What is Ulthera and Ultherapy?
Have you ever wondered if you will be able to reduce your excess skin, caused by sudden extreme weight loss from working out too much, or did you start to find interest or the wish to lift? However, no matter what, you fear major surgeries and facelifts, albeit those procedures are permanent, you cannot stomach going on the table for something you know you can treat with creams or laser treatments! Luckily, Ultherapy is your answer. After the age of 30, our collagen begins to deteriorate. The majority of women and men are even seeing minor changes in skin laxity prior to this age. With this, Ultherapy is an excellent treatment approach to utilize to keep your healthy and young-looking appearance. In addition, Ultherapy is a great way to tighten skin laxity with outcomes that were previously only possible with extensive face surgery. Many patients at our clinic, Amoa 640 Skin Clinic, are reaching out to us for the Ultherapy treatment, as it led for many to promising non-surgical lifting results.
Ultherapy is a mix of Ulthera, the treatment device, and therapy, the technique. Ultherapy. In a nutshell, it is the use of Ulthera as a technique of treatment. Its ability to raise the skin naturally with outcomes comparable to facelifts seems promising. Furthermore, no incisions are required to deliver this therapy. Instead, the Ulthera stimulates collagen and elastin in the skin’s deepest layer from the surface. It is also FDA and K-FDA-authorized, and suggested as an alternative to facelift surgery.
Ultherapy is an ultrasound-based therapy created by Ulthera (R) Systems and Merz Solutions. Ultrasound technology has long been employed in the medical industry for a wide range of ailments, check-ups, rehabilitation, and screening. Furthermore, it has demonstrated its safety and efficacy in the aforementioned areas. Amoa 640 Skin Clinic as well as other dermatologists and board-certified clinicians use ultrasound technology in cosmetology and aesthetics, such as Ultherapy, thanks to recent technical breakthroughs.
How does it work?
Ultherapy works by employing Ulthera to activate the body’s healing capabilities using targeted ultrasound energy. The doctor will gently massage the parts of your face that require elevation. The Ulthera will then highlight a precise location in your skin’s deepest layer and deliver ultrasonic waves into it with pinpoint accuracy. The treatment targets the skin’s SMAS layer. Then, the hot energy stimulates collagen, causing the skin to tighten.

Ultherapy typically does not need any downtime. Work, exercise, and socializing can all be resumed shortly after the following therapy. Depending on your body’s ability to manufacture new collagen, you may notice the initial benefits of Ultherapy within a few days. Improvement usually lasts up to three months. The effects will endure as long as your body produces new collagen and the natural aging process takes control. You can determine whether future Ultherapy treatments are required based on your skin’s reaction.
How to prepare for your treatment
The technique requires little preparation. Regular eating, drinking, exercise, and work schedules can be followed both before and after the surgery. However, we still require all patients at the clinic to undergo a face-to-face consultation with our board-certified doctor for safety purposes. Likewise, the consultation will help us determine if you may or may not have the Ultherapy, despite its all-encompassing nature because pregnant women, lactating women, and those with chronic illnesses may not be advised to proceed with the treatment.
In addition, the doctor also advises avoiding consuming alcohol, smoking, and drinking caffeine 24hrs before your session. You must also remove makeup and other skin care products on your face, for it may hinder the treatment’s optimal results. The doctor may advise you to take pain relievers or anti-inflammatory medicine before the operation only if your specialist instructs you to do so because, during the treatment, you may feel a slight burning or intermittent feeling of tingling sensation and heat throughout. If these drugs impair your ability to drive, make arrangements to be picked up from the clinic following treatment. The treatment is close to being painless, but we don’t want our clients to feel any discomfort or pain during the treatment. Thus, we utilize numbing creams. Afterward, a cooling treatment is administered to help with the burning sensation caused by the laser. Then, a conducive gel is applied onto the face before using the Ulthera device. The gel helps to attract more energy from the device, allowing you to optimize the device’s capabilities.
The treatment may last up to sixty to ninety minutes, depending on the severity of your skin and treatment combination. The treatment is inclusive to all skin types and skin colors, but it is best suited for adults in their early thirties and beyond.
Aftercare procedure
Like any other aftercare procedures, we highly advise all patients to use generous amounts of sunscreen throughout the face and neck for optimal sun protection amidst the healing period. This process allows the skin to work while under protection, allowing it to achieve optimal results. You may also want to re-apply every two hours and avoid harsh products, such as topical acne prescriptions during the healing period, for it may severely influence the healing process. Hence, you may want to opt for a milder cleanser and moisturizer and keep your skincare routine as simple as possible. In addition, you must follow the doctor’s prescribed [and specific] aftercare procedures along with the stated precautions [before the treatment] to help with the healing process and to achieve the desired results.
After your session, you may experience slight bruising, but it will eventually subside within a few days, so fret not. The results are also immediate, but the best outcome for your skin usually appears within a month because building collagen takes time, considering the treatment enhances the natural processes.
