a lift?
Get tighter, firmer skin with
Ultherapy, the face lift without
surgery or downtime.
A
lowered brow, sagging eyelids and a softening at the
jawline are often the first signs of facial ageing. While the
lines, wrinkles and loss of volume that contribute to an
aged appearance can be corrected with cosmetic injectables,
the treatment of sagging features needs a different approach if a
patient doesn’t want, or isn’t yet suitable, for surgery.
The Ultherapy system is the first ultrasound device cleared
for skin ‘lifting’ in a facial aesthetic medical application. Essentially
it uses ultrasound technology to address the same muscles
of the face and upper neck that are affected in a surgical facelift
or brow lift.
Conceived in the laboratories of Harvard Medical School,
Ultherapy is a non-surgical treatment that uses microfocused
ultrasound energy to tighten, lift and firm skin.
Ultherapy can be effective in creating a more defined jaw line,
firming the skin under the chin and on the neck, tightening the
skin on the brow and cheeks and reducing sagging around the
eyes and mouth.
Well known to be highly effective for lifting skin on the face
and neck areas, more recently Ultherapy can also be used on
the traditionally hard-to-treat décolletage, targeting wrinkles and
sun-damaged, leathery skin with no surgery and no downtime.
