Ultraformer HIFU at AOKLINIK: Comprehensive Face and Neck Lifting Solution
Ultraformer HIFU (High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound) offers a non-surgical option to lift and tone loose or sagging skin on the face and neck with no downtime. Using advanced ultrasound technology, Ultraformer delivers targeted energy to the deep layers of skin tissue to stimulate collagen production, resulting in long-lasting lifting and tightening effects without disrupting the skin's surface.
Differences Between Ultraformer, Ultraformer MPT, and Ultherapy
It's essential to distinguish between the various types of HIFU treatments available to make an informed choice:
-
Ultraformer: Known for its versatility, Ultraformer provides effective lifting and tightening of the skin on both face and neck. It uses precise ultrasound energy to stimulate collagen synthesis at different depths, allowing for tailored treatment of various skin concerns.
-
Ultraformer MPT: An upgrade to the standard Ultraformer, MPT (Micro-Pulse Technology) delivers more precise energy with controlled pulses, reducing discomfort while providing enhanced results. It's designed for patients seeking a more comfortable experience with optimized outcomes.
-
Ultherapy: Ultherapy is another brand of HIFU technology that focuses specifically on skin tightening and lifting. It's FDA-cleared and uses ultrasound imaging to precisely target deeper layers beneath the skin, similar to Ultraformer. However, Ultherapy is often perceived as having slightly more intense sensations during treatment due to its delivery method.
What Can Be Treated with Ultraformer MPT?
The Ultraformer MPT is a cutting-edge, non-invasive treatment designed to address a wide range of aesthetic concerns by using advanced High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) technology.

Know Your Treatment: Choosing the Right HIFU Machine
When selecting a HIFU treatment, it's crucial to be aware of the brand and technology behind it. Look for authentic, clinically-approved machines like Ultraformer and Ultherapy, as these devices have undergone rigorous testing and are known for their effectiveness and safety. Unfortunately, some clinics may use unverified or counterfeit equipment that can be less effective or even unsafe.
-
Verify the Machine: Always ask for the brand name of the equipment being used and do some research on its effectiveness and approval status.
-
Beware of Fake Treatments: Unauthorized machines or treatments not performing as claimed can lead to subpar results or potential risks. A trusted clinic will provide transparency and detailed information about the machine they use.
FAQs on Ultraformer HIFU & Ultraformer MPT at AOKLINIK
1. What does Ultraformer HIFU do?
Ultraformer HIFU uses focused ultrasound energy to create thermal coagulation in targeted skin tissue layers. This stimulates the body’s natural collagen production, leading to gradual lifting, tightening, and skin rejuvenation. Unlike more invasive treatments, Ultraformer HIFU leaves the skin’s surface intact, making it a safe, non-invasive option for facial and body contouring.
Additionally, Ultraformer MPT (Micro-Pulse Technology) offers enhanced comfort with its advanced micro-pulse technology, reducing discomfort during the procedure while delivering precise results. It can be used for both facial lifting and body contouring.
2. How long do the results last?
Patients may notice some initial improvements within a week of treatment, but the most significant results develop over 2-3 months as collagen remodeling takes place. The effects of the treatment can last up to a year, depending on factors like age, skin condition, and lifestyle. Regular maintenance sessions every 6-12 months are recommended to sustain the results and prolong the benefits.
3. Will the treatment be painful?
Pain levels vary depending on individual tolerance, but most patients report mild discomfort, such as warmth or tingling, during the procedure. This sensation is a sign that collagen production is being activated. For those with lower pain tolerance, Ultraformer MPT offers a more comfortable experience due to its advanced technology, which delivers energy in micro-pulses, minimizing discomfort.
4. How does HIFU work for skin tightening?
HIFU works by bypassing the skin’s surface and delivering focused ultrasound energy at specific depths, targeting the SMAS (Superficial Muscular Aponeurotic System) layer, which is the same layer addressed during surgical facelifts. This energy stimulates collagen production, which leads to natural lifting and tightening of the skin. The use of ultrasound imaging during the treatment ensures that the energy is delivered to the most beneficial layers of the skin, ensuring optimal and tailored results.
5. What’s the difference between Ultraformer, Ultraformer MPT, and Ultherapy?
-
Ultherapy is a well-known HIFU brand and is often recognized for being one of the first devices to be FDA-approved for non-surgical facelifts. It uses ultrasound imaging to target precise layers of skin for collagen production.
-
Ultraformer is another brand of HIFU technology that also targets deep layers of skin, but it offers versatility with more treatment settings and can address both facial and body concerns.
-
Ultraformer MPT goes a step further with Micro-Pulse Technology, offering patients a more comfortable treatment experience. The micro-pulses reduce discomfort while still delivering effective results for both facial lifting and body contouring.
6. How can I ensure my HIFU treatment uses genuine equipment?
It’s important to know what equipment is being used for your treatment. Make sure to ask your practitioner about the brand and model of the machine being used, and verify its authenticity. At AOKLINIK, we only use certified, original medical devices, ensuring that you receive safe, effective treatments with proven results. Beware of counterfeit devices or misleading claims about the technology, as these may pose risks or fail to deliver the expected results. Always check for proper certification, MDA Registration and ask for more information about the machine used.
Medical Device Authority Registration No.: GC9728724-174234, GB5454723-151679
7. Are there any side effects?
HIFU treatments, including Ultraformer and Ultraformer MPT, are non-invasive and typically come with minimal side effects. You may experience mild redness, swelling, or tingling immediately after the procedure, but these symptoms usually subside within a few hours. Since the treatment doesn’t break the skin’s surface, there’s no downtime, and you can return to your regular activities right after the session.
