7D Body HIFU
7D HIFU for the body is a non-invasive treatment using the same core MMFU (Macro & Micro Focused Ultrasound) technology as the facial treatment, but adapted for body contouring, fat reduction, and skin tightening. It applies high-intensity focused ultrasound energy to target subcutaneous fat layers and stimulate collagen for firmer, smoother body contours without surgery. For body treatments, it often utilizes macro-focused ultrasound cartridges, which have a larger focal point to cover bigger areas more efficiently and penetrate deeper to target fat.
How Does it Work?
Similar to the facial application, 7D HIFU delivers focused ultrasound energy, but for body contouring, it uses specific cartridges designed to reach deeper layers where subcutaneous fat resides (e.g., 6mm, 9mm, 13mm depths).
The high-intensity energy creates a thermo-mechanical effect that can:
- Destroy Fat Cells: The targeted heat effectively destroys fat cells in the treated area without harming the skin surface or surrounding tissues. The body then naturally processes and eliminates these disrupted fat cells over weeks and months.
- Stimulate Collagen: The heat also triggers collagen production in the dermal layers, leading to skin tightening and firming in the treated area. This helps improve skin laxity often associated with fat reduction or aging.

Benefits of 7D HIFU Body Treatment
- Non-Invasive Fat Reduction: Reduces localized fat deposits without surgery.
- Body Contouring & Slimming: Helps shape and contour areas like the abdomen, thighs, and flanks.
- Skin Tightening: Improves skin firmness and reduces sagging on the body.
- Cellulite Improvement: Can help improve the appearance of cellulite by targeting fat and tightening skin.
- Minimal Downtime: Allows for a quick return to regular activities.
- Targeted Treatment: Different deep-penetrating cartridges (6mm, 9mm, 13mm, sometimes up to 16mm) allow customization based on fat thickness and treatment area.
- Safe Technology: Destroys fat cells selectively while protecting the skin surface.
What Areas Can Be Treated?
7D HIFU can be used on various body areas where localized fat or skin laxity is a concern:
- Abdomen
- Flanks (“love handles”)
- Thighs (inner and outer)
- Buttocks
- Arms (upper)
- Back
- Chest (non-glandular areas for tightening)
- Axilla area
- Lower Legs / Calves
- Ankles
Important: Treatment avoids areas like the belly button, major nerves (e.g., sciatic nerve), bone, and the posterior superior iliac spine (PSIS). The appropriate cartridge depth is often selected based on fat caliper measurements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
- How long does a session take? Treatment time varies depending on the size and number of areas being treated, often around an hour per area.
- Is it painful? Sensations can vary, often described as tingling, warmth, or slight discomfort as the energy is delivered. It’s generally considered tolerable.
- How many sessions are needed? This depends on the individual’s goals and the amount of fat/laxity. While some see results after one session, multiple sessions (often 4-6 weeks apart) may be recommended for optimal body contouring.
- When will I see results? Some skin tightening may be noticed sooner, but fat reduction results appear gradually over several weeks to months as the body clears the disrupted fat cells. Full results might take 2-4 months.
- What is the downtime? Like the facial treatment, there is typically minimal to no downtime. Mild redness, swelling, or bruising in the treated area is possible but usually temporary.
- Are the results permanent? The fat cells destroyed by HIFU are permanently eliminated. However, maintaining a stable weight and healthy lifestyle is crucial to prevent remaining fat cells from expanding or new weight gain affecting the results. Skin tightening effects last based on the natural aging process and collagen degradation.
- Are there contraindications? Similar to facial HIFU: pregnancy/breastfeeding, open wounds, skin infections, metal implants in the area, bleeding disorders. It’s not a weight-loss treatment for obesity but for localized fat deposits and contouring.
