Ultherapy® – Innovative Skinlift Technology
Ultherapy® is a non-invasive treatment that uses micro-focused ultrasound to tighten and lift skin.
Tissue laxity is largely the result of structural weakening in the skin’s foundation (SMAS/Platysma) at approximately 4.5mm deep.
Prior to Ultherapy®, this layer was only accessible during a surgical facelift.
The Ultherapy® procedure stimulates collagen production by delivering focused ultrasound energy to the skin’s foundational layer to non-invasively target the same deep tissue planes as a modern facelift —without cutting or disrupting the surface of the skin.
The Ulthera® System is the only non-invasive device that allows clinicians to see where they’re treating. Using Ulthera’s patented DeepSEE® technology, the system provides real-time ultrasound visualization of the skin down to 8mm.
This “See & Treat” technology lets clinicians verify energy is being delivered at the correct tissue depth , ensuring the treatment energy is delivered to where it will be most beneficial.
This energy triggers a natural response under the skin, jumpstarting the regenerative process that produces fresh, new collagen.
Benefits of Ultherapy® Facelift
Improves density and elasticity of dermis
Ultherapy® increases skin elasticity and density by 22% within 4 weeks and up to 58% within 6 months due to increased collagen production.
Precise energy delivery
Ultrasound imaging is used for real-time visualisation of the facial structure during treatment to ensure the energy is delivered to the precise depth required to produce the best possible results.
Natural-Looking Enhancement
Ultherapy® causes gradual tightening of the tissue through collagen stimulation, resulting in a very natural look. This can cause anti-aging results without the risks and healing issues related to surgery.
Increases skin strength and lifts sagging skin
Ultherapy® non invasively targets the same deep tissue planes as a surgical facelift, resulting in significant reversal of the 3 “D”s of ageing: Deflation, Deterioration and Descent.
Customized to You
Ultherapy® can be tailored to your precise needs and desired results, no matter how much skin laxity you have or the specific treatment areas you want to address. By creating customised treatment protocols, the treatment can work on any area of the face, including the forehead, brow line, cheeks and midface, jawline and neck.
Reduces excess sagging facial fat
Ultherapy® selectively reduces fat bulges such as eyebags, heavy jowls and double chin to sharpen facial contours and reverse the effects of gravity.
Long-Lasting Results
Ultherapy® works in two different ways to achieve the face lifting you are seeking. By combining an “outside-in” and “inside-out” approach, the combination treatment targets the underlying dermal structure to constrict for immediate lifting while stimulating the skin’s production of collagen. As collagen is produced to support the underlying layers, the skin will maintain its tighter more youthful appearance for a longer period.
Frequently Asked Questions
How does the treatment work?
Ultherapy® delivers high intensity microfocused ultrasound wave energy precisely into the skin layers to target both deep and superficial skin structures at the same time. The focused energy delivery stimuates skin repair and rejuvenation, and activates healthy skin formation.
Ultherapy® naturally regenerates aging and damaged skin to make healthy skin and promotes skin elasticity.
As a result, skin will lift and tone over a period of several weeks.
How is the treatment done?
Numbing cream is first applied before starting treatment. The internal skin structure of every patient is then visualised using the patented DeepSEE® technology in order to create a customised treatment plan where parameters such as intensity and depth of the energy delivery are determined to ensure that the treatment energy is delivered to the different layers of the skin where it will be most beneficial.
Treatment is completed within 90 minutes, after which a Mask and Photodynamic Light Therapy is applied to immediately reduce any visible downtime.
How many times should I undergo this treatment?
To enjoy the full benefits of the Ultherapy® treatment, we recommend a program of 3 treatments over a period of 2 years to ensure optimal results that are long-lasting and sustainable. Treatment results can then be easily maintained with single treatments done every 12 to 24 months, to continue to enjoy the skin benefits it provides.
Am I suitable for this procedure?
Ultherapy® treatment promotes skin repair, strengthening, lifting and rejuvenation at multiple layers of the face and neck.
The treatment can also be designed to sharpen facial contours by reducing double chin, chubby cheeks, jowl fat and eyebags.
Every individual receives a customised treatment plan based on individual needs.
Ultherapy® can benefit patients regardless of age or severity of skin laxity, as the treatment can be designed as a preventive anti-aging procedure, or to address visible signs of ageing.
Ultherapy® TREATS:
SKIN LAXITY AND FINE LINES
UPPER EYELID LAXITY AND FINE LINES AROUND EYES
AGING SKIN WITH DEEP LINES AND WRINKLES
SAGGING JOWLS, DOUBLE CHIN AND EYEBAGS
What kind of results can I expect?
The regenerative process begins as soon as the treatment is administered and an immediate natural lifting may be seen. The full effects of the treatment will take about 2-3 months as it takes time to stimulate the body’s natural collagen production.
Visible improvements are the result of an actual lifting and strengthening of the skin structure and the effects are not a temporary “masking” of ageing like botulinium injections and filler. With a healthy diet and skincare regime, patients can enjoy the long lasting benefits of the treatment.
