In the non-surgical facelift application, the patient's 'aesthetic' expectations are of great importance. Within the aesthetic expectation, the patient may have a certain desire for rejuvenation and a certain shape on his face. Considering these expectations, the aesthetic surgeon creates the scope of the application by presenting the method suggestions to the patient, which will provide the patient's facial structure and the closest result to the natural. With the use of high-intensity focused ultrasound technology (HIFU) in the areas where a positive effect is desired in the non-surgical facelift procedure, controlled heat bruises are created at different depth levels of the skin, on average 1.5 – 13 mm, depending on the scope of the treatment. The regeneration process triggered in the body by means of ultrasound technology activates the person's own natural repair mechanisms in the areas where the patient wants rejuvenation and tension, and triggers healing in the connective tissues by increasing the synthesis of collagen and elastin. If preferred by the patient and the doctor deems it appropriate, the procedure performed with local anesthesia is completed in an average of 30 minutes to 1 hour, depending on the areas where the application will be made.
