How Ultherapy works to lift sagging skin naturally
Ultherapy is a non-invasive skin tightening treatment that uses focused ultrasound energy to lift and firm skin on the face, neck, and décolletage. It stimulates collagen production deep within the skin—without surgery or downtime. As we age the appearance of “turkey neck” becomes more pronounced, this treatment can restore a more youthful appearance.
How is Ultherapy different from other procedures?
Ultherapy is the only non-surgical cosmetic procedure that uses focused ultrasound to stimulate the growth of new collagen deep within the skin. The production of new collagen occurs over time, so results can become more apparent over three to six months. The procedure takes only about an hour for most patients, and there is no downtime.
It also is the only procedure to use ultrasound imaging, which allows us to actually see the layers of tissue we target during the treatment and ensure the energy is deposited precisely to where it will be most effective.
Ultherapy recovery time
No downtime is required. You can resume normal activities right after treatment—though mild redness, swelling, or tenderness may occur briefly.
Ultherapy results – how long do they last?
Patients treated with Ultherapy still have fresh young collagen after a year’s time following the procedure, but skin continues to age. Future touch-up treatments can help keep pace with the aging process, which varies by individual.
How many treatments do i need?
The majority of patients only need one treatment; however, some may benefit from more than one treatment depending on how much laxity they have and their body’s own biological response to the ultrasound and the collagen-building process.
