This is a question I hear frequently during consultations. After all, when investing in a technological and non-surgical procedure like microfocused ultrasound (Liftera 2), it's natural to want to enjoy the benefits for longer — both in terms of skin firmness and improved facial contour.
In this post, I've compiled the 7 guidelines I share here at the clinic for those who want to... to prolong and enhance the resultsIf you've already had the procedure or are preparing for it, it's worth saving this content.
Schedule your personalized evaluation with Dr. Renata!
1. Do not use anti-inflammatory drugs after the session.
Because it is a treatment that acts stimulating collagen through a controlled inflammatory processThe use of common anti-inflammatory drugs (such as ibuprofen and ketoprofen) can interfere with the body's response. Ideally, these medications should be avoided for at least 7 to 10 days after the sessionunless specifically directed by a doctor.
2. Take care of your sleep routine.
During deep sleep, the body releases hormones essential for regeneration and collagen production. Sleeping well naturally stimulates the effects of microfocused ultrasound. and helps your skin respond better to treatment. An average of 7 to 9 hours of sleep per night is ideal.
3. Maintain a diet rich in nutrients.
Collagen is not produced on its own: it depends on vitamins, minerals and proteinsAfter the procedure, prioritize foods such as:
-
Citrus fruits (vitamin C)
-
Eggs, fish and lean meats (proteins)
-
Oilseeds and dark green vegetables (zinc and magnesium)
Avoid ultra-processed foods, which increase oxidative stress and damage the skin.
4. Hydrate Yourself Well Inside and Out
A Hydration is essential for skin quality.Drink at least 2 liters of water a day and follow the guidelines for hydrating your face with products suitable for your skin type. This contributes to more efficient cell regeneration and enhances the response to the thermal stimulation of ultrasound.

5. Use sunscreen every day.
Even without causing skin lesions, microfocused ultrasound is a procedure that stimulates the deeper layers of the dermis. Daily use of sunscreen with SPF 50 or higher It protects against free radicals and prevents the degradation of newly produced collagen. This is one of the most important tips!
6. Schedule Annual Maintenance Sessions
The results of microfocused ultrasound are not permanent — after all, the aging process continues. Therefore, here at the clinic we generally recommend... 1 to 2 sessions per yeardepending on your biological age, degree of sagging skin, and individual response.
Following the protocol prevents sagging from recurring and keeps the skin firm over the years.
7. Consider Combining Technologies to Enhance the Effects
Combining microfocused ultrasound with other technologies is an effective strategy for more comprehensive results. Here at the clinic, many patients combine it with:
-
CoolPhase: Improved skin quality, texture, and surface firmness.
-
Collagen biostimulators (Sculptra or Radiesse): skin structure reinforcement and support
-
Pulsed Light or Laser: Improves blemishes, pores, and evens skin tone.
We combine these technologies strategically, according to the individualized plan for each patient.
