You may not need a facelift to see tightened, toned, firmer skin. Ultherapy® is a popular method of skin tightening that uses ultrasound energy to stimulate collagen production. Sometimes called a non-surgical facelift, Skinathis treatment effectively lifts the skin as well as smoothing away lines and wrinkles.
Using ultrasound, Ultherapy® uses heat to stimulate cells in the deeper layers of the skin to begin producing collagen. This new collagen is behind the treatment’s power to lift and firm the skin. Ultrasound energy triggers the production of abundant new collagen.
According to Healthline, the average cost of treatments like Ultherapy® is about $1800. The actual cost will depend on the skill and experience of your provider, your location, the number of sessions required, and other factors.
Ultherapy® uses ultrasound energy to create heat in the lower layers of the skin. The cells react to this heat by releasing signals that tell the cells around them to begin the healing process. This includes the production of collagen, which gives skin its youthful appearance and resilience. Ultrasound energy can travel into the targeted layers of the skin without causing any harm to the skin’s surface.
Your specialist will apply numbing cream to your face and neck to keep you comfortable, making this treatment painless. Treatments last less than half an hour, and with no recovery time, they fit into your schedule.
Unlike a surgery that can require weeks of recovery, Ultherapy® requires no recovery time at all. You can leave the office and return to your regular activities. Some people may see some bruising, swelling, or redness that will go away within a few days.
While no non-surgical procedure can do what a facelift can, Ultherapy® provides an excellent option for people who don’t need a facelift yet but still want to see tighter, firmer skin. You can see lines and wrinkles disappear as skin becomes more toned and lifted.
Your results after Ultherapy® will develop over the course of several months. Once a new matrix of collagen has been built, you can expect results to last up to two years. Compare this to other treatments that require repeating every few months, and Ultherapy® could save money as well.
If you have loose skin around your neck and chin or lines and wrinkles you would like to see lifted away, you may be a good candidate. This treatment works best for people with mild loose skin and wrinkles. For people with more sagging skin or heavier wrinkling, we may recommend a facelift.
