What are the operating principles and features of needle-free catgut embedding?
The principle of 無針埋線 is to use hot spot diffusion technology to operate on the skin surface, collagen layer, and fascia layer to achieve the effect of lifting and tightening. It is a non-invasive, no-downtime procedure and can be applied immediately after makeup and normal daily activities.

HIFU principle
The principle of HIFU is to accurately focus highly concentrated ultrasonic waves on the treatment site for segmented fixed-point heating, instantly warm the temperature of the treatment tissue to 60°C to 70°C, and then bring the heat energy to the dermis and aponeurosis. Since the aponeurosis is the central part that supports the face, activating the collagen in the aponeurosis can tighten the skin, tighten the muscles, skin, etc., so as to restructure the supporting force of the underlying tissue, so as to achieve light lines and tightness To enhance the contour effect.
How long does the HIFU effect last?
Under normal circumstances, the effect of one HIFU treatment can last for 1 to 2 years. Still, it will also vary according to personal skin condition, age, work and rest, and maintenance habits.
