Harpenden Skin Clinic in Hertfordshire offers non-surgical skin tightening in the form of Ultraformer III.
This device uses High Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) to treat loose and ageing skin, rather than the radio frequency used by many other clinics.
Loose skin often develops when people’s bodies go through extreme changes. This could be dramatic weight loss, pregnancy, or aging.
Loose skin tissue, such as jowls on the neck or ‘bingo wings’ on the arms, can make people self-conscious about their appearance.
Loose folds of skin are traditionally treated through surgery, but advancements in medical aesthetics technology have led to non-invasive skin tightening treatments.
Non-surgical skin tightening can achieve the same results as surgery, but is much more affordable, requires no downtime and carries a fraction of the risks.

Skin tightening at Harpenden in Hertfordshire is a non-invasive treatment that uses HIFU to contour the body; reduce lines and wrinkles; and tighten sagging skin.
In addition to skin tightening, HIFU can be used similarly to anti-wrinkle treatments and as an alternative to anti-wrinkle injections.
Our clinic uses revolutionary Ultraformer III technology, which has the capacity to achieve targeted results in various layers of the skin.
The intense energy of the HIFU waves creates thermal coagulation zones at different depths:
Ultraformer III has a selection of cartridges, meaning that the treatment can be tailored to your individual requirements.
Depending on your skin condition, you can choose the treated area and which outcomes you’d like to focus on. Book a consultation to discuss a treatment plan and address any concerns.
The natural healing response that triggers collagen production also means that results will be long-lasting. The tissues are not harmed and no recovery period is required.
At our Hertfordshire clinic, we use non-surgical skin tightening to treat:
Facial skin tightening is one of the most popular treatments, though Ultraformer III is suitable for body contouring as well.
The Ultraformer III HIFU device is suitable for all skin types. Anybody who wants to reduce the appearance of wrinkles or tighten loose skin on their face and body could benefit from this great service.
Pregnancy is the only reason why you might not qualify for treatment.
The skin tightening procedure is tailored to the individual patient’s needs, though most people only require a 45 minute appointment for a face and neck treatment.
Lines and wrinkles are visibly reduced straight away and results will improve in the course of time.
We recommend two to three treatments in order to achieve the best results. The more severe the skin condition, the more treatments are generally needed.
You will be able to see visible improvement after one treatment, but secondary procedures will strengthen the success of the treatment.
The skin tightening process should be painless. You may experience minimal discomfort or a mild tingling sensation, but no pain during the treatment, and certainly not enough to need an anaesthetic.
Afterwards, some patients report temporary redness, bruising, or swelling of the target areas. This should disappear after around 48 hours.
