Four treatments, one specialist
Each one works at its own depth.
HIFU sends focused ultrasound to an exact layer of the skin without touching the surface. Massage and drainage work by hand. Márcia decides which one — and where — at the assessment.
Focused ultrasound reaches the dermis and the SMAS — the layer a surgical lift works on — and triggers new collagen. No needles, no cuts, no downtime. The result builds over two to three months and looks like you, rested.

Honest about what it can do
What HIFU does — and what it does not.
The most repeated line in Márcia's reviews is that she does not promise what a treatment cannot deliver. So here it is in writing.
How the result builds
- Day 0Session · light immediate lift
- Day 30New collagen starts to form
- Day 60–90Full result · lasts about a year
Collagen response after one session. There is a light immediate effect; the main result forms over two to three months. Márcia sets the plan at the assessment.
It does
- Firm the jawline, neck and brow without surgery
- Reach the SMAS layer — the one a surgical lift works on
- Improve skin firmness and fine lines over time
- Treat body zones — abdomen, arms, thighs, knees
- Let you go back to your day the same afternoon
It does not
- Replace a surgical lift when there is a lot of excess skin
- Give the final result on day one — it builds over 2–3 months
- Work the same way on everyone — the assessment decides
- Come with a hidden package or a price you did not hear first
How much does it cost?
It depends on the zone and the plan. Márcia gives the quote at the assessment, in person, with no obligation.
One person, for years
Márcia, and a cabinet in Lumiar.
Márcia Silvano runs the cabinet alone. There is no reception desk, no rotating staff and nobody selling you a package on the way out — the person who assesses you is the one who treats you, on every visit.
She has been doing this for more than ten years. Her reviews say the same things in different words: she explains every step before starting, she is straight about what a treatment can and cannot do, the room is spotless, and the results look natural. Several clients have been coming for six, eight, ten years; one came back after three years away and says she had no doubt where to go.
- Same person, every visit
- Ongoing training in new methods
- Spotless room
- No promises she cannot keep
“She explains everything she is doing and does not promise what she cannot achieve.”

From the very first moment she gave me complete confidence, explaining the whole HIFU procedure in detail, clearly and honestly — the process and the expected results. The treatment matched exactly what was presented beforehand: no surprises, no exaggerated promises, only competence and rigour.
A welcoming, quiet space. Márcia is super professional, inspires confidence, explains everything she is doing and does not promise what she cannot achieve. I have been a client and a fan of the HIFU treatments for a few years and the results are incredible.
Three years later I chose to come back and had no doubt this was where I wanted to take care of my body again. The quality of the treatments, the cleanliness of the room, the equipment — but above all Márcia's knowledge, always up to date, always adapting the treatment to each client.
Very pleased with the result of the HIFU on my face and neck. Márcia was attentive and professional, explained the whole process and did the treatment with great care. The results are still progressing and I hope to come back.
Márcia is the best massage therapist in Lisbon. Deep knowledge of every technique she applies, finding every point that needed work. I left feeling much lighter.
Always looking for new forms of treatment. I do the Renata França method with her and the results are visible.
Before you ask
Q ·What is HIFU, exactly?
High-intensity focused ultrasound. Energy is focused at a precise depth — 1.5, 3.0 or 4.5 mm — where it heats a tiny point and triggers the body to produce new collagen. Nothing touches the surface: no needles, no cuts, no anaesthesia.
Q ·When do I see the result?
There is a light immediate effect, but the main result builds over two to three months as new collagen forms. It lasts around a year; many clients do one session a year to maintain it. Márcia tells you what to expect for your case at the assessment.
Q ·Does it hurt? Do I need time off?
You feel heat and small pulses of pressure during the session — it is well tolerated. There may be slight redness for a few hours. No downtime: you go back to your day the same afternoon.
Q ·How do I book?
Call or message 965 548 182, or send a message on Instagram. Every first visit starts with an assessment.
Q ·How much does it cost?
It depends on the zone and on the plan. The quote is given at the assessment, in person and with no obligation — there is no price list because the plan is different for each person.
Q ·Can I book just a massage or a drainage session?
Yes. Therapeutic massage and Renata França lymphatic drainage are booked on their own, no HIFU required.
