Get to Know Ultherapy: The Non-Surgical Facelift

At some point, we will all look in the mirror and see our face begin to transform. Age begins to sneak up on us until our face becomes a bit less familiar. Yet, not everyone wants extensive cosmetic procedures or surgery to maintain their youthful glow. 

Ultherapy may be the perfect solution for a completely non-invasive anti-aging skin treatment. This introductory guide explores the benefits of Ultherapy along with all the answers to your questions about this revolutionary therapy. 

What is Ultherapy and How Does it Work?

Ultherapy uses ultrasound waves to deeply penetrate the skin, initiating the healing process without affecting the top layer. It gently heats the dermis layers to activate collagen production, a protein responsible for the skin’s elasticity and firmness. The technician simply applies a conductive ultrasound gel and then passes the patented device over the target area at the perfect setting.

Ultimately, it helps to tighten and lift the skin without injections, chemicals, or surgery to effectively give you the appearance and benefits of a facelift. The results begin appearing around two to three months after, but could still be improving after six months.

Who is a Good Candidate for Ultherapy treatment?

Collagen production begins to decline in our 30s and 40s resulting in looser skin and eventually, wrinkles. Ultherapy helps people in this age range with mild to moderate skin laxity improve their complexion and enjoy their youthful glow longer. 

What are the Benefits of Ultherapy?

There are significant benefits for Ultherapy clients, most of all being pain-free, non-invasive cosmetic treatments for skin improvement. Yet, this isn’t all, and Ultherapy is highly desireable for the following reasons:

• No downtime
• Utilizes the body’s healing abilities
• Zero injections or surgical procedures
• FDA and science-backed
• Natural looking results

It treats the face, neck, and decollage; yet, people have the greatest success after Ultherapy for the jawline and neck area. This aesthetic treatment option is convenient and easy without excessive preparation or aftercare instructions, making it ideal for people wanting an improvement without too much fuss or a challenging healing process.

What are the Side Effects of Ultherapy treatments?

Most people report mild redness, slight bruising, or numbness in the treatment area, follwed by a lingering tingling feeling; however, this is temporary and should subside as the skin heals. In very rare instances, recipients may experience:

• Ongoing numbness or tingling
• Burning sensation
• Chronic pain
• Muscle weakness

For the best results, it is essential to allow trained and experienced technicians apply Ultherapy techniques as they know the best settings to accomplish your goals without causing discomfort and minimal side effects.

How Much Does Ultherapy Cost, and is it Covered by Insurance?

The cost of Ultherapy will vary depending on the treatment area and the medical spa location; however, you can expect costs to range between $1000 and $5000. For example, a Ultherapy face treatment may cost $3500 where as the neck would be an additional $1000. 

Unfortuneately, insurance coverage is not available for Ultherapy sessions.

How Long Do the Results of Ultherapy Last?

After your 60 to 90 minute session, the results of Ultherapy can last for approximately one year, with additional treatments recommended every one to two years. You can look forward to minimal procedure time, without recovery or downtime, and enjoy the benefits of Ultherapy for longer than other more invasive procedures.
