How it works

How Coolsoniq works, in plain language

Coolsoniq uses focused ultrasound (sound waves concentrated at one depth) while the skin's surface is kept cool. The energy reaches the deeper layers, and your skin then builds new collagen.
  1. 1

    Cooling and ultrasound work together

    The cooling applicator chills the skin contact area while HIFU energy is delivered.

  2. 2

    Energy lands at a chosen depth

    Applicators with 1.5, 3.0, and 4.5 mm depths direct energy to the fascia and dermis. A pen-type cartridge reaches curved areas.

  3. 3

    Skin tightens, then collagen builds

    Skin can feel tighter right after treatment, and collagen rebuilds over 4 to 6 weeks.

How your skin responds

  1. Cooled HIFU delivery

    A patented cooling applicator keeps the skin surface comfortable while focused ultrasound energy reaches the dermis at a controlled depth.

  2. Dermal stimulation

    The targeted ultrasound energy stimulates the dermis, prompting new collagen and elastin production over the following weeks.

  3. Tightening

    Skin feels tighter right after treatment, and the full collagen-building effect develops over 4 to 6 weeks.

About Coolsoniq

Coolsoniq pairs high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) with a patented cooling applicator that cools the skin's surface as energy is delivered, reaching up to 1.5 joules beneath the skin. Two applicators work at different depths, and a pen-type cartridge reaches curved areas that standard HIFU tips can't. That is why Cellier Clinic uses Coolsoniq to finish most treatments on the Signature menu.

Coolsoniq is part of our Lifting & Tightening treatments.
