CHARACTERISTICSHyph is
Medical HIFU is a lifting treatment device that utilizes high-intensity focused ultrasound energy. It is called HIFU, an acronym derived from High Intensity Focused Ultrasound. By concentrating ultrasound waves to deliver thermal energy deep into the skin, it targets the SMAS layer (superficial musculoaponeurotic system), the skin's underlying structure, and is expected to lift sagging skin from deep within.
Bianca Clinic has introduced UltraCel® Zi, the latest version of the flagship HIFU series "ULTRAcel." It features bidirectional irradiation and exceptionally fast single-shot irradiation speed. Furthermore, UltraCel® Zi offers a non-surgical lifting treatment that addresses not only sagging cheeks and double chins but also the eye area. It effectively targets fine lines around the eyes, under-eye areas, and drooping eyelids.
The UltraCell Zi® uses multiple cartridges tailored to the treatment area. It also features two distinct modes, allowing for instant changes in irradiation methods by switching between them.
・Dot mode for spot-like irradiation
・Linear mode for wide-area irradiation
Furthermore, a specialized sensor automatically detects the return point of irradiation, preventing overlapping irradiation to the same area. This enables uniform and highly safe treatments. Additionally, the UltraCell Zi® is a medical HIFU device that addresses issues with uneven irradiation and heat distribution, which were challenges with previous models.
Dot Mode Hyphen｜Heat penetrates to the SMAS layer for tightening
HIFU, which targets deep skin tightening and lifting effects, utilizes dot-mode irradiation. The treatment commonly referred to as HIFU specifically refers to this dot-mode irradiation. Its defining feature is the precise delivery of heat to deep skin layers, including the SMAS layer (fascia layer), by concentrating ultrasound energy onto a single point (dot).
The treated area reaches approximately 65°C, causing proteins to denature and contract. This process lifts the skin from within. Furthermore, as the heat-damaged dermis repairs itself, collagen and elastin production is supported, promoting improved firmness and elasticity.
The cartridges can target different depths: 1.5mm for the epidermis, 3.0mm for the subcutaneous fat layer, and 4.5mm for the SMAS layer. By delivering heat to each layer, both a “lifting effect” that lifts sagging skin and a “tightening effect” that firms the skin can be expected.
Linear Mode Lipo Hyf｜Targets Extensive Fat Layers
LipoHIFU, which delivers ultrasound energy in a linear pattern, is a HIFU treatment specifically designed to reduce not only sagging but also fat volume. Compared to the dot mode, which delivers energy in points, the linear mode can target a broader area of the fat layer.
To deliver uniform heat over a wide area, the temperature at the irradiation site is slightly lower than in dot mode, approximately 58°C. This temperature induces thermal denaturation in human fat cells, leading to fat dissolution and resulting in expected fat volume reduction.
It is particularly effective for stubborn areas like double chins, jawlines, and sagging around the mouth that are difficult to target through diet alone. Its key feature is the dual effect of contouring—reducing fat while sculpting facial contours—and tightening—firming the skin—achieved simultaneously.
Hyftight｜Maintain mild sagging and fine lines
Hyftight is a treatment that uses a 2.0mm cartridge to deliver rapid, continuous irradiation to the superficial layers. It not only addresses mild sagging and tightens areas close to the skin's surface, but also offers skin rejuvenation effects such as reducing fine lines and improving skin firmness.
＜Expected Effects of Hyfite＞
Improvement in sagging cheeks
Reducing the appearance of nasolabial folds
Reduce the appearance of drooping eyelids and fine lines around the eyes
Full-face lift and slimming effect
A major feature is the use of cartridges that can treat delicate, thin-skinned areas like the philtrum, around the nose, and the edges of the eyes—areas where HIFU treatment was previously difficult. While Dot Mode is typically administered every 3 to 6 months and Linear Mode every 6 months, HIFU Tight enables frequent maintenance treatments at a pace of once a month.
For those concerned about mild sagging, seeking firmer skin, or wanting to try medical HIFU, HIFU Tight is ideal. Furthermore, combining standard HIFU treatment with HIFU Tight can help enhance the longevity of the lifting effect.
Benefits
MERITAddresses both sagging and fat
Medical HIFU is a treatment that, by selecting different modes, can address not only skin tightening but also fat reduction. By choosing or combining modes and cartridges according to the desired outcome, it effectively achieves both facial contouring and targeted fat reduction.
Aiming for natural changes without using a scalpel
Medical HIFU is a non-invasive treatment that delivers thermal energy deep into the skin. It aims to achieve natural lifting and fat reduction without damaging the skin's surface.
Sagging treatment with minimal downtime
Medical HIFU is a sagging treatment with minimal downtime. You can apply makeup and bathe immediately after the procedure, with little impact on daily life, making it an easy option even for those concerned about downtime.
Recommended Features
RECOMMENDED POINTSMedical HIFU can also be used in combination with Volnuma.
Bianca Clinic offers both standalone medical HIFU treatments and combination therapy with Voluma. Voluma excels at skin tightening, while medical HIFU specializes in lifting. These devices target different layers of the skin. Combining both devices in a combination therapy allows for the even distribution of thermal energy across all layers from the dermis to the SMAS layer.
Both Volnuma and medical HIFU are characterized by minimal downtime. If you seek highly effective sagging treatment or are considering sagging treatment with minimal downtime, please feel free to consult with us.
Boost skin firmness and elasticity while addressing sagging
Medical HIFU is a treatment that not only addresses sagging but also enhances skin firmness and elasticity. The dermal fibroblasts that undergo thermal damage from Medical HIFU stimulate collagen and elastin production during the recovery process.
The effects are typically noticeable approximately 2 to 3 months after treatment. This process continues over the medium to long term. As firmness and elasticity improve, the skin appears tighter, leading to a more beautiful complexion. This is a sagging treatment that can be expected to deliver such results.
How to reduce the risk of sunken cheeks with medical HIFU
Medical HIFU and other sagging treatments carry a significant risk of causing sunken cheeks. To prevent sunken cheeks with medical HIFU, it is crucial to examine the patient's degree of sagging and facial balance based on anatomical physiology, and then determine the treatment areas and number of sessions.
Bianca Clinic employs numerous physicians with proven expertise and experience. We carefully assess each individual's sagging condition and administer treatment with meticulous attention to prevent hollow cheeks. Beyond medical HIFU, we offer a wide range of sagging treatment options. Considering risks, we can also propose combined sagging treatments from various angles.

Frequently Asked Questions About HIFU/UltraCell Zi
Q&AWhat is the difference between medical HIFU and Volnuma?
Medical HIFU and Volnuma both aim to tighten and lift the skin, but they differ in the layers they target and the energy they use. HIFU, which uses ultrasound, targets the deeper SMAS layer, while Volnuma, which uses radiofrequency energy, primarily targets the skin's dermis and fat layers. Because they act on different areas, combining Medical HIFU and Volnuma treatments can enhance the lifting effect.
Is the medical HIFU treatment painful?
The sensation of pain varies from person to person, but medical HIFU may cause slight discomfort or a feeling of heat. While the procedure can be performed without anesthesia, it can also be administered with anesthesia. If you are concerned about pain, please consult us beforehand.
When can I start to feel the effects of medical HIFU?
You may notice results immediately after treatment, but the effects are said to be most noticeable 2 to 3 months later as damaged skin regenerates and collagen and elastin production increases, lasting up to approximately 6 months.
Who is Medical HIFU recommended for?
For those concerned about sagging, Dot Mode HIFU is chosen. For those also seeking targeted fat reduction, Linear Mode Lipohifu is selected. For individuals concerned about mild sagging, those wanting to improve skin firmness, or those interested in trying medical HIFU, consider HIFU Tight.
Which is better to receive: the hyphen in dot mode or the lipo hyphen in linear mode?
Dot Mode HIFU is ideal for those concerned about sagging. Linear Mode HIFU is popular among those seeking localized volume reduction in areas like the jawline and under the chin.
Can Dot Mode Hyphen and Linear Mode Repo Hyphen be performed simultaneously?
It is possible. By combining Dot Mode hyaluronic acid with Linear Mode lipo hyaluronic acid, you can aim for a more refined, smaller face in a single treatment.
Can I receive medical HIFU treatment during pregnancy or while breastfeeding?
No. We ask that individuals who are pregnant or breastfeeding refrain from undergoing medical HIFU treatments.
Besides medical HIFU and Voluma, what other treatments are recommended for sagging skin?
Bianca Clinic offers a wide range of sagging treatments, including surgical procedures like facelifts with incisions, as well as thread lifts, Thermage, Potenza, Embrace RF, and Thermacool. We will recommend the sagging treatment best suited to your concerns and condition, so please come in for a consultation.
How long does the medical HIFU treatment take?
The duration varies depending on the treatment and the area being treated, but the following is a general guideline.
Dot Mode (Full Face): Approximately 10–20 minutes
Linear Mode (Face Line + Under Chin): Approximately 30 minutes
HIFU (Full Face): Approximately 10–20 minutes
Please note that if anesthetic cream is used, additional time will be required beforehand.
Will there be any disruption to my daily life after the medical HIFU treatment?
No. You can apply makeup immediately after the treatment. Swelling or itching may occur in rare cases, but these are temporary reactions.
How many sessions of medical HIFU are needed to see results?
Many patients experience noticeable lifting and skin tightening after just one session of medical HIFU. However, depending on the degree of sagging and age, undergoing 2 to 3 sessions may yield more pronounced results.
What is the ideal frequency for medical HIFU treatments?
The effects of medical HIFU are said to last approximately 3 to 6 months. For those wishing to maintain the results, the following treatment frequency is recommended.
Dot Mode: Once every 3 to 6 months
Linear Mode: Once every six months
Hyftight (for mild tightening and skin texture improvement): Monthly maintenance is also possible.
The optimal frequency varies depending on your skin condition and desired results, so we will discuss a plan with you during your initial consultation.
Can I receive medical HIFU treatment on sunburned skin?
Immediately after sunburn, the skin retains heat, which may lead to unexpected complications. While medical HIFU is suitable for all skin tones, we kindly request that you schedule your treatment after your sunburn has subsided.
Can I receive medical HIFU after Botox injections or hyaluronic acid injections?
We kindly request that procedures such as Botox injections and hyaluronic acid injections be scheduled after your medical HIFU treatment. Please consult your physician for details.
