Ultherapy uses micro-focused ultrasound to lift and tighten the skin in targeted areas of aging like the neck, brow and jawline.
Ultherapy is the gold standard and only FDA cleared non-invasive treatment to lift and tighten your skin. Ultherapy is approved for the neck, chin, brows and chest. It can be used off label in other areas such as the knees and abdomen as well. Ultherapy is often seen as the non-surgical mini facelift or all around skin tightener through the use of micro focused ultrasound it delivers energy precisely to where it will benefit you producing natural looking results that improve over time.
After approximately 3-6 months you will start to see a gradual lifting and tightening of the skin. The results are long lasting and very natural. It will look like your are essentially turning back time as skin laxity disappears and the skin looks more refreshed and rejuvenated.
After a proper evaluation and discussion of areas to be treated a unique regiment customized to your skin and concerns will be created. The skin will then be cleansed, ultrasound gel will be applied and the Ultherapy treatment will begin. Our Ultherapist will visualize your skin using the ultrasound and deliver the energy to the areas of skin that will most benefit you. While Ultherapy is not painless, there are many steps we offer to mitigate pain, the most popular is the use of Pro-Nox Nitrous Oxide, just like the safe laughing gas you received at the dentists office when you were a child, Pro-Nox alleviates the stress and pain associated with the Ultherapy procedure. There is no downtime with the procedure, and you can return to work immediately. In fact Dr. Elias has been known to do Ultherapy on himself at lunch time and see patients in the afternoon with no problems.
The best part of Ultherapy is that it can be combined with many other treatments such ad Botox, fillers, CoolTone, microneedling, Plasma, etc. yielding even more noticeable synergistic effects. There is no age requirement associated with Ultherapy but it is typically seen as a treatment for those that are not quite yet at the facelift or surgical lift stage of their treatment paradigm. Typically, Ultherapy is an excellent choice for men and women between 30 and 65 looking to lift, tighten and visibly improve their skin over time.
