Ulthera, or Ultherapy, is a non-invasive option for skin tightening, and the FDA has approved it for the treatment of sagging skin. To treat and lift skin, this treatment uses ultrasound waves, and when compared with invasive alternatives, it has several benefits to offer.
The procedure is commonly used for the upper face, lower face and neck. Ulthera can give you some of the benefits of getting a surgical facelift without invasive surgery. With focused ultrasound, this procedure lifts and tightens the skin on your brow, chin or neck, and it doesn’t require you to take time away from work.
What Makes Ulthera Different?
During the procedure, focused ultrasound waves stimulate the growth of collagen within your skin, and over time, the growth of new collagen lifts and tightens saggy skin. Since we use ultrasound imaging, we can see the layers of your skin that we’re precisely targeting. With newer technology, the procedure is more comfortable than ever, and you shouldn’t experience any intense discomfort.
What are the Benefits?
This procedure is effective for tightening loose facial skin, and it uses ultrasound waves to heat the deep tissues under the surface of your skin. The treatment is useful for stimulating new and existing collagen, and one of the major benefits of the procedure is that it’s a non-surgical treatment. Many of our patients want the benefits that a traditional facelift has to offer, but they don’t want to undergo invasive surgery.
Ulthera can effectively rejuvenate your skin, and without the need for surgery, it can firm and tighten your skin. It’s also one of the only treatments that tighten skin with focused ultrasound technology.
Customized Treatment
Another major benefit of Ulthera is the potential customization, and by adjusting the energy depth, we can customize the treatment for your specific needs. The unmatched flexibility available with this treatment makes it ideal for combining with other cosmetic treatments. This can enhance the results obtained from each individual procedure.
No Downtime Required
One of the main reasons why our patients prefer to avoid surgery is because they don’t want to take time away from work. Some people can’t afford the loss of income, and for others, they can’t find a convenient time in their work schedule to accommodate traditional surgery.
After undergoing Ulthera, some patients will experience slight swelling or redness. However, in almost every case, there is no downtime associated with the treatment. This makes it extremely convenient for people with busy schedules and lifestyles.
Enjoy Natural Results
The results from Ulthera are gradual, which means they occur over time. The results from traditional surgery are immediate, but there is the risk that you’ll be left with an unnatural appearance. Ulthera stimulates collagen production and tightens your skin gradually, leading to natural-looking results.
