Revolutionary New Nonsurgical Skin Tightening Treatment Now Available at The Skin Center Medical Spa, Columbus

Ultherapy Employs Ultrasound to Lift Sagging Brows, Face, Neck with No Downtime

(PITTSBURGH - August 11, 2011) - A revolutionary new nonsurgical treatment for lifting, tightening and rejuvenating loose and sagging skin is now available to clients at the Skin Center Medical Spa in Columbus,OH.

Combining ultrasound imaging with sound wave energy, the Ulthera® system is the first and only device cleared by the FDA for use as a noninvasive face and neck skin tightening treatment with a specific indication for nonsurgical browlift. Ultherapy® Skin Tightening Treatment enables practitioners to see and direct sound waves deep into and under the skin, heating the underlying tissue layers and producing firmer, more youthful skin without cutting or disrupting the skin's surface. The skin tightening treatment, which is completed in an hour or less, also stimulates the body to create new collagen, resulting in firmer, more youthful looking skin within weeks.

''This is the only FDA-cleared noninvasive skin tightening procedure capable of precisely targeting the deep tissue layers that would traditionally be addressed in surgery,'' says Fernando Colon, MD, board-certified plastic surgeon and medical director for The Skin Center Medical Spa. ''Ultherapy makes it possible for us to help to tighten the underlying support system of the skin while triggering the production of new collagen for natural and long-lasting results that actually improve over time.''

Ultherapy skin tightening treatment  is most frequently used to address sagging skin along the eyelid and eyebrow. As lax skin along the eyebrow is tightened, excess skin over the lids is reduced, opening up the eyes and producing a more refreshed appearance. Most patients see an initial skin tightening effect immediately following the Ultherapy treatment, but will see continued skin tightening improvement over two to three months as skin over the eyelid continues to tighten and lift with the production of new collagen. In most cases, only one Ultherapy treatment is required.

''There has been much anticipation for the Ultherapy treatment among our clients,'' says Nancy Dovell, certified medical aesthetician at The Skin Center Medical Spa. ''Ultherapy is a great option for individuals who want to stay ahead of the aging process, and its proven results have created quite a buzz.''

The Skin Center Medical Spa in Columbus, OH, will hold an Ultherapy Nonsurgical Skin Tightening Seminar on August 23, from 6 pm - 8 pm for those interested in learning more about the treatment.  To RSVP or for more information, call (614) 939-1188 or visit The Skin Center Medical Spa RSVP page.
