HIFU Eye Lift

Following your HIFU Eye Lift treatment, it is important to care for your skin correctly to support the natural collagen-building process, maximise your results and minimise the risk of irritation. It is normal to experience some temporary side effects following treatment, including: * Mild redness. * Slight swelling, particularly around the upper eyelids. * Tenderness or sensitivity to touch. * A tingling or tight sensation. * Mild bruising in some cases. These effects are usually mild and settle within a few hours to several days, although some tenderness may persist for up to 2 weeks. As HIFU stimulates your body's natural collagen production, results develop gradually over the following 3-6 months, with continued improvement for several months. To support healing: * Keep the treated area clean and avoid touching your face unnecessarily. * Apply a gentle moisturiser if recommended by your practitioner. * Stay well hydrated by drinking plenty of water. * Avoid rubbing or massaging the treated area. For the first 24–48 hours: * Avoid hot baths, hot showers, saunas, steam rooms and hot tubs. * Avoid vigorous exercise or activities that cause excessive sweating. * Avoid swimming pools and chlorinated water. * Avoid applying makeup around the treated area for at least 24 hours, or until advised by your practitioner. * Avoid heavily fragranced or potentially irritating skincare products. For the first 5–7 days: * Avoid retinol, retinoids, AHAs, BHAs, glycolic acid, salicylic acid and exfoliating products around the treated area. * Avoid chemical peels, microneedling, laser treatments, IPL or other energy-based procedures on the treated area until advised by your practitioner. * Continue using a gentle cleanser and fragrance-free moisturiser. * Avoid rubbing or applying excessive pressure to the eye area. The skin around your eyes will be more sensitive following treatment. * Apply a broad-spectrum SPF 30–50 daily to the surrounding treated skin. * Reapply sunscreen every 2 hours when outdoors. * Avoid direct sun exposure and sunbeds for at least 2 weeks after treatment. * Wear UV-protective sunglasses and a wide-brimmed hat when spending time outdoors. Protecting your skin from UV exposure helps reduce the risk of pigmentation changes and supports optimal collagen production. HIFU Eye Lift stimulates your body's natural collagen production, with results continuing to improve over time. To maintain the best outcome: * Follow the personalised skincare advice provided by your practitioner. * Keep your skin well hydrated. * Use SPF 30–50 every day. * Maintain a consistent medical-grade skincare routine where appropriate. * Attend any recommended review appointments or maintenance treatments to help prolong your results. ## When to Contact the Clinic Please contact Body Perfection Clinic if you have any concerns about your recovery or experience: * Severe or worsening redness lasting longer than 72 hours. * Excessive swelling or increasing pain. * Blistering or burns. * Changes to your vision or persistent eye discomfort. * Any unexpected or concerning reaction following your treatment. **If you think you have developed an infection (such as increasing redness, excessive heat, pus, discharge or fever), or you feel generally unwell, please seek immediate medical advice from your GP, NHS 111 or your nearest emergency department if your symptoms are severe. Your practitioner will be happy to advise you and arrange a review appointment if required.

To ensure your HIFU Eye Lift treatment is as safe and effective as possible, please follow the advice below before your appointment. * Avoid direct sun exposure, sunbeds and self-tanning products for at least 2 weeks before your treatment.

A consultation is an essential part of your HIFU Eye Lift treatment and is required before your first appointment. During your consultation, your practitioner will assess the delicate skin around your eyes, discuss your concerns and determine whether a HIFU Eye Lift is the most suitable treatment for you. We will review your: Skin type and condition. Medical history and current medications. Previous aesthetic or eye-area treatments. Current skincare routine and products. Treatment goals and expectations. Your practitioner will explain how HIFU Eye Lift works, discuss the expected results, outline any potential risks and answer any questions you may have.

Soft, breathable fabrics are recommended, and avoiding high collars or scarves will help prevent irritation around the treated area afterwards. Most clients are able to return to normal activities immediately following treatment, although the skin around the eyes may feel slightly warm, tight or sensitive for a short period after the procedure.
