Hey everyone! Just had my first-ever aesthetic treatment and couldn't wait to share — especially since I'm always snapping photos and noticing things like my not-so-sharp jawline.

But with my fear of needles and surgery, I needed a non-invasive option. Enter: HIFU.

What's HIFU?

HIFU (High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound) is a non-surgical lifting treatment from Korea that uses ultrasound to tighten skin and reduce fatty — great for things like double chins. It stimulates collagen deep in the skin, giving a natural lift without downtime or needles.

Why I Chose HIFU

- No injections or surgery

- Helps define V-shaped jawline

- No recovery time

- Clinically safe and effective

- Targets loose, sagging skin (like my uneven jaw)

My Appointment Recap

4:00 PM: Registered and got my makeup removed

4:30 PM: Photos taken, numbing cream applied

5:20 PM: Met Dr. Neil — super professional and friendly. He noted my right side was a bit more saggy, so he adjusted the focus accordingly.

5:30 PM: Procedure began. Around 700 shots total, and pain level? Around 5/10. Totally bearable even for someone with low pain tolerance.

6:00 PM: All done! Got an aftercare cream (apply 2x daily for 3–5 days). No redness or swelling. You can literally go out right after!

Day 2 Update:

Just a bit of swelling, but no pain! Even managed a 2.4km run today — Dr. Neil said exercise the next day is totally fine.

If you're considering something subtle and non-invasive, HIFU is definitely worth checking out!
