All About Ultherapy

Ultherapy is the only non-invasive treatment cleared by the FDA for lifting and tightening the skin on the face, neck, chest, and brow, while improving lines and wrinkles. It uses microfocused ultrasound to lift and tighten loose skin over a few months, without any downtime. It is a proven treatment with a well-established safety profile.
The procedure takes about 30 to 90 minutes, depending on the area treated. It is also the only non-invasive procedure to use ultrasound imaging, which allows practitioners to actually see the layers of tissue targeted during the treatment and ensure the energy is deposited precisely to where it will be most beneficial.
While results appear over two to three months, patients have seen lasting results up to 2 years. The treatment produces new collagen which translates into visible results with tightening the skin. Future touch-up treatments can help provide more control over the aging process, which varies by individual.
The majority of patients only need one treatment; however, some may benefit from more than one treatment. This will Depend on how much skin laxity they have, their body’s own biological response to the ultrasound treatment and the collagen-building process. Follow-up Ultherapy treatments each year may help maintain results.
