What is Ultherapy?

Ultherapy is a non-invasive treatment that uses focused ultrasound technology to lift and tighten the skin naturally. By targeting the deeper layers of the skin, it stimulates the body’s own collagen production, which helps firm and tone areas like the face, neck, and décolletage. Unlike lasers or surgery, Ultherapy works from the inside out, delivering ultrasound energy to the precise depth where it’s most effective for tightening. Over time, as collagen builds, you’ll notice gradual, natural-looking improvements without any downtime. It’s a safe, FDA-cleared option for achieving a subtle lift without the need for surgery.

How does Ultherapy work?

The acoustic energy waves of the Ulthera System heat the underlying connective tissues of the face, to tighten and lift the skin without disrupting or irritating the surface of the skin. In just a few weeks, new collagen is formed, resulting in firmer, tighter and more youthful-looking skin.
Ultherapy Skin Tightening FAQs
  • What should I expect during an Ultherapy treatment?

    Prior to your Ultherapy treatment, you will have a personalized consultation to determine whether you are a good candidate for treatment.

    Typically, performed in under an hour, your provider will use an FDA-cleared ultrasound device to deliver focused energy beneath the surface of the skin, stimulating your natural collagen production. Patients vary in how comfortable they find the treatment, but most describe it as an intense warming or light tingling on the skin.

    Because the outermost layer of the skin is left untouched during treatment, most people find that they can return to their normal routine afterward, with their skin appearing flushed, similar to a mild sunburn.

     

  • What is the recovery time after Ultherapy treatment?

    The recovery time is generally mild. Side effects from the Ultherapy may include slight redness for a few hours following the non-surgical skin tightening treatment. Some people may experience slight swelling, tingling or tenderness for a few days or weeks following treatment.

  • What results can I expect from an Ultherapy non-surgical facelift treatment?

    Ultherapy non-surgical facelift treatments offer the visible effects of skin tightening and lifting with the invisible result of new collagen production. Within a few weeks, firmer, tighter, more rejuvenated skin is apparent, with continued skin tightening and lifting over the next two to three months.

  • How many Ultherapy treatments will I need?

    Ultherapy typically requires just one skin tightening treatment to achieve noticeable improvements in skin tone and firmness. However, results can vary, and some individuals may benefit from an additional session to maintain or enhance their outcomes over time. This personalized approach ensures you get the best possible results based on your unique skin and aging process.
