HIFU at a clinical standard

HIFU stands for High Intensity Focused Ultrasound. It delivers precise beams of ultrasound energy to a targeted depth within the skin and underlying tissue, triggering a controlled thermal response that stimulates collagen production and, at deeper levels, targets the SMAS layer. The SMAS is the muscular and fascial layer that surgical facelifts address through incision. HIFU reaches it without breaking the skin.

At Changes Clinic, your HIFU treatment is planned and delivered by our qualified, experienced & insured practitioners. The planning step matters. The depth and energy settings your clinician uses depend on your skin thickness, tissue quality and the areas you want to treat. A standardised HIFU session applied without this assessment delivers a predictable, generic result. A clinically planned treatment targets the right tissue depth for your anatomy.

We use HIFU for facial and neck lifting and tightening. The treatment stimulates your body's natural collagen production, so results develop over the weeks and months following treatment as new collagen forms in the treated area. This is a gradual improvement, not an instant one.

What we treat

HIFU treats facial and neck laxity, jowling, loss of skin firmness on the brow, cheeks and jawline, and loose skin on the neck and decolletage. It is most effective for clients who have mild to moderate skin laxity and are looking to lift and tighten without surgery.

HIFU is not appropriate for clients with very advanced laxity, as the degree of correction achievable without surgery has limits. Your qualified, experienced & insured practitioners will advise at the consultation whether HIFU is the right treatment for your concern or whether a combination approach would deliver a better result.

Very happy with my consultation. I got the answers I was hoping for and I will soon be booking myself in for a quick and easy mole/sun spot removal. I now have a new understanding of what the problem is and what has caused it. Thank you.

I went for an ultrasound scan due the NHS appointment waiting time was a longtime away, the service I recieved from Andrea was excellent, second to none, Andrea explained everything including the results of the scan straight afterwards.

I’ve suffered with rosacea for several years and have tried all sorts of creams, skincare routines and products, but nothing really made a lasting difference. Looking after my skin and being mindful of my diet definitely helps to keep it under control, but IPL at Changes Clinic has made the biggest difference by far. The redness in my face has reduced so much, and even when I do get a flare up, it’s nowhere near as bad as it used to be because the underlying redness has improved so much. Everyone at Changes Clinic has been friendly, professional and really knowledgeable. They’ve always taken the time to answer any questions and made me feel comfortable throughout the whole process. I’d happily recommend Changes Clinic to anyone who suffers from rosacea and is thinking about IPL. It’s made a huge difference to my skin and has given me so much more confidence.

It’s the first time I’ve done something like this. What a lovely place & people. Very kind, polite & efficient. Very impressed with my procedure, obviously, it hasn’t healed yet, but will definitely be back for more treatment & also considering other treatments too. Well impressed and everything was explained as the treatment was carried out, pleasantly surprised, thank you so much for taking such good care of my skin. Lee B

I had PRP Hair Treatment, with Sumayiah, she is very friendly, she takes the time to explain the procedure and really makes sure to focus on target areas. I have had 2 treatments so far and I already see a difference in my hair density and texture. She can use a gun or syringe, the syringe goes deeper and achieves better results, so its worth asking for the syringe method. I combined my PRP with Calecim serum and that gives an even greater boost. So I recomend you sign up and ask for a booking with Sumaiyah, you'll be very happy that you did..

One of the best decisions I’ve made for my skin! The treatments are effective, safe, and handled by experienced professionals. I struggled with acne for years, and after visiting this clinic, I finally see clear and healthy skin. The staff always follows up after treatments, which shows how much they care about their clients’ progress. Their attention to detail and dedication to customer satisfaction is truly impressive. I would highly recommend this clinic to anyone who wants real results and excellent service.

Lovely relaxed atmosphere with great staff. My lazer hair removal was undertaken by two very capable proffessional young women Kelly and Surmaiyah. Both demonstrate constant care and ensure this not always comfortable experience is as pleasant as possible. The facility is immaculately clean and there is excellent visitor free parking available. I have no hesitation in recommending the clinic to others and whilst I can only comment on the treatments I have received to date I will be availing myself of some of the others services offered.

I am so glad I visited the Changes Clinic today for an upper abdominal ultrasound. I was a nervous wreck as I have a bit of a phobia of scans & Andrea was just brilliant with me. So reassuring, she went above & beyond with careful detailed descriptions, even went over some areas twice just for extra reassurance. I left smiling with a huge weight lifted off my shoulders. I have already recommended to a friend & highly recommend to anyone experiencing symptoms they’d like some extra peace of mind for. Was also really easy to book & communication excellent throughout. Thank you so much!!

I’ve been attending changes for facial hair removal for about 6 months now and I can honestly say it’s been one of the best and easiest experiences for me. Sumaiyah has been amazing through every step. From consultation to our current progress. She shows great professionalism, compassion, consideration -especially when I’m having a bad pain tolerance day- and is very meticulous in which the results are to show for it. Every appointment I get a little nervous and Sumaiyah has always put my nerves at ease and worked at a pace that suits me and my needs. I’m very thankful to work with her and be attending changes clinic. I would recommend their treatment. The staff are very welcoming. Adriana Verrier :) .

She made me feel completely at ease. Such a down-to-earth lady that you can feel genuinely comfortable with. Her prices are so reasonable and very affordable too. I highly recommend Andrea

Chloe was very well informed and helpful. There was probably too much information to absorb in the time span, and more published literature would be helpful (FAQs, prices, offers, medical considerations etc)

Common questions

How far is Changes Clinic from Chichester?

Changes Clinic is at 1000 Lakeside, Cosham, Portsmouth. The drive from central Chichester takes approximately 20 to 25 minutes via the A27 heading east. There is free parking on site at the clinic.

Is a consultation required before HIFU treatment?

Yes. Your qualified, experienced & insured practitioners needs to assess your skin laxity, tissue quality and treatment goals before determining the appropriate HIFU parameters for your face. The assessment also covers your medical history and any contraindications to HIFU treatment. This is a free appointment and carries no obligation to book treatment.

How long do HIFU results last?

Results from HIFU typically last up to 18 months. The treatment stimulates your own collagen production, and results continue to develop for several months after the session as new collagen forms. Annual maintenance sessions extend the effect. Clients who treat consistently over time tend to see cumulative improvement.

What makes Changes Clinic different from a beauty salon offering HIFU?

HIFU is a medical-grade technology that delivers ultrasound energy into the skin and underlying tissue. Incorrect settings can cause burns or nerve discomfort. At Changes Clinic, your treatment is planned by a qualified, experienced & insured practitioner with a clinical understanding of tissue anatomy and safe energy parameters. We operate under CQC registration. Many beauty salons offer HIFU using lower-specification devices operated by staff without the clinical background to adapt the protocol to different skin types and depths.
