HIFU Body Contouring Treatment
Mankind has been pursuing body contouring since at least the 16th century when women were shaping their waists with whalebone corsets. Today, the technology has changed completely but the goal remains the same – to optimize the smoothness, definition, or silhouette of a person. Lipoplasty is the fourth most popular cosmetic surgical procedure performed in the world. However, it is not only expensive but also has significant downtime, morbidity, and mortality. This is the reason why more and more people are flocking towards non-surgical ways of body contouring. One of the treatments that have taken the world by storm and quickly became a favorite of celebrities is HIFU (body).
What is HIFU (body)?
HIFU body contouring is a safe and effective alternative to liposuction and lipoplasty. It can be used to target specific areas of localized fat deposits in the body and to improve the appearance of cellulite. HIFU is an affordable alternative to body contouring for people who wish to improve their appearance without surgery. HIFU for body contouring treatment is an ideal option for shifting those last few centimeters of stubborn fat off the body. It uses the latest body shaping ultrasound technology called high-intensity focused ultrasound called HIFU. HIFU is an excellent body contouring treatment as it is quick, painless, and has no downtime involved. Plus, the added bonus is that it tightens and rejuvenates the skin in the treated area.
How does HIFU (body) work?
During HIFU body contouring treatment, high-intensity ultrasound energy is focused on the targeted fat, like the way a magnifying glass works. The ultrasound energy passes through the skin and targets the fat beneath the surface at 60-70 degrees to permanently destroy the fat cells. Over the next few weeks and months, the body naturally removes the destroyed fat which is drained to the liver via the natural lymphatic channels, leaving you with a more contoured and firmer silhouette.
Further results of skin tightening can continue up to 3 months after a single session as new collagen and elastin take time to develop. Our medical-grade HIFU device is designed to non- invasively deliver focused, high-intensity ultrasound energy directly to the fatty tissue under the skin so as to permanently destroy targeted fat cells. This process is known as thermo- coagulation and it doesn’t cause any damage to the overlying skin layers or surrounding tissues. This allows our experts to deliver the best HIFU treatment for body in Delhi.
Who is HIFU (body) for?
HIFU (body) is a good option for people who follow a proper diet and exercise regularly and are looking for targeted fat reduction instead of overall weight reduction. Anyone who is mildly above ideal weight and is unable to shift stubborn fat pockets can benefit greatly from opting for HIFU fat reduction treatment for body contouring. Ideal for sculpting smaller areas, ideal candidates of HIFU (body) should be within 5-10 kg of their ideal weight range. Ideally, anyone who is looking to reduce their size in different areas of the body and has accumulated fat under the skin can enjoy the benefits of HIFU (body) treatment. The goal of this treatment is the reduction of accumulated fatt and contouring of the body.
The most important thing to note when it comes to HIFU (body) treatment is that it is only effective for spot fat reduction. Therefore, this may not be an effective way to reduce total body fat for people who suffer from obesity. If you’re seeking HIFU body contouring treatment in Delhi then it is always best to consult a professional before making the final decision whether to go for the procedure or not.

Why should you choose HIFU (body)?
1.It reduces the appearance of Cellulit
Cellulite is one of the biggest enemies when it comes to achieving one’s dream body. HIFU can help reduce the appearance of cellulite while reducing your body circumference. HIFU delivers a tightened skin and cellulite reduction while unwanted lumps and bumps appear smoother and more defined. Highly resistant to topical treatments and even weight loss, cellulite may just meet its match with HIFU.
2. It is non-invasive
Invasive body sculpting treatments like liposuction are usually associated with a specific risk of surgery and have a long recovery period which requires extensive aftercare. HIFU is a completely non-invasive procedure that allows one to achieve their dream body without any scalpel, surgery, or anesthesia. One can resume their daily activities immediately after the treatment.
3. It delivers accurate body sculpting
Different patients have different body shapes and sizes and the way their body accumulates fat also differs from one another. In this case, the functionality of other body sculpting machines and methods is limited and they normally require several hours or sessions of treatment in one area. However, HIFU body sculpting allows your practitioner to control the place and the amount of energy being delivered and can therefore easily give the clients the desired results in just a one-hour session.
4. It has better penetration depth
With other non-invasive body sculpting technologies such as radiofrequency and laser, the energy is absorbed at a high level or spreads near the skin surface, thus limiting the penetration depth into subcutaneous adipose tissue resulting in only temporary results. The ultrasound energy of HIFU (body) however penetrates different layers of the skin and reaches the targeted fat without damaging the skin or the surrounding tissues. Other ultrasound imaging devices often use low-frequency energy which increases the number of sessions required and doesn’t guarantee the desired results. HIFU body sculpting, on the other hand, uses high-intensity focused ultrasound energy to break down subcutaneous fat,delivering consistent and predictable results in just one session.
5. It has no downtime
HIFU (body) is a completely non-invasive treatment that doesn’t require any surgery, scalpel, needles, or anesthesia. There are no known side effects of the treatment and absolutely no downtime is required. With sessions that usually last anywhere between 15-60 minutes depending on the treatment area, one can easily squeeze a HIFU session anywhere in their day and resume their daily activities immediately after their appointment, making HIFU (body) an excellent lunchtime procedure.
Side Effects
There are no major side effects of HIFU (body) as it doesn’t damage the surface of the skin. After the treatment, the skin may appear flushed but the redness also disappears within a few hours. Some people experience some mild swelling, numbness, and bruising which can last for several days to a couple of weeks at most. HIFU is one of the most popular and safest body contouring techniques that has been approved not only by doctors but also by clients.
