HIFU at a medical-device clinical standard

HIFU — High Intensity Focused Ultrasound — uses focused ultrasound energy to heat tissue at precise depths beneath the skin's surface, stimulating the body's own collagen production and producing a gradual lifting and tightening effect. At Changes Clinic, we use medical-grade HIFU equipment and every treatment is preceded by a clinical skin assessment carried out at our CQC-registered clinic in Portsmouth, around 15 minutes from Gosport.

The assessment matters more than many clients expect. HIFU works at different tissue depths, and the settings used depend on your skin thickness, the degree of laxity present, and the specific areas being treated. A clinical assessment gives us the information to configure the device correctly for your skin. Applying HIFU at the wrong depth, or in areas where it is contraindicated — around bony structures, over active skin conditions, or on clients with certain implanted devices — can cause complications. Our clinical practitioners know how to avoid them.

We also discuss realistic outcomes at the consultation. HIFU produces a gradual result as new collagen forms over the weeks following treatment. The outcome is a lift and tightening of the skin, not a surgical-level repositioning of tissue. Most clients see their best results at 3 months. We are clear about this before any commitment is made.

What we treat

We use HIFU to treat skin laxity on the face, jawline, jowls, neck, and brow. Common concerns addressed include a softening jawline, loose skin beneath the chin and along the neck, descent of the midface, and a drooping brow. We also use HIFU on the décolletage for skin tightening in that area.

HIFU is most effective for clients who are beginning to notice laxity but have not yet reached a stage where the degree of tissue descent would require a surgical approach. Your practitioner will advise at the consultation whether HIFU is appropriate for your skin and goals, or whether a different or additional treatment would better serve you.

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’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 :) .

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 Gosport?
Changes Clinic is at 1000 Lakeside, Cosham, Portsmouth. From Gosport, the drive takes approximately 15 to 20 minutes. The most direct route heads north via the A32 through Fareham, then east on the A27 towards Cosham. Free parking is available at the clinic.
Is a consultation required before HIFU treatment?
Yes. HIFU is a medical device treatment and the settings used must be configured for your specific skin. Our practitioner assesses your skin thickness and laxity, identifies the areas most likely to respond well, and checks for contraindications — including metal implants near the treatment area, certain skin conditions, and recent surgical procedures. Without this assessment, we cannot confirm you are a suitable candidate or set the device appropriately.
How long do HIFU results last?
Results typically last 12 to 18 months. HIFU works by stimulating the body to produce new collagen, and this process continues for up to 3 months after treatment — so you will notice gradual improvement rather than an immediate change. We recommend a review appointment at 3 months to assess the outcome, and a maintenance treatment at 12 months to sustain the result.
What makes Changes Clinic different from a beauty salon or non-clinical provider?
The device and the assessment are the two critical differences. Medical-grade HIFU equipment operates at higher intensities and more precise focal depths than consumer or salon-grade devices sold under the same name. Applying high-intensity focused ultrasound without a proper contraindication check and skin assessment carries real risks, including burns, nerve injury, and paradoxical fat atrophy in certain treatment areas. At Changes Clinic, the combination of medical-grade technology, a clinical assessment, and CQC-registered governance gives our HIFU treatments a safety and efficacy profile that salon devices cannot match.
