AVIQUE SIGNATURE / CUSTOM LIFTING
LAYERED LIFTING
Skin elasticity, fat distribution and the tissues that support the face.
AVIQUE Signature Custom Lifting considers these structures together.
01 / UNDERSTANDING THE LAYERS
Similar-looking sagging can have different causes: skin laxity, the weight and distribution of fat, or changes in supporting tissue. We assess structure and expression before selecting treatment.
The foundation of texture, fine lines and elasticity. Surface condition and skin thickness help guide energy settings and care.
Contributes to soft facial volume. We assess its amount and position, distinguishing areas to reduce from areas to preserve.
Involved in expression and movement between the skin and deeper tissue. We consider the anatomical differences between areas.
Contains deep fat and retaining ligaments. Understanding these relationships helps us assess facial contours and support.
The foundation surrounding deeper structures. This explains facial anatomy; it does not mean every layer is treated with a device.
A simplified five-layer model of facial soft tissue. Actual structures and thickness vary by area and individual. Diagram spacing does not represent treatment depths or anatomical proportions. The skin itself comprises the epidermis and dermis.
Every face calls for its own plan.
A considered approach to each layer.
02 / OUR LIFTING TECHNOLOGIES
Ultherapy PRIME · Coolsoniq · XERF · ONDA.
Device characteristics and facial condition guide whether a single treatment or combination is appropriate.
MICROFOCUSED ULTRASOUND
Image-guided planning.
Focused ultrasound lifting.
Real-time ultrasound imaging helps us assess tissue and select treatment depth and energy for the thickness and structure of each area.
Ultrasound visualization · Depth-based planning
COOLING + HIFU
Focused ultrasound
with contact cooling.
Focused ultrasound is delivered with cooling at the skin-contact surface. Applicators are selected for the area and skin condition.
Contact cooling · Focused ultrasound
DUAL-FREQUENCY RF
Dual-frequency RF
for skin firmness.
Uses 6.78 MHz and 2 MHz radiofrequency. Depth settings and energy levels are adjusted to skin condition when planning tightening treatment.
Dual frequency · Adjustable energy settings
MICROWAVE TECHNOLOGY
Considering volume
and firmness together.
Microwave energy targets subcutaneous fat and surrounding connective tissue. We consider fat distribution alongside the volume that should be preserved.
Microwave energy · Area-specific contouring
Device energies do not correspond one-to-one with anatomical layers. The tissue reached at a given depth can vary by area and individual. Product images illustrate the equipment; some backgrounds and compositions have been edited.
EVE MUSE / 3D SKIN & FACE ANALYSIS
A CLOSER LOOK AT YOUR SKIN
EVE MUSEEVE MUSE high-resolution imaging and 3D analysis help us review texture, pores, pigmentation, redness and facial contours from multiple perspectives.
We combine visual analysis with a medical examination to discuss treatment direction and compare progress.
Skin and facial image analysis supports consultation. It does not replace examination or directly diagnose deep fat layers or fascia.
03 / YOUR PERSONAL PLAN
We review skin, facial volume, sagging and previous procedures, alongside your goals and available recovery time.
We select devices, areas, settings and treatment order. The plan uses what suits your current condition rather than automatically combining every device.
We assess recovery and skin response. Further care or treatment is adjusted to your progress and goals.
BEFORE YOUR TREATMENT
No. We select devices according to facial volume, skin thickness, laxity and treatment history. One device may be appropriate, or different concerns may be addressed separately.
With thin skin or low volume, we first identify tissue that should be preserved. Fat-reduction approaches do not suit everyone. Suitability and treatment scope are decided after examination.
EVE MUSE photographs and analyses the skin surface and facial shape. It does not directly image fat layers or the SMAS. Planning also relies on examination; during Ultherapy PRIME treatment, real-time ultrasound imaging allows internal tissue to be viewed.
These vary with the device, settings, area and individual. We explain expected responses and comfort options beforehand. The duration of swelling or redness also varies.
Pain, redness, swelling, bruising, burns or temporary sensory changes can occur. Results and recovery vary. Please tell us about pregnancy, implanted medical devices, infection in the treatment area and previous procedures.
