The treatment
What is HIFU?
HIFU stands for high-intensity focused ultrasound. It works on the deeper layers beneath the skin, gently heating them so skin can look firmer over the following months.
There are no needles and nothing breaks the skin’s surface, so you can go straight back to your day.

How it works
Your HIFU treatment, step by step
- Your free consultationYou'll start with a friendly, relaxed chat with Hayley about your skin concerns and what you'd like to achieve. She'll assess your skin, explain whether HIFU is suitable for you and discuss the results you can realistically expect.
- Getting you readyHayley will gently cleanse the treatment area and apply a cool ultrasound gel to prepare your skin.
- Your HIFU treatmentHayley will carefully move the HIFU device across the treatment area, delivering targeted ultrasound energy beneath the skin. You may feel some warmth, tingling or prickly sensations, and Hayley will make sure you're comfortable throughout.
- After your treatmentYou can usually return to your normal routine straight away. Your skin may look slightly pink or feel a little tender afterwards, but this typically settles. Over the following 2 to 3 months, you may notice your skin gradually looking firmer and tighter as new collagen develops.

Hi, I’m Hayley, the owner of The Beauty Lab. I’m an advanced aesthetics practitioner with 25 years’ combined experience in beauty and aesthetics.
I’m fully trained and certified in every treatment I offer, with qualifications including a Level 4 Diploma in Aesthetic Procedures, a Level 5 qualification in aesthetics, a Certificate of Higher Education in Health Studies and training as a nurse. I’m now studying for my Level 7, so I’m always learning and keeping up to date.
I’ve had the privilege of treating hundreds of women, and I’ve always believed in one thing: helping women feel cared for, empowered and confident in themselves again.
When it comes to HIFU, I’ll talk you through how it works, which areas suit you and what to expect, so you feel confident and comfortable before we begin.
For me, aesthetic treatments should never be about changing who you are. They’re about enhancing your natural features without losing what makes you you.
