HIFU
Lift From the Inside: Focused Ultrasound for the Jawline, Cheeks and Brow
What Is a HIFU?
HIFU stands for high-intensity focused ultrasound. It passes energy straight through the surface of your skin to a deep structural layer underneath — the same layer a surgeon tightens in a facelift — and heats it at precise points so the tissue contracts and lifts from below. Nothing on the surface is damaged, which is why there is no recovery to plan around.
Setting the Gold Standard
HIFU works at depth, which means placement matters more than volume. Van treats the areas that will actually change your profile — the jawline, the midface, the brow — rather than passing the handpiece over everything. You are told which areas are worth treating on your face and which are not.
Derma Skinlab: Setting the Gold Standard in HIFU
At Derma Skinlab, our commitment to excellence in HIFU is unmatched in Grand Prairie. What sets us apart?
Derma Skinlab Difference
Mastery and Expertise:
Honest assessment first. HIFU suits sagging and a dropped midface; it is not the answer for crepey surface texture, and if that is your concern you will be pointed at Thermage instead.
HIFU Step by Step
When you entrust Derma Skinlab for your HIFU journey in Grand Prairie, anticipate a smooth and relaxing procedure:
Step 1: Derma Skinlab Consultation
Van assesses where your face has actually dropped and which areas will respond. You are told honestly whether HIFU, Thermage, or neither is right for you.
Step 2: Before Appointment
Clean face, no makeup. Tell us about any implants, fillers or recent treatments in the area.
Step 3: Mapping the Treatment Lines
The treatment areas are marked so the energy is delivered along the right planes for lifting rather than scattered.
Step 4: The Treatment
About three hours. You feel brief deep pulses — a warm prickle at depth rather than on the skin.
Step 5: Straight Back To Your Day
Mild redness that settles within a few hours. No peeling, no dressings, nothing to hide.
Step 6: The Lift Builds
Like Thermage, the result develops over two to three months as collagen rebuilds, rather than appearing the same day.
HIFU FAQS
How is HIFU different from Thermage?
HIFU goes deeper and lifts. Thermage works broader and shallower and tightens surface texture. Many people suit one better than the other, and some benefit from both at different times.
Does it hurt?
You feel short bursts of deep heat. Most describe it as a prickle at depth. It is brief and the pace is yours.
When will I see the lift?
It builds over two to three months. This is not a same-day result.
How long does it last?
Usually around a year, depending on your skin and your age.
Is there downtime?
None. Mild redness for a few hours at most.
Can I have it if I already have filler?
Tell us where and when. It affects where we treat, so it is discussed at your consultation.
What does it cost?
From $150, depending on which areas are treated. The total is confirmed with you before we begin.
Do you offer consultations before services?
Yes. Every appointment starts with one, and you are free to decide against treatment on the day.
