Does Ultherapy® Really Work?
Ultherapy® is a revolutionary, non-surgical and FDA-approved procedure that uses ultrasound technology to penetrate deep below the skin. It is designed to lift and tighten the skin, reduce wrinkles and lines, and improve overall facial contours. But does it really work? The answer is yes!
What is Ultherapy?
Ultherapy is a non-invasive treatment that works by stimulating the body’s natural healing process to produce collagen in the treated area. This helps to lift and tighten the skin, reducing wrinkles and lines for a more youthful appearance. During treatment, your practitioner holds a specialized handpiece against your skin for around 60 minutes. Ultrasound energy passes through the skin layers, targeting specific areas of collagen production.
Before & After Ultherapy
The results of Ultherapy can be seen immediately after treatment with full results usually visible within 2-3 months as more collagen is produced and your skin contracts. Most patients report seeing an improvement in their facial contours, such as increased definition in their jawline or cheeks, as well as smoother wrinkles and lines. Results can last up to two years or longer with proper skincare.
Can you combine Ultherapy with other treatments?
Yes! Ultherapy can be combined with other treatments such as Botox or dermal fillers for even better results. Talk to your practitioner about what combination will best suit your needs.
Who can have Ultherapy?
Ideal Candidates for Ultherapy
Ultherapy is an ideal choice for individuals who want to address the signs of aging without resorting to surgery. It is a great option for those who are in their 30s, 40s, and 50s who want to restore their youthful appearance and boost their confidence. The treatment works best on individuals with mild to moderate skin laxity, such as sagging around the jawline, chin, and neck. Patients should have realistic expectations about what Ultherapy can do and be aware that it will not provide results as dramatic as a facelift or neck lift.
Men and Women with More Significant Aging Changes
For men and women with more significant aging changes, such as deep wrinkles or sagging skin on the face, neck, or chest, Ultherapy may not be the best solution. These patients may benefit more from more advanced treatments such as injectables or laser resurfacing. During your consultation at our practice office, we will discuss your concerns and goals to determine if Ultherapy is right for you.

How Does Ultherapy Work?
Ultherapy is a non-invasive treatment that uses ultrasound technology to penetrate deep below the skin and stimulate collagen production. This FDA-approved procedure is safe, relatively painless, and can help reduce signs of aging such as wrinkles, sagging skin, and jowls.
During an ultherapy treatment session, your practitioner will hold a specialized handpiece against your skin for around 60 minutes. The power of ultrasound energy is directed at the deeper layers of the skin, which helps to stimulate collagen production in these areas.
The Benefits of Ultrasound Technology
Ultrasound technology has long been used in medical applications for its ability to penetrate deep into the body without causing any damage or discomfort. With Ultherapy, this same technology is used to reach the deeper layers of the skin where it can effectively stimulate collagen production.
The use of ultrasound energy also has other benefits over traditional surgical treatments like facelifts. For one, it does not require any incisions or stitches, which means there is no risk of infection or scarring. It’s also much less invasive than other treatments, so there is no need for anesthesia or downtime afterwards.
A Safe and Relatively Painless Procedure
Ultherapy is considered a safe and relatively painless procedure with minimal side effects. Most patients report feeling some slight discomfort during the treatment but this usually subsides quickly after the procedure is completed. There may be some redness or swelling in the treated area but this should fade within a few days after treatment.
Overall, Ultherapy is a trusted and effective way to reduce signs of aging such as wrinkles and sagging skin without having to go through surgery or other invasive treatments. If you are considering Ultherapy as an option for improving your appearance, contact our practice office by phone at (407) 333-3040 to learn more about how it works and what results you can expect from your treatment sessions.
What Can I Expect After My Ultherapy Treatment?
Ultherapy is a safe, FDA-approved procedure that uses ultrasound technology to penetrate deep below the skin and stimulate collagen production. After receiving an Ultherapy treatment, you will notice visible tightness and definition in your treatment areas due to the increased collagen production and skin contraction. Results are usually seen within 3-6 months after the initial treatment session, and can last up to two years or longer with proper skincare.
Visible Tightness & Definition
After an Ultherapy treatment, you can expect to see visible tightness and definition in your treatment areas as more collagen is produced and your skin contracts. These results will become more noticeable over time as your body continues to produce collagen. Your practitioner may recommend additional treatments if they feel it is necessary for optimal results.
How Long Will Results Last?
The results of an ultherapy treatment typically last up to two years or longer with proper skincare. It is important to follow all post-treatment instructions provided by your practitioner, such as avoiding sun exposure and using sunscreen when outdoors, applying moisturizer regularly, drinking plenty of water, and avoiding smoking. Proper maintenance should be followed in order for the results of your Ultherapy treatment to last as long as possible.
