Ultherapy is the only non-invasive treatment cleared by the FDA for lifting the skin on the neck, chin, and brow, and improving lines and wrinkles on the décolletage. Ultherapy uses micro focused ultrasound to lift and tighten loose skin over time, without any downtime.
Some facts about Ultherapy are:-
It is not a facelift.
As ageing happens, skin begins to sag or become “loose”. Before the only way to counteract it was with surgery. With Ultherapy, there is no surgery involved and the technology is the most advanced on the market. It uses ultrasound - the time-tested technology used for decades - and the body’s natural healing process to lift your skin.
Your body’s healing naturally
lifts and tightens skin.
Ultherapy uses your body’s natural healing
process to lift and tighten the skin. Ultherapy stimulates the deep structural
support layers beneath the surface of the skin. Your body’s natural reaction to
repair that stimulated area is called neocollegenesis. Your body produces fresh
new collagen and the effect of this process is that the skin is lifted and
tightened.
There is virtually no recovery time.
Since Ultherapy is
not surgery and not invasive, your recovery after a 60-90 minute in-clinic
procedure is virtually immediate. You will need someone to drive you home after
the procedure but most times you can go about your day on the same day as
normal procedure. The level of discomfort that may be experienced is different
for each patient. Some say that it feels like a deep buzz that is more annoying
than painful. While others have reported it feels like a warm pulse that
amplifies.
This sensation is
temporary, as it only lasts while the ultrasound energy is given. Patients may
experience redness that lasts for a few hours and tenderness that may last for
a few weeks. The tenderness may feel like you have just exercised that
muscle.
Since it is a natural process, results occur over
2 to 3 months.
Since Ultherapy
uses your body’s natural reaction and healing, you will see your best skin
lifting and tightening results typically at about the 2-to-3-month mark.
Some patients even experience continued improvement for upwards of 6 months.
Ultherapy is not a laser.
Ultherapy uses
ultrasound technology. Lasers work on your skin from the “outside-in.”
Not so with Ultherapy, which works from the “inside-out.” It bypasses the
surface of the skin and penetrates deep within the skin tissues leaving no
marks or scars. By
doing this, it works to lift and tighten the skin non-invasively. It never
disturbs the surface of your skin.
Safe for all skin types.
Ultherapy is
colourblind. This means it is safe to use in
patients with skin of any colour and all skin types. The ultrasound energy
bypasses the more superficial layers of skin, leaving them intact and unharmed.
One visit is all that is needed to tighten and
lift skin.
Just one
60–90-minute visit is needed to see great results. Your body and its own ageing
process will also determine the time it takes to come back for more tightening.
No preparation required before your procedure.
Before your
treatment, you need not do anything special to prepare for your Ultherapy
session. The practitioners may recommend an over-the-counter or prescribed
medication be taken prior to the treatment if you feel it is necessary for pain
management. Typically, patients feel some discomfort during the procedure. This
indicates that the procedure is working and collagen is already being restored.
Someone with “relaxed” or maturing skin is a good
candidate.
You may be a
candidate for Ultherapy if you are experiencing skin laxity, sagging or droopy skin on the
neck and below the chin line, lowered eyebrows or age lines on the chest.
Side Effects.
You can expect mild redness on the surface of our
skin after the treatment.
In addition, a small percentage of patients can
experience some of the following things:
- slight
swelling
- tingling
- bruising
- sensitivity to
touch
- temporary
numbness on a small area of the skin
All of these side effects are mild and
temporary in nature - we will be able to resume normal activities within the
next 24 hours. In some cases, people can go back to work right after the
treatment. However, depending on our personal preferences, you can take a day
off from work but that is not always necessary.
When it comes to long-term side effects that
include hypopigmentation and hyperpigmentation, medical professionals have
discussed those as well. Yet they have not been able to notice any of them in
the months and years following the treatment.
Nerve injury is also a side effect that has been
under debate. However, if Ultherapy is performed by an experienced and
professional physician, the risk of nerve injury is basically non-existent.
Lastly, some people have connected thermal burns
with Ultherapy but those are also impossible to happen if we choose a medical
expert who knows how to perform the treatment safely.
Conclusion.
Even though it is non-invasive, Ultherapy is a
medical procedure; as such, it inevitably comes with potential risks. However,
common side effects are very mild and temporary in nature. That allows the
patients to resume their normal activities within the 24 hours after the
treatment.
When it comes to serious side effects, those are particularly rare and they have typically been linked to irresponsible and incompetent execution. Therefore, you must select an experienced physician who knows how to perform Ultherapy safely.
