Non-Invasive Facelift / Ultherapy
Ultherapy is the only FDA-cleared, non-invasive procedure that lifts the
neck, chin, and brow and improves lines and wrinkles on the upper chest. As we age, collagen breaks down, resulting in loss of skin strength and elasticity. Through time-tested ultrasound technology, Ultherapy helps produce new collagen growth.
What Are the Main Benefits of Ultherapy?
No Need for Surgery
This ultherapy treatment is an excellent alternative to lifting and
tightening the facial skin, which previously could only be done through
surgery. The treatment delivers precise amounts of ultrasound energy deep into the skin with no harm to the skin surface. Since this treatment uses an ultrasound technique, no toxins or incisions are used during this
process, leaving no scars.
This enables significant improvement in wrinkles, lines, and sagging skin to be completed without the potential complications or side effects associated with surgery. The ultherapy treatment is also ideal for individuals who are not allowed to go for surgery for health reasons.
No Downtime or Recovery Time
Due to the non-invasive nature of this therapy, there is no downtime or
post-treatment care needed. The treatment offers a lot of flexibility for
people with busy schedules and lifestyles, and after the treatment, you can immediately return to your daily routine. It is very comfortable as sound waves are applied to produce the desired results without the use of excess heat or surgical excision.
Treatment Is Customizable
One of the best benefits of this treatment is that it can be customized to
the individual’s needs. For example, the ultrasound device can be adjusted to alter how far down the energy is directed to produce the best possible results. The length of the treatment can be changed, as well.
The treatment can be applied to any face area, making it ideal for use in
conjunction with other cosmetic treatments. The skilled professionals at
Mariposa Aesthetics & Laser Center, Oklahoma City, OK, will help you map
out a perfect treatment plan for you if you want to combine the
therapy with injectable or resurfacing treatments.
Treatment Is Safe
After successful clinical studies and tens of thousands of sessions worldwide, the FDA approved this therapy as the only safe non-surgical treatment for sagging facial skin and wrinkles. You can be assured that the treatment will be carried out safely and that no harmful substances will be applied during treatment. The ultrasound technology itself is not new in the medical field, having been used in medical imaging for over half a century.
Treatment Is Quick
While it is common for you to be hospitalized for at least 24 hours after
you have gone through a surgical procedure, this is not the case with
Ultherapy. Ultrasound therapy is a quick treatment and does not require
any medical attention afterward. With this ultherapy treatment, you won’t
require several days of rest from work, and you can quickly get back to
your normal daily duties.
Long-Lasting Results
Although the results’ duration can vary from one person to another and may not be immediately visible, they last longer. Unlike other cosmetic
treatments that require monthly or seasonal check-ups, ultrasound therapy results can last from one year to many years after a single treatment.
Natural Results
While some treatments appear too quickly and may affect your facial
expression, ultrasound therapy results only become apparent gradually,
which means that your treatment will not be noticeable. The therapy
stimulates the cells under the skin to produce new collagen, a protein
found in the human body, which keeps the skin looking plump and healthy. As more and more collagen is produced, the structure and elasticity of the facial skin start taking firm shape. The healing process and tightening of the skin occur naturally from around three to six months.
Reduction of Aging Effects
Loose and sagging skin on the cheeks and jawline, wrinkles and drooping
eyelids are some of the telltale signs of aging. The restoration of
collagen results in firm and smooth skin that gives a youthful appearance,
hence reducing aging.
