HIFU & Skin Tightening (Ultraformer III, EmFace, Thread Lifts)

ENRICH Clinic offers a full non-surgical skin tightening menu including HIFU via Ultraformer III, EmFace facial muscle toning, thread lifts and suture lifts, Tixel, and Portrait CO2 laser resurfacing. These treatments address facial laxity, jowls, neck, brow drooping, and body areas. Options range from no-downtime energy treatments to more intensive resurfacing.

Skin tightening at ENRICH Dermatology & Cosmetic Clinic in South Yarra, Melbourne, is addressed through a broad spectrum of non-surgical and minimally invasive technologies, enabling treatment to be matched precisely to each patient's degree of laxity, target area, and downtime tolerance. HIFU via the Ultraformer III device delivers focused ultrasound energy to the deep SMAS layer of the face and neck — the same structural layer targeted in a surgical facelift — without incisions. This stimulates sustained collagen synthesis over three to six months, lifting and tightening jowls, brow drooping, neck laxity, the under-chin area, and upper arms. Treatment typically involves one to four sessions depending on patient goals and response. EmFace combines radiofrequency with high-intensity facial electrical muscle stimulation to simultaneously tighten skin and tone facial muscles, producing a lifted, contoured appearance without needles or anaesthesia. Thread lifts and suture lifts provide a more immediate mechanical lifting effect by inserting dissolvable threads under the skin to reposition sagging tissue. Sessions take approximately 30 to 45 minutes with minimal recovery. Tixel uses thermomechanical ablation to resurface skin and stimulate collagen with a controlled contact tip, offering a middle ground between non-ablative energy devices and ablative laser resurfacing. Portrait CO2 laser (the ablative resurfacing option) delivers more intensive results for patients who accept greater downtime in exchange for more dramatic textural improvement. Venus Legacy is also available for combined radiofrequency and cellulite treatments on the body. ENRICH Clinic's physicians guide each patient through a personalised consultation to identify the optimal treatment pathway based on their anatomy and goals. The clinic is located in South Yarra, Melbourne, easily accessible via Hawksburn Station and tram line 72.
