Awards & Recognition.
MED: HIFU Ultra+ Body.
HIFU Ultra+ Body treatments are the latest in non-invasive technology to target specific focused areas of fat and loose skin in the quickest way possible.
MED: HIFU Body is very effective for tightening the skin and offering a small amount of fat reduction. HIFU Body is the latest technology to target fat and tighten the skin. It works by firing focused ultrasound energy into the skin that destroys fat cells and tightens the skin at the SMAS layer. This is the muscle layer of the skin and the same layer targeted during surgery. The heat caused by the treatment effectively destroys the fat cells and tightens the surface of the skin.

How Does Body HIFU Work?.
HIFU Body is the latest technology to target a fat and tighten the skin. It works by firing focused ultrasound energy into the skin that destroys fat cells and tightens the skin at the SMAS layer. This is the muscle layer of the skin and the same layer targeted during surgery. The heat caused by the treatment effectively destroys the fat cells and tightens the surface of the skin.
By ablating subcutaneous adipose tissue and causing molecular vibrations that increase the temperature of local tissue and induce rapid cell necrosis. Several studies reveal the safety and efficacy of HIFU for fat reduction in the abdomen and the flanks. These studies indicate a consistent reduction in abdominal circumference > 2 cm after a single treatment.
HIFU Body Contouring Treatment.
HIFU Ultra+ Body is recommended for clients who have loose skin and a smaller pocket of fat that cannot be treated with MED: Cryolipolysis. This is because Cryolipolysis is more effective for larger areas of fat as these treatments are clinically proven to work more effectively in these body shapes. The treatment is used more for skin tightening and therefore clients who have loose skin will see better results.
HIFU is ideal for body contouring post-pregnancy tummy, abdomen fat, bingo wings, thighs and under the buttocks; for a non-surgical bum-lifting effect. It can even tighten the skin on the knees and arms, helping to improve the ‘crepey’ look. HIFU is a very effective treatment for both inch loss and fat loss, while at the same time tightening the skin.
What results can be expected from Body HIFU?.
Clients who come to our clinic in Newcastle for Body HIFU have seen fat loss of up to 6cm in just one treatment. Skin tightening treatments are our most common results following on from this treatment and we have loads of before and after photos. You can find these photos on our social media pages and our reviews are online, we have over 500 reviews at 5 stars.

What You Need To Know.
Depending on the amount of areas you’re having treated, it takes around 1 – 2 hours from start to finish. Your aesthetic practitioner will be with you throughout your treatment.
Although risks are rare, some clients report mild redness, bruising and slight swelling after treatment. These are mild and can last up to 48 hours post treatment, however, most clients do not suffer any post-treatment sensitivities.
Long-term results which start to show within 2 – 3 months post-treatment, although some clients report instant noticeable differences on the same day. Results can last between 2 and 5 years.
Most clients will only need this treatment once. For long-term and maintained results, top up treatments can be performed every 12 – 18 months.
Our Care.
Prior to your MED: HIFU Ultra+ Body treatment there are a number of steps you can take to ensure the best possible results following your treatment. This includes the following:
- Increase water intake (aim for 2 – 3 litres per day)
- Avoid botox/filler 4 weeks prior to treatment
- Avoid any peels, exfoliation or microdermabrasion 2 weeks before treatment
- It’s recommended that male clients come to their appointment clean shaven
- We cannot provide the treatment if you have previously had threads within the last year unless it has been discussed with the aesthetic practitioner prior to treatment
- Avoid alcohol consumption for minimal of 48 hours prior to your appointment
- Avoid IPL / laser treatments in the area that you wish to have treated 2 weeks prior to your appointment
- Avoid sun-beds or direct UV exposure for a minimal of 1 week prior to your appointment
- If you have any open sores, infection or skin sensitivity in the area, we cannot treat it unless discussed with the aesthetic practitioner prior to treatment
- Discontinue use of Tretinoin type products (Renova, Tretinoin, Retin A, Retin A Micro, Tri-Luma, Solage, etc.) at least 2 days before treatment
If you have a history of cold sores, consider beginning prophylactic treatment no later than the day of treatment - We would recommend that you take some painkillers before your appointment as this can help reduce any pain from the treatment – we recommend Paracetamol and we would advise you to take this 1 hour before your HIFU appointment
In order to achieve optimum results from your MED: HIFU Ultra+ Body treatment, we strongly recommend the following:
- Avoid alcohol consumption for minimal of 48 hours
- Avoid hot water, heat treatments (saunas, steam rooms, etc) or extreme cold for 24 hours
- Drink 2 – 3 litres of water daily, keep a large bottle with you at all times and infuse with lemons and limes for flavour – this will help hydrate the skin and help to flush out toxins
- Avoid sun-beds or direct UV exposure for a minimum of 1 week and apply SPF daily to protect the skin
- RT Aesthetics has a range of different skincare to help after your treatment, the skincare should be used after your treatment daily and the directions on how to use each product can be found on the bottle/packaging
- Skin may feel dry after treatment, therefore you should apply a replenishing/hydrating mask three times a week or apply hyaluronic acid daily
- Do not take aspirin or other anticoagulant medications as this can hinder the healing process
- Normal cleansing regimes can be resumed after 24 hours, although avoid using scented or fragranced products around the treatment area unless you are using the skincare given to you at the clinic
- Allow 2 weeks before continuing any laser/IPL treatments in the area that you had treated
