What Is Ulthera?

Ultherapy with the Ulthera device is substantially different than other aesthetic devices. Ultrasonic energy stimulates the growth of collagen which is responsible for skin's ability to bounce back and maintain its shape. Over time, the collagen breaks down, often causing sagging and wrinkles. New collagen growth makes skin appear tighter and firmer.

How Does Ulthera Work?

Ulthera adds in the benefit of DeepSEE technology. Using the same ultrasound that's treating the patient, the doctor can see under the skin just as with traditional sonograms. This enables physicians to see what they're doing easier than ever before. The doctor can better ensure they're treating skin at the proper depth for maximum results.

Ulthera is a simple procedure that can be performed during the lunch hour. Since there is no downtime or healing time required, most patients can return to work right away. Many patients see results immediately with continued improvement over the next couple of months.

What Are The Risks Of Ulthera?

While Ulthera is completely nonsurgical, risks of Ulthera may include some redness immediately after the procedure but this should disappear within a few hours. Common side effects include slight swelling for a few days post treatments or mild tingling/tenderness to touch for the next few days to weeks. Less common post-treatment effects are small areas of bruising or numbness.
