ULTRAFORMER MPT HIFU Treatment Singapore
High Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) is a safe, non-invasive facelifting technique that not only addresses skin sagging but also removes unwanted facial fats including double chin. It penetrates the deepest layers of the skin and induces collagen production for a natural face lift effect, while ensuring minimal discomfort.
Om Aesthetics Clinic performs HIFU treatments using the ULTRAFORMER MPT, which helps deliver results based on your skin needs with minimal downtime.
Key Benefits of HIFU Face Treatment
HIFU is commonly used in aesthetic medicine to address skin ageing concerns through focused ultrasound energy delivery.
Lifts and Tightens Sagging Skin
Focused ultrasound energy targets specific areas to tighten sagging skin and support overall facial contour.
Enhancing Jawline Definition
The treatment can reduce fat under the chin and improve the shape of the lower face.
Minimal Downtime
As a non-invasive procedure with no incisions, HIFU allows a return to daily activities after treatment.
Reduces Fine Lines and Wrinkles
Targets fine lines and wrinkles to help improve skin texture and smoothness.
Long-Lasting Results
Results develop gradually over several months and can be maintained for an extended period.
Addresses Age-Related Concerns in the Eye Area
The procedure helps lift the eyebrow and upper eye area, supporting a defined and refreshed appearance.
Ultraformer MPT uses focused ultrasound technology that delivers precise energy pulses into the skin to reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, sagging, and all signs of aging.
What is ULTRAFORMER MPT HIFU Treatment?
The ULTRAFORMER MPT HIFU uses micro-pulsed delivery (MPT) to transmit ultrasound energy to the skin, stimulating natural collagen production that supports gradual skin tightening and firming.
Advantages of Ultraformer MPT over Ultraformer 3?
- Less painful
- Faster treatment
- More functions
- Overall comfortable treatment
How is ULTRAFORMER MPT HIFU Technology Different from Other Non-Surgical Treatments?
Micro Pulse Technology
With Micro Pulse Technology, the ULTRAFORMER MPT delivers ultrasound energy on the skin using both Micro and Macro Focused Ultrasound (MMFU) for wider coverage of treatment zones while mitigating the risk of affecting unintended areas.
Ultra Booster Handpiece
The ULTRAFORMER MPT features an additional Ultra Booster handpiece designed to target delicate and hard-to-reach areas, such as the double chin. This handpiece can be paired with skinboosters or serums to enhance the delivery of active ingredients into the targeted skin depths for added skin rejuvenation benefits.
Fine Thermal Coagulation Points (TCP)
The ULTRAFORMER MPT produces fine thermal coagulation points (TCP) that enhance the efficiency of energy, minimising discomfort during the procedure and optimising outcomes.
How Does HIFU Work?
The ULTRAFORMER MPT HIFU system uses focused and heated ultrasound energy to stimulate existing collagen fibres, causing them to contract, thicken, and shorten for gradual, long-lasting skin tightening and lifting. It delivers energy at varying depths of 1.5 mm, 2.0 mm, 3.0 mm, and 4.5 mm, allowing for targeted skin lifting and firming at multiple structural levels.
It is designed to target both superficial and deeper layers of the skin, including the Superficial Muscular Aponeurotic System (SMAS), to create a triple-layer lifting effect.
Skin Layers HIFU Treatment Targets
The ULTRAFORMER MPT features multiple depth cartridges, which allow practitioners to target specific areas for reducing fine lines and wrinkles or for contouring targeted regions of the body.
1.5mm Depth – Pigmentation and Brightening
At this superficial depth, HIFU helps reduce melanin in targeted areas, lightening pigmentation and enhancing overall skin radiance.
2mm Depth – Eye Area Delicate Skin
The 2mm handpiece is ideal for thin and sensitive areas, such as around the eyes. It tightens the undereye skin without affecting surrounding tissues, providing gentle lifting.
3mm Depth – Skin Tightening
At 3mm, the treatment focuses on tightening the skin by heating the tissue where structural collagen is located. This stimulates collagen production, improving skin elasticity and firmness over time.
4.5mm Depth – SMAS Lifting
The 4.5mm depth targets the Superficial Muscular Aponeurotic System (SMAS), the same layer addressed during surgical facelifts. By contracting and stimulating this layer, the ULTRAFORMER MPT HIFU delivers a noticeable lifting effect, creating a natural, long-lasting facelift without invasive surgery.
Our Ultherapy PRIME Treatment Process at Our Clinic
A HIFU procedure using our ULTRAFORMER MPT will involve:
Step 1: Preparation
HIFU treatment is generally well-tolerated, but for added comfort, a topical numbing cream can be applied upon request. A treatment gel is then spread over the skin to ensure smooth transmission of ultrasound energy during the session.
Step 2: Treatment
During the procedure, you will be positioned comfortably while the aesthetic doctor uses a handheld device to deliver focused ultrasound energy to the targeted areas. This energy penetrates specific skin depths to stimulate collagen production, promoting lifting and tightening effects.
Step 3: Aftercare & Recovery
After your HIFU session, you can immediately resume normal daily activities. Mild, temporary effects such as slight redness, swelling, or tenderness may appear in the treated areas, but these typically subside within a few hours.
Target Areas for HIFU Face Treatment
The primary target areas of our ULTRAFORMER MPT HIFU treatment include:
Face
- Facial Hyperpigmentation: Reduces melanin in areas of hyperpigmentation, helping to lighten dark spots and even out skin tone.
- Cheeks and Nasolabial Folds: Firms and lifts the mid-face, smoothing laugh lines and restoring natural cheek definition.
- Forehead and Brow Area: Elevates the brow and smooths fine lines and wrinkles on the forehead.
- Under-Eyes and Eyelids: Tightens the delicate eye area, softening fine lines and reducing puffiness.
- Jawline and Jowls: Enhances collagen density on the jawline and jowls for a more sculpted look
Neck and Upper Body
- Neck folds: Tightens loose skin and reduces horizontal lines.
- Axilla folds: Improves skin firmness under the arms.
Body Contouring
- Abdomen, flanks, and thighs: Targets localised fat deposits and tightens skin for smooth, contoured body areas.
Ultraformer MPT also has 3 additional body cartridges which can help to burn excess body fats and tighten loose skin.

What are the benefits of the Ultraformer MPT?
- Almost zero pain
- Faster treatment time
- More precise targets, including smaller, hard to reach areas
- Comfortable, non-invasive procedure
The Ultraformer MPT is masterfully designed to deliver pulses in 2 modes: a normal mode, which delivers pulses in dots, and the micro-pulse mode, which delivers pulses in a linear fashion. Through its Ultra Booster handpieces and focused depth cartridges, the Ultraformer MPT can target even the narrowest and most sensitive regions of the face.
Compared with the previous versions of the Ultraformer, the Ultraformer MPT delivers 25 times finer thermal coagulation points (TCP). This technology effectively reduces the treatment time, increases patient comfort, and minimizes pain. Overall, the non-invasive Ultraformer MPT treatment directly induces skin tightening and facial lifting.
Frequently Asked Questions About ULTRAFORMER MPT

The ideal number of shots that you may need depends on your specific skin concern, the area that requires treatment, and the size of your face/body. For reference, a typical Ultraformer MPT treatment for the entire face, including a double chin and upper neck, would require 700-1000 HIFU shots.
The ULTRAFORMER MPT treatment requires no downtime. You can resume your regular activities after your treatment session. Rarely, patients may experience very mild redness, tenderness, or swelling around the treated areas. These will eventually clear after a few days.
