What Is UItherapy?

Ultherapy is a non-invasive cosmetic procedure designed to lift and tighten skin on the face, neck, chin, and brow, and improve lines and wrinkles on the décolletage.

Utilizing micro-focused ultrasound energy, Ultherapy targets the deeper layers of the skin to stimulate the body's natural collagen and elastin production.

This innovative treatment provides a rejuvenating effect without the need for surgery, offering patients a less invasive alternative to facelifts with no downtime.

How Ultherapy Skin Tightening Works at SkinDC

Ultherapy uses ultrasound technology to stimulate collagen production in the lower levels of the skin.

New collagen formation helps to lift and tighten skin without surgery; helping you achieve a more youthful look. The safety and efficacy of Ultherapy have been established through multiple clinical studies and over 1 million treatments performed worldwide.

Ultherapy is FDA-cleared for treatment on the neck, under the chin, and the brow, as well as to improve the appearance of lines and wrinkles on the chest or décolleté.

What to Expect With
Ultherapy Skin Tightening

During Ultherapy treatment, a SkinDC provider uses ultrasound imaging to identify the optimal layers of tissue for collagen regeneration. This ensures the energy is delivered to where it will be the most beneficial, resulting in targeted collagen growth.

 

During the Procedure

During Ultherapy treatment, you may feel the energy deposited to precise depths, indicating that the collagen-building process has been initiated. Comfort thresholds vary from person to person, but the sensation only lasts while the ultrasound energy is being delivered.

 

After the Procedure

Following the treatment, you may have some initial effects, but the ultimate lifting and tightening will occur over two to three months as tired collagen is replaced with new, more elastic collagen.

The skin's quality continues to improve over the following months, and the results can last a year or more for some patients.

 

Results & Recovery

Ultherapy requires no downtime, so you can resume your daily activities immediately after the procedure. Some patients may experience slight redness, swelling, or tenderness to the touch, but these are mild and temporary.

The results are gradual and natural-looking, culminating over two to three months as new collagen works to lift and tighten skin on the neck, chin, and brow, as well as smooth skin on the chest.

 

Safety & Suitability

Ultherapy is safe for all skin types, and a good candidate for this procedure is someone with skin that has "relaxed" to the point of looking less firm. A lowered eyebrow line, sagging skin on the neck, or lines and wrinkles on the chest indicate that Ultherapy might be a suitable option.

However, it's important to consult a qualified practitioner to discuss your needs, expectations, and whether Ultherapy is the right treatment.
