sustain optimal results.

Preparing for HIFU is simple. Avoid excessive sun exposure, and refrain from using harsh skincare products in the treatment area. Your practitioner will provide you with specific pre-treatment guidelines to ensure the best possible outcome.
