Ultherapy applies high intensity focused ultrasound to lift, tighten and compact the skin without surgery and in a single session.
The technology reaches the facelift. Ultheraphy is an innovative medical device that allows skin tightening by means of ultrasound that heats the skin. A revolutionary technique, according to dermatology specialists, non-invasive and requiring only 90 minutes of intervention.
How does ultheraphy work?
Ultheraphy uses microfocused ultrasonic energy that reaches the deepest layers of the skin. This energy produces a specific heat that triggers collagen reorganization and renewal. The deep tissue is heated up to 65 degrees, but the outer tissue is not affected at any time, so the treatment is absolutely safe.
As Ultheraphy reaches the deepest layers of the skin, where the muscles that support the tissues are located, it generates micro-coagulation points that compact the tissue and reorganize the collagen fibers. It thus achieves a lifting effect.
Ultheraphy, advantages:
- Depth: reaches up to 4.5 mm deep into the skin.
- Temperature: it reaches temperatures between 65º and 70º in the dermis without affecting the skin surface. No redness or any type of alteration.
- Accuracy: it always reaches the same depth and its thermal coagulation points always reach the same temperature and have the same size.
- Safety: it has 4 FDA approvals, the only equipment with non-invasive lifting approval.
- Science: more than 33 clinical studies published in international journals endorse this technique.
Ultheraphy, results
This innovative non-invasive linfting method is indicated for the forehead and eyebrows, the entire chin and facial oval area, the neck and for the treatment of wrinkles in the décolleté.
At the end of the session, the patient appreciates a moderate tightening effect, although we must wait 2 or 3 months to begin to see the real results. They will be definitive after 6 months, when we will obtain the maximum effect, which lasts between a year and a year and a half.
No previous preparation or recovery time is needed, and the patient can return to normal life immediately after the treatment. In some cases, a slight tingling may be felt for a few days.
Ultheraphy, the future
Although it is not yet available in Spain, treatments for flaccidity of the arms and other areas of the body with Ultheraphy are already being developed and are proving to be a success in Europe.
In addition, Ultherapy is the only non-invasive treatment that is FDA (Food and Drug Administration) certified for facial and neck skin tightening.
