Ultherapy


What is Ultherapy?
Ultherapy is the only FDA-cleared, non-invasive procedure that lifts the neck, chin, and brow, and improves lines and wrinkles on the upper chest. Through ultrasound imaging with Ultherapy, energy is delivered precisely to the place where it will benefit you most – for natural-looking results that improve over time.
As we age, collagen breaks down, resulting in loss of skin strength and elasticity. Through time-tested ultrasound technology, Ultherapy helps produce new collagen growth.
With Ultherapy, providers can see the layers of tissue they are treating, ensuring treatment is delivered to where it will be most beneficial.
FAQ:
WHAT DOES ULTHERAPY FEEL LIKE?
As ultrasound energy is delivered, you may feel the sensation of heat and/or tingling, indicating that the collagen-building process has been initiated. Treatment comfort levels vary from person to person, and your practitioner will discuss your personalized treatment plan with you.
WHO IS A GOOD CANDIDATE?
A good candidate for Ultherapy® is someone with some degree of laxity, to the point of looking, often feeling, less firm. Loose skin under the neck and under the chin, or lines and wrinkles on the chest, are signals a patient might be a candidate. Typically, those in their 30s who have mild to moderate skin laxity are candidates. While Ultherapy® is not a replacement for a surgical facelift, there are many people who may want some facial lifting but are not ready for surgery, whether mentally, physically, or financially. There are also younger people who want to “stay ahead of the game,” as well as patients wanting an aesthetic maintenance option.
