Lifting without the surgery – Doublo

It is natural for everyone to want young and firm skin, but there are many people who are unable to take a long vacation for surgery in a busy social life. In such cases, we recommend lifting procedures that do not require incision and recovery period.

Nowadays, with the development of technology, many home care lifting machines and products (cosmetics) are on the market. However, machines used by ordinary people, not medical staff, are bound to be less effective. For safe and effective procedures, you should visit a hospital and get a procedure from an expert. The most famous of them is HIFU (High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound).

What is HIFU (High Intensity Focused Ultrasound)?

HIFU stands for High Intensity Focused Ultrasounds. In Doublo non-surgical lifting treatment HIFU energy is focused at the SMAS layer 3 to 4.5 mm below the skin surface to produce a thermal coagulation zone smaller than 1 mm. At this zone, a high thermal reaction occurs at a temperature of 60 ° C or higher, which causes the SMAS layer contraction and collagen remodeling to skin tightening and lifting.

Doublo is a simpler procedure, therefore it is less effective than surgery. If you want a noticeable, dramatic effect, I recommend anti-aging surgery.

Rather than lifting the skin like surgery, it is right to say that Doublo treatment – prevents sagging by tightening the skin. These types of procedures require maintenance through constant procedures.
It is a preferred procedure for office workers or mothers of children who do not have time because no recovery period is required. However, no matter how simple the procedure is, it is very important to get it from an experienced expert. At JW Plastic Surgery Centre, an anti-aging specialized doctor is performing procedures.
