Home » Non-Surgical » Ultherapy®

Ultherapy is a non-invasive treatment that uses ultrasound technology to lift and tighten your skin. It targets areas such as the neck, chin, and brow, reducing wrinkles and improving overall skin texture without surgery.

Lift and Tighten Skin
Using Ultrasound Energy

Ultherapy is a cutting-edge, non-invasive procedure designed to lift and tighten the skin. It utilizes focused ultrasound energy to stimulate the production of collagen deep within your skin. This treatment effectively targets areas like the neck, chin, and brow, offering a natural-looking lift without surgery. By using ultrasound imaging, our practitioners can see the layers of tissue they are treating, ensuring precision and optimal results. Ultherapy is an excellent option for those looking to reduce wrinkles and improve skin texture with minimal downtime.

Ultherapy® Treats:

  • Sagging skin on the neck
  • Drooping skin under the chin
  • Wrinkles and fine lines on the décolletage
  • Brow drooping
  • Loose skin on the upper face
  • Loss of jawline definition
  • Skin laxity on the chest

How Does Ultherapy® Work?

Ultherapy uses focused ultrasound energy to penetrate deep into the skin’s foundational layers. This energy stimulates the production of new collagen, a crucial protein responsible for skin strength and elasticity. The ultrasound waves target precise depths, heating tissue without affecting the skin’s surface. This thermal energy triggers a natural regenerative response, gradually lifting and tightening the treated areas over time. This encourages gradual improvement in skin firmness and texture without surgery or downtime.

Your Ultherapy® Session

During Your Ultherapy Session, A Trained Practitioner will begin by cleansing your skin and identifying the areas to be treated. A gel will be applied, and the Ultherapy device will be placed against your skin. Using ultrasound imaging, the practitioner will adjust the settings to target the specific depths needed for collagen stimulation. You may feel a mild to moderate tingling or heat sensation as the ultrasound energy is delivered. The entire process typically lasts between 30 to 90 minutes, depending on the treatment area.

Ultherapy® Recovery & Aftercare

After your Ultherapy session, you can resume your normal activities immediately, as there is no downtime. You might experience mild redness, swelling, or tingling, which typically subsides within a few hours. To care for your skin, avoid excessive sun exposure and use a gentle cleanser and moisturizer. You should also apply sunscreen daily to protect your skin. Over the next few months, you’ll notice gradual improvements as your body produces new collagen, resulting in a natural lift and tightening of the treated areas.

Ultherapy® Results

Ultherapy results appear gradually over 2 to 3 months as new collagen forms, lifting and tightening your skin. Most patients see significant improvement after a single session, though some may benefit from additional treatments based on their skin’s condition and goals.

The results typically last about a year, with maintenance sessions recommended annually to sustain the effects. You will notice smoother, firmer skin and a more youthful appearance, all achieved through a non-invasive procedure that activates your body’s natural collagen production.
