Ultherapy® harnesses the power of ultrasound to transform different areas of your face and body. Ultrasound is safe and effective and has been around for over fifty years. Ultherapy® has been proven effective and could be perfect for you.

What is Ultherapy® and Why is It Different?

Ultherapy® is the only non-invasive procedure cleared by the FDA to lift the skin on the neck, under the chin, and in the eyebrow area. It has also been FDA-cleared to treat the area of the decolletage. Ultherapy® can be the procedure you are looking for when you want to freshen up your look from your eyebrows to your chest.

Ultherapy® is also unique because it is the only cosmetic procedure that uses ultrasound imaging. This allows the professional to see the layers of tissue being targeted to make sure that the energy will be deposited where it will provide the most benefits.

How Does It Work?

Ultherapy® is entirely non-surgical. It bypasses the surface of the skin to deliver the precise amount of ultrasound energy to the right depths of tissue and at the right temperature. The energy activates a natural response under the skin, stimulating collagen production without cutting or disrupting the skin. With no downtime required, Ultherapy® will start working as soon as it is applied and will keep on improving as the days and weeks go by and more collagen is produced.

What are the Results?

As with any cosmetic procedure, results depend on the individual and on the condition of the skin to be treated. And although many patients report immediate improvements, it is after the passage of weeks to months that you will really see the difference.That is when the body will have had time to produce the desired collagen. While the treatment will not replicate the results of a facelift, it is a clinically proven non-invasive treatment when you are not yet ready for surgery. In some cases, it is also used to extend the effects of cosmetic surgery.

How Long Does the Treatment Take?

The length of the treatment depends on the size of the area being treated as well as your individual treatment plan.

A Closer Look at Ultherapy®

Collagen exists in 80% of the body. This protein lives in the skin’s dermis layer and is responsible for holding your body together. It also strengthens the skin and gives it the ability to “snap back” when stretched. This is an ultrasound treatment that awakens your body’s collagen to strengthen your skin. It improves its elasticity for a fresher, healthier-looking you! The Ultherapy® procedure is a US FDA-approved procedure that has been approved to:

• Lift skin on the neck, under the chin, and around the eyebrows.
• Improve lines and wrinkles on the decolletage area.

How Does Ultherapy® Work?

Like a traditional facelift, this procedure treats the dermis. Unlike a standard facelift procedure, however, Ultherapy® treats the dermal layer without disrupting the epidermal layer of your skin.

Ultherapy® is unique from other cosmetic treatments because it uses ultrasound therapy to deliver the ultrasonic energy at the right layer and temperature to stimulate the body’s natural regenerative process. The treatment encourages your body’s collagen production system to reverse the signs of aging.

How Long Do the Results Last?

You may notice some positive effects right after the treatment; however, over the following months, you will see tightening. The wrinkles and lines will also appear noticeably smoother. The lasting results are based on how each individual’s body produces collagen and ages. This procedure combats signs of aging, but it does not stop your body from aging.

If you are looking for a way to improve your overall appearance that is effective yet safe, you might want to take a closer look at Ultherapy®. It utilizes ultrasound energy to bring about therapeutic benefits. It is the same energy to which you have been exposed if you have ever had an ultrasound done for diagnostic or imaging purposes.

Loose skin leads to lines and wrinkles on the skin. Lines and wrinkles can show up as crow’s feet along the outsides of the eyes. Wrinkles can also show up across the forehead and around the mouth. Loose skin typically starts with the area around the jowls. Loose skin can also be a contributing factor for drooping eyelids.

The skin will start to loosen when the amount of collagen in the lower layers of it starts to decline. Collagen is a protein that helps tissue to stick together. It also provides fullness to the skin. As long as the collagen level remains high, the skin will remain firm and tight. However, the amount of collagen contained in the skin will not always be at a high level. As you begin to age, your body will slow its rate of collagen growth. Less collagen leads to loose skin. Wrinkles and sagging will develop as a result.

Ultherapy® is a safe and gentle way to stimulate the lower layers of the skin to start growing collagen at higher levels. This is a gradual process that will take place over the months following the therapy. As the collagen increases, the skin will once again become tighter, causing the lines and wrinkles to disappear.

The ultrasound energy utilized by Ultherapy® consists of high-frequency sound waves that are emitted from a hand-held unit that is passed across the surface of the skin. As the skin tissue absorbs the energy, it is gently warmed. The heat is what stimulates the collagen growth rate to increase.

Ultherapy® provides the advantage of allowing the provider giving the treatment to see what is happening in the tissue on a computer screen. This is because the sound waves bounce off different kinds of tissue at various rates. The data is converted to an image that is displayed on the screen. By having a visible image of how the therapy is working, adjustments can be made to ensure the energy reaches the proper depth in order to produce optimum results.

Ultherapy® is the ultimate weapon for someone looking to put up a fight against the effects that gravity is having on their skin. Gravity can be your best friend. It can also be your worst enemy. This is usually the case when talking about aging. Gravity pulls on your skin and on your facial features. As a result, your skin starts to sag and you have a collection of jowls right underneath your chin.

In times past, the best option for treating loose and saggy skin was surgery. Now, Ultherapy® provides an effective, non-surgical option that produces powerful results without the discomfort or the downtime that is associated with surgical procedures.

What makes Ultherapy® so powerful is the fact that it has the ability to target specific parts of your facial foundation. It is this pinpoint accuracy that allows the cosmetic professional performing your procedure to give you amazing results. The procedure takes advantage of ultrasound imaging. So, during the procedure, we can actually see the layers of tissue that are being targeted. This allows us to perform this procedure in a precise and effective way.

The nice thing about ultrasound energy is that it is a technology that has been tested through and through. It has been shown without a doubt to be safe, and it has been shown without a doubt to be effective. Recently, the Food and Drug Administration approved the use of ultrasound technology in cosmetics with the goal of tightening your skin.

When ultrasound energy is directed under the surface of your skin, it encourages your body to make new collagen. Collagen is like a natural healing factor for your skin. In fact, when you are young, the reason why your skin is so tight and the reason why your skin is so supple is because your body is producing an abundance of collagen. Unfortunately, as you get older, your body starts to produce less collagen, and this along with gravity’s effect on your face is why your skin starts to sag.

It is important to emphasize that Ultherapy® is not surgery. It is not an invasive procedure. Nothing is cut, and nothing is disrupted on your skin’s surface. This is a great option for you if you’re not ready to go under the knife.

The safety of this procedure is unquestionable. It has been cleared by the FDA, tens of thousands of people have had the treatment performed around the world and ultrasound energy has been a key aspect of medical procedures for more than half a century.

Sagging skin on the jowls and around the lower part of the cheeks is caused by thinning skin and a lack of support from the underlying tissues. Loose skin can also wrinkle and fold, negatively affecting the appearance.

Tightening and lifting the skin can be accomplished through the use of ultrasound energy. The treatment known as Ultherapy® uses sound energy to stimulate collagen production, and the results can be long-lasting. This revolutionary procedure can take years off your appearance by strengthening the skin and support tissues.

Ultherapy® is based on the idea that sound energy is transferred to kinetic energy in the body’s tissues. This stimulates a response by the body, and nutrients are sent to the affected area for the formation of new tissue. As collagen production increases, the skin becomes more taut and supple. We invite you to contact us to learn more about how sound energy can help you restore your face to its more youthful appearance.

How Sound Energy Helps Tighten Skin
The instrument used in Ultherapy® is a handheld device connected to a monitoring station. The device sends out pre-calibrated frequencies of sound energy. Sound is the rapid vibration of molecules, and it travels in waves, much the same way water waves move in a specified direction without the water itself moving much at all.

The frequency of the waves used in Ultherapy® are pre-set to allow the energy to pass right through the upper skin layers. The energy is absorbed further down at the level of the supporting tissues. This kick-starts a process of tissue rejuvenation. The body actually interprets the energy absorption as a slight injury. The response is to build up healthier tissue and produce more collagen.

Additional Considerations
Clients need not follow any sort of pre-treatment regimen. The client may notice a bit of tightening right away, but the real improvement takes place over the next two or three months. It takes this long for collagen to build up in the skin, and the result is smoother, more taut and supple skin.

When a person decides to start a new medical treatment, it only makes sense that they are going to have some questions. This is even more true when talking about a cosmetic medical procedure. People often ask themselves what the treatment does, how effective it is and how it could work for them.

For example, Ultherapy® is a relatively new cosmetic procedure that has produced amazing results in thousands of people. If this is your first time hearing about this treatment, you likely want to know what it is and what it does.

Ultherapy® is a safe, non-surgical and quick procedure. One of the reasons why the results are so fast is because the procedure relies on your body’s regenerative response to help tighten the skin that is underneath your neck, underneath your chin, or around your eyebrows.

What is it that makes Ultherapy® so unique? Well, one of the unique characteristics of this therapy is that as of this date it is the only treatment that the FDA has cleared to lift skin. Additionally, it is the only cosmetic procedure currently on the market that uses ultrasound imaging.

What makes the use of ultrasound imaging so unique is that it allows the practitioner to visually examine the layers of skin that they are working on during the procedure. This means that they are able to use the energy in an area that is going to be most effective. Something that is also unique about this procedure is that it is the only procedure that the FDA indicates can improve lines and wrinkles on a person’s chest.

Ultherapy Face is a very powerful procedure. It is able to address the foundation tissues that create the contour of your face. It is the perfect procedure for someone who is concerned about the appearance of their face, but who does not feel like their face has reached a point where they need surgery. It is also perfect for individuals who have had surgery a couple of years ago and want to extend the life of their facelift procedure.

The procedure does not take a very long time. You can usually have the procedure performed within an hour and a half. There is no downtime, so you can get back to work or your other daily activities as quickly as you would like to.

As you are undergoing the procedure, you do not need to worry about experiencing much discomfort. You will simply feel the effects of the energy being deposited into your tissue. This is a good sign because it indicates that your body has started to create collagen, which is a key part of your skin tightening procedure.
