Ultraformer HIFU Skin Tightening

High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) treatment using Ultraformer 3 to lift and tighten lax skin on the face, neck, and décolletage without surgery or downtime.

Ultraformer HIFU (High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound) at Sozo Aesthetic Clinic is a non-surgical skin lifting and tightening treatment using the Ultraformer 3 platform — one of the most advanced HIFU systems available. The device delivers focused ultrasound energy to targeted depths beneath the skin surface: 4.5mm reaching the SMAS (Superficial Musculoaponeurotic System) layer that surgeons address during facelifts, and 3.0mm targeting deep dermis for collagen remodelling. By precisely focusing energy at these depths without disturbing the overlying epidermis, Ultraformer HIFU stimulates a robust collagen and elastin regeneration response. Results develop gradually over 3 to 6 months as new collagen forms and matures, with peak improvement visible around the 3-month mark and effects lasting up to 12 to 18 months. Treatable areas include the brow, lower face (jowls and jawline), neck, and décolletage. Patients with mild to moderate skin laxity achieve the most significant improvement. The treatment is well-tolerated with most patients describing the sensation as a warm, deep tingling; there is no recovery time required and patients can return to normal activities immediately. Sozo also offers INFINI radiofrequency microneedling as an alternative or complementary treatment for patients with concerns at shallower dermal depths.
