Legacy SMAS Lifting: The First InMode-led SMAS Lifting Treatment in Ireland
A non-surgical way to work at the level of the SMAS — the deep support layer surgeons target in a facelift — without the downtime, the incisions, or the recovery. Using InMode’s Mini FX Pro technology, this treatment delivers controlled radiofrequency energy through vacuum-assisted tissue coupling, heating the deep dermal and sub-dermal layers where structural support and fat positioning actually live. The result is a firmer, more lifted appearance that starts at the layer beneath the skin, not just on top of it.
The Phoenix Sculpt & Glow is an ideal treatment for:
- Skin laxity and early sagging - particularly along the jawline, jowls and naso-labial folds.
- Excess facial fat
- Lack of facial definition and contour
- Duble chin
What Is the Inmode SMAS Lifting
Why is it different?
Structural Skin Tightening
Skin tightening treatments are everywhere. Most heat the surface layers of the skin and call it a lift. Phoenix SMAS Lift is built around a different idea: go deeper.
The SMAS layer
Superficial musculoaponeurotic system (SMAS) is the fibrous layer beneath the skin that surgeons manipulate directly in a facelift. Non-surgical treatments have historically not been able to influence it in any meaningful way — most radiofrequency devices are designed to stop well above it.
Non-Invasive Technology
Mini FX Pro's vacuum-coupled radiofrequency technology is different by design: it's built to deliver uniform, controlled heating through the dermis and into the sub-dermal layers, rather than just the skin's surface. That's the layer where fat position and structural laxity actually originate, which is why this approach can achieve visible firming and contouring that surface-only treatments can't reach.

FAQ
SMAS Lifting FAQs
No. The treatment is designed to be comfortable. The MiniFX PRO radiofrequency feels like a a very warm suction.
Most clients notice some initial skin lifting straight after the treatment. Full results of each session are visible 4 weeks after each treatment
No — it's a non-surgical treatment that works at a similar tissue depth to what a surgeon targets in a facelift, using radiofrequency heat rather than incisions. It won't produce the same magnitude of change as surgery, but it doesn't carry the downtime, scarring, or recovery either.
No downtime is needed. You can return to your normal activities immediately after the treatment, making it ideal before events or as part of your regular skin routine.
For the best results, we recommend a course of minimum of 3-6 treatments.

As with any energy-based treatment, this isn't suitable during pregnancy, with active infections, with certain implanted devices (including pacemakers), or for clients with specific skin or health contraindications — these will be reviewed at your consultation.
Because we're the first clinic in Ireland offering it. The technique comes from training directly with Dr Paul Han in Australia, and Phoenix Biomedical is currently the only clinic in the country delivering it this way.
