Ultherapy vs HIFU
Thinking about a non-surgical facelift? We offer ultherapy-treatments with our machine Ulthera. It is the only Ultherapy machine approved by the FDA – the highest regulatory body in the US for the treatment of facial tightening.
At Conturkliniken, we are proud of our Ulthera machine, there are 2–3 machines in Sweden, and is a relatively expensive purchase. The cheaper copy HiFu seems to be more common. It is much cheaper, and the treatment is then cheaper to the patient – but far from as effective, and we take the opportunity to raise a warning finger about treatments with it.
HiFu is a pirate machine, a cheaper machine that lacks an important part – the screen where you can see the exact depth of the treatment. The risk with this copy is the loss of subcutaneous fat on the face.
