Can HIFU help eliminate fibrosis/scar tissue?

Asked By:ballerina8421 in Brisbane City, Queensland, Australia

I have had vaser liposuction on my stomach, and am wanting to get HIFU done to help tighten the skin. At my consultation, the nurse told me that HIFU (the particular technology her clinic uses is ULTRAcel Q+, which is produced by Cynosure) will also eliminate the small bits of fibrosis/scar tissue that formed under my skin after liposuction. However, I cannot find any information that supports this claim. Does HIFU affect fibrosis/scar tissue?
