HIFU Center Landmark branch- The only non-invasive treatment for fibroid & adenomyosis in Kenya
Welcome to HIFU Kenya! HIFU Landmark Center is the first HIFU treatment center in Kenya, officially launched in early 2025. We are proud to introduce a non-invasive, uterus-sparing solution for women suffering from fibroids and adenomyosis.
Welcome to Nairobi HIFU Treatment Center
We are committed to providing High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) treatment, a non-invasive, precise, and safe medical technology. HIFU delivers focused ultrasound energy to targeted lesions, generating localized high temperatures that cause controlled cell destruction and completely cut off their blood supply while preserving the surrounding healthy tissue. Right side shows the JC300 Model, the latest and most advanced HIFU system. It offers higher energy precision, intelligent imaging guidance, and superior safety and comfort.

Initial Consultation & Imaging – Assess medical history, evaluate suitability, and checking MRI/ultrasound imaging result for precise lesion assessment.
Expert Diagnosis – Develop a personalized treatment plan.
Simulation Stage
Pre-Treatment Preparation – Conduct pre-procedure tests and confirm the treatment plan.
Precise Positioning – Use imaging guidance to accurately define the treatment area.

For Patients
What to Expect During HIFU Treatment
During the procedure, you will remain fully conscious and able to communicate with the medical team at all times. If you experience any discomfort, you can inform the doctor immediately. You will be positioned lying face down on the treatment bed, and it is crucial to stay as still as possible throughout the session to ensure precise targeting of the fibroids. The procedure is generally well tolerated, with only mild warmth or slight discomfort reported by some patients.
Detailed Precautions for the HIFU Procedure
MRI Examination
The doctor will need to take your medical history, assess suitability, and checking MRI/ultrasound imaging results to accurately assess the lesion.
Our HIFU Centre will help you contact the nearest partner hospital where you can have an MRI at a discounted rate.
Personalized Treatment Plans
The doctor will review your medical history, assess your condition, and evaluate whether HIFU treatment is suitable for you.
Necessary imaging tests will be recommended to develop a personalized treatment plan.
Simulation Phase
During the simulation phase, advanced imaging techniques will be used to precisely locate the treatment area, ensuring accuracy and safety. This step helps optimize treatment effectiveness and assists the doctor in formulating your final treatment plan.
Pre-Procedure Guidelines
Our doctors will inform you about the medications you need to take before the procedure, which are usually required two days in advance. Patients should also arrive at the clinic early for pre-procedure preparation.
During the Procedure
The doctor will continuously monitor your condition through a computer system and directly perform the treatment using precise computer-controlled technology.
Post-Treatment Phase
After the procedure, you will rest for about 2 hours under medical observation. Most patients can resume normal activities shortly after.
Follow-up appointments can be scheduled by your will to monitor your recovery and treatment effectiveness after around one month.
