the process
Ultherapy uses ultrasound to create images of the skin and underlying tissue. The images help the doctor deliver precise energy to the skin. The energy stimulates the body’s natural healing process to create new collagen. This results in tighter, firmer skin.
THE BENEFITS
Unlike Lasers, Radio frequency, surgery, and other technologies, Ultherapy PRIME® is the only FDA-cleared ultrasound with real-time imaging that allows your provider to go deeper to reach the right skin layers for your most beneficial treatment.
Benefits include:
No needles
Minimal downtime
Natural-looking results
Long-lasting results
common treatment areas
Ultherapy can be used to treat your entire face, chin, neck, décolletage, eyelids, brow, and jaw line.
BEFORE
Since the non-invasive treatment is truly personalized with Ultherapy PRIME®, it’s best to schedule a consultation, during which your practitioner will assess your skin, address your concerns, and will define an optimal treatment plan based on your own specific needs.
DURING
After cleansing the skin and identifying the areas to be treated, your Ultherapy® practitioner will apply ultrasound gel and place a smooth treatment applicator against your skin.
Your practitioner will then use Ultherapy PRIME® unique real-time imaging to assess your skin to precisely deliver energy in your collagen-rich layers.1, 9, 10
During treatment, you may feel the sensation of heat and/or tingling while the energy is being delivered, indicating that the collagen-building process has been initiated. Comfort levels can vary from person to person, as does length of treatment, per individual treatment plan. Ask your practitioner about your customized plan.
after
Nonsurgical Ultherapy PRIME® is a safe and effective treatment for all skin tones. There is no downtime, so you can resume your normal activities immediately after the treatment, following the instructions of your practitioner.
Your skin might appear flushed at first, but the redness should disappear within a few hours. Some patients experience slight swelling, tingling, or tenderness to the touch, but these are mild and temporary in nature. Your practitioner will be able to inform you about other less common post-procedural effects as needed.
