ltherapy® is an aesthetic procedure that is FDA-cleared for lifting the neck, chin and brow, for natural results that improve over time.
The technique utilizes microfocused ultrasound technology to generate heat beneath the surface of the skin and causes coagulation of collagen and elastin in the area. This induces the body's healing response, which gently lifts the skin over time.
Ultherapy offers a noticeable lifting and tightening effect that belies the fact it is a non-surgical treatment, offering multiple areas of application and results that improve over time.

ACHIEVE A BETTER LIFT OVER TIME
Ultherapy achieves a remodelling effect beneath the skin's surface that takes time to deliver results.
While some patients may see results after 6 weeks, most people see noticeable results within a 3-6 month window of a single visit with zero or little downtime.
These effects may last for up to 1 year or longer, whereupon many patients elect to book a follow-up treatment to prolong the lifted effect.
LASTING RESULTS IN A SINGLE VISIT
Ultherapy treatment provides a less drastic alternative than a surgical facelift for those seeking noticeable results with minimal fuss.
In particular, Ultherapy treatment opens up a face tightening opportunity that requires:
no surgery - no need to go under the knife or receive injections
a single visit - just a single 90 minute session is required for lasting results
little or no downtime - most people are able to dive straight into work and life activity immediately after treatment.
The role of collagen
The body's main structural protein
Collagen is the main structural protein between the body's connective tissues that helps provide the firmness and elasticity associated with youthful, healthy skin.
This collagen relaxes and loosens as part of the aging process, leading to a loss in elasticity and the knock-on effects of fine lines, wrinkles and sagging skin.
High-intensity focused ultrasound
Generating new collagen and elastin
Ultherapy's high-intensity ultrasound technology has several probes that are able to penetrate the skin to target the upper dermis (1.5mm), lower dermis (3.0mm) and superficial muscular aponeurotic system layers (4.5mm), affecting the muscles, skin and wrinkles.
The ultrasound stimulates production of new collagen and elastin, while reorganizing and strengthening the skin's foundations.
Ongoing regeneration of collagen
Up to 6 months of further tightening
The treatment generates new collagen and elastin while leaving behind tight, structured skin layers to provide targeted lift, tightening and EMShapeing of the facial contours - for firmer skin and fewer wrinkles.
For most people, the effects are most prominent at between 3-6 months after treatment and continue to take effect until up to a year or more.
