Ultraformer III is an advanced High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) system designed to tighten, lift and rejuvenate the skin without surgery or downtime. By stimulating the body’s natural collagen production, Ultraformer III improves skin laxity, enhances facial definition and creates a firmer, more youthful appearance. It is an ideal treatment for patients seeking a non-surgical alternative to a facelift.

As we age, collagen and elastin gradually decline, while the deeper support structures of the face become weaker. This natural ageing process leads to skin laxity, loss of definition around the jawline, sagging cheeks and the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Ultraformer III addresses these underlying structural changes by delivering precisely focused ultrasound energy deep beneath the surface of the skin, stimulating new collagen formation and tightening existing collagen fibres.

The Ultraformer III system uses highly focused ultrasound to generate precise thermal coagulation points at temperatures of approximately 65–70°C. These carefully controlled treatment zones trigger the body’s natural wound-healing response, encouraging long-term collagen remodelling without damaging the skin’s surface. As new collagen develops over the following weeks and months, the skin gradually becomes firmer, tighter and more lifted.

Ultraformer III features a range of specialised transducers that target different depths within the skin. The 4.5 mm transducer reaches the Superficial Musculoaponeurotic System (SMAS), the same structural layer addressed during a surgical facelift. The 3.0 mm transducer stimulates collagen production within the deeper dermis, while the 1.5 mm transducer improves skin texture, elasticity and surface firmness. Multiple depths are often treated during the same session to achieve comprehensive facial rejuvenation.

Ultraformer III can be used to treat the face, neck and selected areas of the body where skin laxity is present. It is particularly effective for lifting the eyebrows, improving the jawline, tightening loose skin beneath the chin and reducing mild to moderate facial sagging. Patients interested in other ultrasound-based lifting procedures can also learn more about HIFU Treatment, while those seeking comprehensive facial rejuvenation may benefit from combining treatment with a Non-Surgical Facelift approach.

The procedure is quick, comfortable and requires virtually no downtime. Before treatment, an ultrasound gel is applied to the skin to ensure optimal energy delivery. Most patients experience only mild redness or slight tenderness immediately afterwards, with occasional temporary numbness that typically resolves within a few days. As collagen continues to regenerate, results develop gradually over the following two to three months and continue to improve over time.

Depending on your individual goals, Ultraformer III may also be combined with treatments such as Profhilo Treatment, Laser Skin Tightening or Dermal Fillers to further enhance facial contour, skin quality and overall rejuvenation. Every treatment plan is individually tailored following a comprehensive consultation.

Professor Firas Al-Niaimi is internationally recognised for his expertise in non-surgical facial rejuvenation and has published numerous scientific papers on advanced skin tightening technologies. His extensive experience with Ultraformer III ensures every treatment is carefully customised to deliver natural-looking, long-lasting lifting and tightening results while maintaining facial harmony and expression.
