HIFU
Reddit take
Not enough linked mention summaries yet; the source excerpts below are the evidence.
Pros
- I used hifu for fat reduction and increased collagen. Both definitely worked.
- I had HIFU for lower face, on the highest settings. It was incredibly effective after 2 sessions, 6 months apart. However the caveat is I'm young and active. It reduced the bit of natural sagging I had and reduced fat so my face bec...
- I can share for HIFU. It actually gave me numbers and slightly pain for almost a month afterwards, and results peaked at 6 months. This is apparently very normal for intense treatments
- For mild laxity with masseter Botox, HIFU can be a good option, and RF treatments like Thermage or Oligio can also help with skin firmness.
- Some treatments are a single event. Ultherapy, Thermage, HIFU, botox, filler. You get it once, the result shows up and settles over the next few weeks, and there's nothing else you need to do.
Cons
- They had recommended HiFu with Volnewmer but I declined bc I don't need any lasers getting anywhere close to the SMAS.
- From what I was told the heat is more spread out, so it’s not really the same fat loss thing as hifu.
- For lifting treatments like HIFU, Thermage, Ultherapy, or RF, I also don’t think they’re necessary for most people in their 20s. If there is no real laxity, there’s not much to lift.
- i had hifu done twice and barely saw any difference.
- Hifu left a dent 😭 don’t use it

Love hifu, did one session lower face and I saw results so fast.
