HIFU in Bangkok
Non-surgical lifting and tightening with Hybrid Linear HIFU—faster, more comfortable, and collagen-boosting.
Over 1.7K 5-Star Reviews
High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) is a trusted, non-surgical skin tightening treatment that lifts and firms the skin by stimulating collagen production deep beneath the surface.
At KKC Clinic, we use Hybrid Linear HIFU, a next-generation treatment that delivers energy in smooth, continuous lines for more efficient coverage, enhanced comfort, and natural-looking results.
Results may vary with each individual
How HIFU Lifts and Tightens the Skin
HIFU works by directing focused ultrasound energy into the deeper layers of the skin—typically at depths of 1.5mm, 3.0mm, and 4.5mm. This energy generates heat at precise points, stimulating collagen production.
One of the key targets of HIFU is the SMAS layer (Superficial Muscular Aponeurotic System)—the same foundational layer treated during surgical facelifts. By triggering collagen remodeling in this deeper layer, HIFU gradually lifts and tightens the skin over a period of 2 to 3 months, producing subtle yet noticeable improvements in tone and texture.
What Makes Hybrid Linear HIFU More Advanced?
Hybrid Linear HIFU improves upon earlier technologies by replacing the traditional point-by-point (dot-mode) energy delivery with a continuous linear approach. This innovation offers several advantages:
- Faster treatment times with broader, more efficient coverage
- Smoother energy distribution, resulting in greater comfort during the session
- Even results with less risk of patchiness or post-treatment redness
- Precision sculpting for delicate facial zones and effective treatment of larger body areas
We use LinearZ by Jeisys Medical, an advanced system that allows us to adjust treatment depth and energy delivery based on your needs.
Benefits of HIFU
HIFU delivers a safe, effective alternative to surgical skin lifting, with the following key benefits:
- Lifts sagging skin and restores natural facial contours
- Reduces fine lines and wrinkles around the forehead, eyes, and jaw
- Enhances skin elasticity and smoothness
- Stimulates natural collagen production over time
- No needles, no incisions, and no recovery time
- Suitable for all skin types
- Allows immediate return to normal activities
Where Can HIFU Be Used?
HIFU’s versatility allows treatment of both facial and body areas:
Face and Neck
The forehead and brows, under-eye area, cheeks, jawline, and double chin. It’s also effective for tightening loose skin on the neck and jowl area.
Body
Sagging skin on the upper arms, abdomen (especially post-pregnancy or weight loss), waistline, thighs, and other areas with mild skin laxity.
Is HIFU Right for You?
HIFU is best suited for individuals experiencing mild to moderate skin laxity. It’s an excellent choice if you:
- Are aged 30 or above and noticing early signs of aging
- Want to maintain skin firmness without surgery
- Prefer a non-invasive approach with minimal discomfort
HIFU may not be suitable if you have severe sagging, very thin skin, active skin infections or wounds, metal implants in the treatment area, or if you’re pregnant or breastfeeding.
A consultation will determine whether HIFU aligns with your needs and treatment goals.
What to Expect Before, During, and After HIFU
Before Treatment
During your consultation, a medical professional will assess your skin and design a personalized plan. You’ll be asked to avoid intense skin treatments, retinoids, and excessive sun exposure for 1 to 2 weeks beforehand.
During Treatment
The skin is cleansed and a conductive gel applied. The Hybrid Linear HIFU device then delivers focused energy to the targeted layers. You may feel a mild warmth or tingling sensation. Sessions typically last 30–90 minutes. Numbing cream is available if needed.
After Treatment
Most clients experience little to no downtime. Temporary redness or slight swelling may occur but usually fades within hours. You can return to your daily routine immediately. Apply SPF 50+ sunscreen and avoid excessive sun exposure to protect the treated area.
When to Expect Results—and How Long They Last
- Initial improvements may be noticeable right after treatment.
- Full lifting and tightening develop over 2 to 3 months as collagen continues to rebuild.
- Results typically last 6 to 12 months, depending on your age, skin condition, and lifestyle.
- Maintenance treatments once or twice a year are recommended to preserve results.
This gradual, natural progression supports long-term skin improvement without disruption to your routine.

- 600 lines – 19,999 THB (e.g., lower face and neck)

HIFU vs. Ultherapy, Thermage, and Facelift
Here’s how our non-surgical lifting options compare:
- Ultherapy uses focused ultrasound with real-time imaging to precisely target the deeper layers of skin. It’s especially well suited for clients seeking visual precision and long-term lifting in areas like the brow, jawline, and neck.
- Hybrid Linear HIFU delivers energy in continuous lines rather than individual points, allowing for smoother coverage, shorter treatment times, and enhanced comfort. It’s ideal for clients prioritizing treatment speed and overall comfort, especially in larger or more sensitive areas.
- Thermage uses radiofrequency to treat surface layers of the skin, improving texture and elasticity, though it does not reach the deeper SMAS layer targeted by HIFU.
- Surgical Facelift remains the most dramatic option for lifting but requires anesthesia, incisions, and recovery time. HIFU treatments offer a non-invasive alternative with gradual, natural-looking results.
All three technologies—Ultherapy, Hybrid Linear HIFU, and Thermage—offer effective, non-surgical options for lifting and tightening the skin. During your consultation, our team will recommend the most appropriate approach based on your goals, treatment area, and skin condition.
