HIFU stands for High Intensity Focus Ultrasound. HIFU skin tightening is a non-invasive, non-ablative method that allows for energy deposition into the fascia, while avoiding epidermal heating. The beam of the ultrasound energy will pass harmlessly through the skin allowing a focal point to target deep layers of the skin structure.
