This is a non-surgical procedure that uses high-intensity focused ultrasound to stimulate the deep SMAS layer of the skin, enhancing lifting and elasticity.
Ulthera is a non-surgical lifting procedure that precisely delivers High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) to the deep SMAS layer of the skin to induce collagen regeneration and contraction. It is a representative treatment that lifts sagging facial, jawline, and neck lines without surgery.
Ultrasonic energy is delivered to a specific depth at a point to immediately contract collagen, and new collagen is generated over the following months, improving elasticity.
You will feel slight tightening immediately after the procedure, and the full lifting effect will gradually appear over 2 to 3 months.
You may experience a stinging sensation during the procedure, as well as temporary redness, swelling, and tingling. If sagging is severe, thread lifting or surgical lifting may be more suitable.
Ulthera is strong in lifting the deep SMAS layer using ultrasound, while Thermage is strong in elasticity and tightening the dermis layer using radio frequency, so they are often received together.
