High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) Treatment
- Introduction
A Non-Invasive Solution for Fibroids and Adenomyosis
High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) is an advanced, non-invasive medical technology used to treat uterine fibroids and adenomyosis without the need for conventional surgery. This innovative treatment allows patients to receive effective care with minimal disruption to their daily lives.
- Mechanism
How HIFU Works
HIFU uses highly focused ultrasound energy to precisely target abnormal tissue deep within the body. The energy generates controlled thermal heat that destroys the targeted fibroid or adenomyosis tissue while preserving the surrounding healthy uterus.
The procedure is performed without any surgical incision, making it a safe and effective alternative for suitable patients.
- Why HIFU
Advantages of HIFU Treatment
HIFU offers several benefits compared to traditional surgery:
Completely non-invasive (no cuts or scars)
Minimal discomfort during and after treatment
Reduced risk of surgical complications
Faster recovery time
Shorter hospital stay
Preservation of the uterus
Earlier return to normal activities

Who is Suitable for HIFU?
HIFU may be considered for women who:
- Have symptomatic uterine fibroids
- Are diagnosed with adenomyosis
- Prefer non-surgical treatment options
- Wish to preserve their uterus
- Are suitable candidates based on clinical and imaging assessment
A detailed consultation including ultrasound or MRI evaluation is necessary to determine eligibility.
- Recovery
Recovery and Aftercare
Most patients recover quickly after HIFU treatment and can usually resume normal activities within a few days. Some patients may experience mild discomfort, which typically resolves within a short period.
Our team will provide personalised post-treatment care instructions to ensure optimal recovery.
