4D HIFU Face and Body Treatment Pre-Care:

  1. Consultation:

    • Pre-Treatment Assessment: Schedule a consultation with your practitioner to discuss your medical history, skin type, and specific treatment goals. This helps ensure that HIFU is suitable for you.

  2. Avoid Sun Exposure:

    • Protect Your Skin: Avoid direct sun exposure and tanning beds for at least 2 weeks before your treatment. Sun exposure can increase sensitivity and affect the results.

  3. Skin Preparation:

    • Cleanse and Moisturize: Ensure your skin is clean and well-moisturized. Avoid using harsh exfoliants or strong active ingredients (e.g., retinols, AHAs) for at least 5 days before your treatment.

  4. Avoid Certain Products:

    • No Irritating Products: Refrain from using any skincare products that might irritate your skin, such as those containing retinoids or acids, for at least one week before your appointment.

  5. Hydration:

    • Stay Hydrated: Drink plenty of water in the days leading up to your treatment. Proper hydration helps improve skin elasticity and overall treatment results.

  6. Medications:

    • Consult Your Doctor: Inform your practitioner about any medications you are taking, especially if they affect skin sensitivity or healing.

  7. Avoid Alcohol:

    • No Alcohol: Avoid consuming alcohol for at least 24 hours before your treatment, as it can increase the risk of bruising and swelling.

  8. No Makeup:

    • Clean Skin: Arrive with a clean face and avoid wearing makeup, skincare products, or sunscreen on the treatment area.

4D HIFU Face and Body Treatment Post-Care:

  1. Avoid Sun Exposure:

    • Sun Protection: Avoid direct sunlight and tanning beds for at least 2 weeks after your treatment. Use a broad-spectrum sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher to protect your skin.

  2. Skin Care:

    • Moisturize: Apply a gentle, hydrating moisturizer to the treated area to keep the skin nourished and to help with any potential dryness or tightness.

    • Avoid Harsh Products: Do not use exfoliants, retinols, or other potent skincare products on the treated area for at least one week.

  3. Avoid Heat and Sweat:

    • No Hot Baths or Saunas: Avoid hot baths, saunas, and steam rooms for at least 48 hours after your treatment to prevent irritation and excessive heat exposure.

    • Avoid Excessive Sweating: Refrain from strenuous exercise and activities that cause heavy sweating for 24-48 hours post-treatment.

  4. Gentle Handling:

    • Avoid Rubbing: Do not rub or massage the treated area excessively. Gently cleanse the skin with a mild cleanser and avoid vigorous scrubbing.

  5. Hydration:

    • Continue Hydration: Keep drinking plenty of water to help maintain skin elasticity and support the body’s natural healing process.

  6. No Makeup:

    • Wait Before Applying Makeup: Avoid applying makeup for at least 24 hours post-treatment to allow the skin to breathe and recover.

  7. Monitor Skin Response:

    • Watch for Changes: Expect some redness, swelling, or tenderness in the treated area, which is normal. If you experience severe discomfort, unusual swelling, or other concerning symptoms, contact your practitioner.

  8. Avoid Alcohol:

    • No Alcohol: Continue to avoid alcohol for at least 48 hours after your treatment to minimize the risk of bruising and swelling.

  9. Follow-Up Care:

    • Adhere to Practitioner Advice: Follow any specific aftercare instructions provided by your practitioner. They may offer personalized advice based on your skin type and treatment area.

Maintenance and Long-Term Care:

  1. Regular Treatments:

    • Follow-Up Sessions: Discuss with your practitioner about the need for follow-up treatments. HIFU typically provides long-lasting results, but periodic sessions may be recommended for optimal maintenance.

  2. Healthy Lifestyle:

    • Maintain Healthy Habits: Continue to follow a healthy lifestyle, including a balanced diet and regular exercise, to support overall skin health and treatment results.

  3. Skin Protection:

    • Ongoing Sun Protection: Continue using sunscreen daily to protect your skin from UV damage and maintain the benefits of your treatment.
