HIFU MELBOURNE - Commonly Asked Questions!

What is the best age to get HIFU?


The best age to get HIFU for the face and neck would be in your late thirties! Unless you have a double chin or undefined jawline you want to correct. HIFU can be used to dissolve fat in an area. And with a skilled eye and experienced HIFU operator we can sculpt the face or body and prevent Jowl formation and reduce double chins. 

Is HIFU Better than Botox?


They are two completely different things! Botox relaxes muscles and can soften static wrinkles, HIFU can smooth wrinkles and plump them by building collagen but its not going to soften them as much as Botox. But be aware, over use of Botox can cause muscles to sag, exactly what we treat with HIFU. So don't over do Botox or muscle relaxant injections. Especially on the masseter area.


Can HIFU make your skin saggy?


HIFU lifts skin and muscle. I guess if you see an untrained person on a poor quality machine there is a chance that they dissolve fat with improper settings , this could lead to being worse off. But the pain would be high on the face, so I would hope an operator would not make that mistake.


How long do results last from HIFU?


Results from HIFU take around 3-6 months to develop. Like most advanced beauty treatments. Most patients will see a 10% plus improvement on the day but this is a long term treatment. The results you get will last around another 6-12 months.


Is one session of HIFU enough?


This totally depends on the case and what other treatments the client is having. Most clients 50 plus have 2-3 treatments spaced over 4 months initially. Then maintenance treatments every 6-12 months.


Is HIFU worth the money?



HIFU is one of the only treatments able to tighten the muscles and reach that layer in the skin. It gives outstanding results in 90% of patients.


You will fine prices ranging from $99- $2500 for a full face on the internet. Do your research, read reviews and speak to the clinic before committing. You will see a lot of HIFU deals in Melbourne! Our prices are very reasonable for the quality, machine, and experience of Jess the clinic owner who does all our HIFU treatments,

Why I Only Use Human Umbilical Cord Exosomes – The Truth About Skin Regeneration** At HUSH Clinical, I’m committed to delivering real results — not just trends. That’s why when it comes to skin regeneration and post-treatment healing, I exclusively use **Dermapen-certified human exosomes**, derived from ethically sourced **umbilical cords**, screened under the **highest American medical standards**. With exosomes becoming one of the most talked-about tools in skin rejuvenation, there’s a growing list of products on the market — from salmon DNA serums to stem cell extracts. But not all exosomes are created equal, and choosing the wrong source can mean reduced results or even skin irritation. Let me explain why I’ve chosen the best — and what to avoid. What Are Exosomes and Why Are They Used in Skin Treatments? Exosomes are microscopic messengers released by cells. They carry proteins, lipids, and RNA that help repair damaged tissue, reduce inflammation, and trigger collagen and elastin production — all essential for healthy, youthful skin. When used correctly, exosomes: Accelerate healing** after treatments like skin needling Improve skin texture and tone** Reduce redness, downtime, and inflammation** Promote collagen remodeling** for firmer, thicker skin They’re most powerful when used during and immediately after procedures like **Dermapen4 microneedling**, helping your skin regenerate faster and better. --- The Problem With Salmon-Based Products Like Rejuran One of the most hyped exosome-like products in recent years is **Rejuran**, a treatment based on **polynucleotides from salmon DNA**. While it may have a place in some clinics, here’s the issue: > 🧬 ** Salmon DNA is foreign to the human body .** Your skin cells can’t fully recognize or respond to fish-derived exosomes or polynucleotides. There’s potential for immune rejection, reduced effectiveness, or unpredictable results — especially for sensitive or reactive skin types. Salmon-based or animal-derived exosomes are **not bio-identical** to human ones, and that matters when you’re trying to heal, renew, and stimulate *your own* skin cells. --- Why I Use Only Dermapen-Screened Human Exosomes At HUSH Clinical, I’ve researched this extensively — and I’ve chosen the **Dermapen Exosome System**, made from **human umbilical cord stem cells**. These exosomes are: ✅ **Sourced ethically** from regulated American tissue banks ✅ **Certified for safety and sterility** under FDA and TGA-aligned standards ✅ **Clinically approved** for use with Dermapen4 microneedling ✅ **Bio-compatible**, meaning your skin instantly recognizes and responds to them These exosomes enhance every needling treatment by boosting collagen and dramatically improving post-procedure recovery — with minimal redness, less inflammation, and visible glow within days. --- What About Other Exosome Products in Australia? There are many exosome options now on the market. Here's a quick overview: | **Product** | **Source** | **Use** | **Concerns** | |-------------|------------|---------|--------------| | **Rejuran** | Salmon DNA | Injectable | Not bio-compatible with human skin | | **Vitaran** | Salmon + PDRN | Serum | Animal-derived, less effective | | **Exomide** | Human stem cells | Microneedling support | More compatible but varies by supplier | | **ASCE+** | Human exosomes | Skin & scalp | Used in Korean clinics | | **Snow Fox Orbs** | Plant + peptide | Topical | No stem cell benefit | | **Plated Serum** | Blood bank platelets | Topical anti-aging | New to market, limited access in AU | | **Medicube Ampoule** | Korean human exosomes | Sensitive skin serum | Gentle but not TGA-reviewed | | **Contour Clinics & Youth Lab** | Mesenchymal stem cell exosomes | Advanced facials | May vary in concentration and purity | At HUSH Clinical, I choose only what’s backed by science, ethics, and proven results.  That’s why Dermapen-certified exosomes are the only kind I use. --- Results You Can See — And Trust Using Dermapen human exosomes with our skin needling treatments means: ✨ Faster healing ✨ Plumper, firmer skin ✨ Reduced redness and sensitivity ✨ Fewer fine lines and better texture ✨ Enhanced collagen regeneration long term With 30 years of industry experience, I don’t follow trends — I follow outcomes. And my clients deserve nothing less than gold-standard skin science. Book Your Free Consultation If you’re considering microneedling or curious about exosome therapy, come and talk to me.
