Medical HIFU Ultraformer MPT

Ultraformer MPT is a state-of-the-art lift-up machine that is a further evolution of the conventional HIFU (HIFU) device. Its most significant feature is that it can now deliver both "point" and "line" irradiation. In addition to the precise point irradiation of conventional HIFU, the newly equipped "Micropulse (MP) mode" delivers energy in a linear fashion, enabling a smoother treatment in a shorter time.

In addition, Ultraformer MPT uses multiple depth cartridges (1.5mm/2.0mm/3.0mm/4.5mm) to approach multiple layers from the dermal layer to SMAS (superficial fascia). This allows for a three-dimensional facial effect, not only firming of the skin's surface, but also tightening of the face line and improvement of sagging.

The Ultraformer MPT is also suitable for first-time HIFU users.

 

The safe and careful process makes HIFU treatment a safe and comfortable experience even for first-timers. We take full responsibility for medical HIFU treatment with the Ultraformer MPT, from pre-treatment counseling to aftercare. We will suggest the most appropriate irradiation method according to each individual's sagging condition and skin type.

1. counseling and medical examination

First, the doctor or staff member in charge will carefully listen to your concerns and wishes. We will then check the degree of skin laxity and thickness, and determine the depth and extent of irradiation. We will also explain about concomitant treatments and precautions.

2. face wash and makeup removal

In order to keep the treatment area clean, you will be asked to remove all makeup and sebum. This is an important preparation to minimize the burden on the skin.

Marking and gel application

Special markings are made to clarify the irradiation points, and a special gel is applied to facilitate the transmission of ultrasound.

4. irradiation with the Ultraformer MPT

The Ultraformer MPT is used according to the depth and area determined, with point or linear irradiation optimized for each area. The treatment is virtually painless and can be performed in a relaxed, conversational atmosphere.

5. cleansing and aftercare

After irradiation, the gel is wiped off and the skin is soothed and moisturized as needed. Many patients are able to put on makeup and leave immediately, with little or no special care or downtime.

Although this is a highly safe procedure, please be sure to correctly understand the rare reactions that may occur.

Ultraformer MPT is a non-invasive procedure that does not involve incisions or injections, and is a medical hyphae device that has been proven safe and effective both in Japan and abroad. However, because it is a medical procedure, the following adverse reactions may occur in rare cases, depending on the individual's constitution and skin condition.

Main side effects that may occur after the procedure

• Redness and mild swelling
  Temporary redness, burning, and mild swelling may occur immediately after irradiation, but usually subside within a few hours to a day.
• Mild discomfort or pain in muscles
  Because the deep layer (SMAS fascia) is irradiated, you may feel discomfort like mild muscle pain when moving your face for a few days to a week.
• Internal bleeding and swelling (very rare)
  Minute internal bleeding or swelling may occur in areas where the skin is thin. This also usually improves spontaneously within a few days.
• Rare numbness due to nerve irritation
  Although extremely rare, cases of temporary tingling and numbness have been reported. It usually resolves spontaneously within a few days to a few weeks.

To ensure the safety of your treatment

• Pregnant, lactating women and those with pacemakers are not allowed to undergo the procedure.
• The doctor will adjust the irradiation energy and area after thoroughly examining the skin condition.
• If you experience any symptoms of concern, please contact the clinic immediately.

Q1: How long does it take to feel the effects of the Ultraformer MPT?

A. Some people feel a tightening of the facial line immediately after the treatment, but the full effect appears after about 1 to 2 months. This is because the collagen stimulated by the irradiation is rebuilt and the skin gradually tightens. For those who desire higher results, we recommend continuing the treatment on a regular basis.

Q2: How often should I take the course?

A. Although a single treatment is effective, most patients continue with maintenance once every six months to a year. The appropriate frequency depends on the progression of sagging and the age of the patient, so we will suggest the optimal pace of treatment during the consultation.

Q3: Is there any pain? Can I do it for the first time?

A. Ultraformer MPT is characterized by less pain than conventional HIFU. Although some tingling and heat may be felt depending on the area, many patients do not require anesthesia, making it a safe procedure even for first-time patients.

Q4: Can I make up or go out immediately after the surgery?

A. Yes, it is possible. Since there is almost no downtime, you can wear makeup immediately after the procedure and go home. However, if redness or burning remains, we recommend that you use only moisturizer-centered skin care on the same day.
