Ultherapy

Our faces can tell many stories; and while wrinkles might say ‘experience,’ droopiness can say ‘tired.’ Surgery has always been an option, but now there is Ultherapy, a non-surgical ultrasound treatment for counteracting the effects of time and gravity on your skin.

Ultherapy is the only non-surgical skin rejuvenation procedure that uses ultrasound to see below the skin and to specifically target the deep foundational layer of tissue that doctors address in surgery. The ability to treat not just the skin but its underlying support very precisely, from the inside out, helps to ensure both safe and satisfying results, with no downtime.

Comfort thresholds vary from patient to patient, and physician will discuss options for making the experience as pleasant as possible.

You are able to return to your normal activities right away, and there are no special measures you need to take. Your skin may appear a bit flushed immediately after treatment, but any redness should disappear within a few hours. It is not uncommon to experience slight swelling for a few days following the procedure or tingling/tenderness to the touch for a few weeks following the procedure, but these are mild and temporary in nature.

The results you can expect with just one treatment will experience the full effect that builds gradually over the course of two to three months. Some patients may benefit from more than one treatment.

Are you a good candidate?

A good candidate for Ultherapy is someone with skin that has “relaxed” to the point of looking, and often feeling, less firm. A lowered brow line or sagging skin on the eyelids, for instance, is often the first sign of “maturing” skin. While it does not duplicate the results from surgery, Ultherapy has proven to be an inviting alternative for those who are not ready for surgery.
