Ulthera® uses focused ultrasound technology to increase elastin and collagen in the skin. This non-invasive technology provides a natural lifting and tightening effect.
Ulthera is indicated for:
· Lift of the Eyebrow
· Lift the lax tissue under the chin and neck
· Lift and tighten the skin of the neck and chest(decollete)
· Reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles in the skin of the face, neck and chest.
During the treatment, the DeepSEE transducer allows for direct visualization of the targeted tissue ensuring a completely comfortable treatment. Then, high intensity focused ultrasound(HIFU) is delivered through the applicator and concentrated at the proper tissue depth. Thousands of tiny attachment points are generated in the structure that supports the facial tissue. Tissue regeneration is provoked and gradually restores the supportive collagen and elastin of the skin and underlying tissues.
The upper layer of the skin remains intact and the smoothing effect is gradual and natural. Apart from brief localized redness, occasional swelling and temporary sensitivity on the treated area, no downtime is seen.
We know that collagen loss begins in our 20’s. Protecting this and preventing loss will slow the aging process of the skin. Therefore, Ultherapy should be started as soon as changes begin to get the best long lasting results.
