Ultherapy: Non-Invasive Skin Lifting & Tightening
Overview:
Ultherapy is a FDA-cleared, non-invasive procedure designed to lift and tighten skin on the face, neck, and décolletage. Utilizing advanced micro-focused ultrasound technology, Ultherapy stimulates collagen production deep within the skin, leading to a natural lifting effect over time.
Procedure Details:
Our trained professionals perform Ultherapy by targeting focused ultrasound energy to the foundational layers of the skin. This energy heats the targeted tissues below the surface, encouraging the natural regeneration of collagen. The procedure does not involve any creams or fillers—everything is done with precision ultrasound technology, leaving the surface of your skin completely unharmed.
Duration and Frequency:
A standard Ultherapy session can take between 30 to 90 minutes, depending on the area being treated. Most patients require only one treatment to see significant results, but some may benefit from additional sessions based on their skin's laxity and body's response to ultrasound therapy.
Preparation and Requirements:
Prior to treatment, you'll meet with a specialist for a consultation to ensure Ultherapy is the right choice for you. There are very few prerequisites for undergoing Ultherapy, but having a clear understanding of the treatment plan is essential. We'll walk you through any specific pre-treatment instructions to optimize your results.
Sensation and Pain Management:
Patients typically experience varying sensations of heat and tingling during the procedure. While discomfort levels vary from person to person, we aim to make the experience as comfortable as possible. If necessary, we can discuss pain management options.
Risks and Side Effects:
Ultherapy is considered safe and effective. Some patients may experience temporary redness, swelling, or tingling following the treatment. These effects are typically short-lived, and any discomfort is usually mild.
Recovery and Downtime:
One of the greatest advantages of Ultherapy is that there is no downtime. You can return to your normal activities immediately after the procedure. Slight redness or swelling that occurs will typically fade within a few hours.
Aftercare Instructions:
Post-treatment care for Ultherapy is minimal. We recommend a good skincare routine to maintain skin health and hydration. Our specialists will provide you with individualized aftercare tips.
Expected Results:
While some patients notice an initial improvement, significant results develop over two to three months
