Frequently asked.
-
Ultherapy deposits focused ultrasound energy deep beneath the skin at the optimal temperature for collagen regeneration. The treatment jumpstarts a natural process, known as neocollagenesis, to produce fresh, new collagen. Ultherapy doesn’t involve any creams, fillers or toxins; it just relies on your body’s own collagen-building process for natural, noticeable results.
-
Ultrasound energy has been safely used in the medical field for over 50 years and can effectively penetrate the skin surface without damaging the skin or surrounding tissues. When directed into treated areas using a handheld device, the ultrasound energy stimulates the skin to begin creating new collagen—the essential protein in the skin responsible for structure and strength.
In addition to using ultrasound therapy during treatment, Ultherapy also utilizes modern ultrasound imaging to accurately view and precisely target treated areas for optimal results. Throughout treatment, patients may feel tiny bursts of energy being delivered into the skin, but this procedure is typically well-tolerated.

In addition to lifting lax skin using non-invasive ultrasound energy, this treatment has several advantages to patients. For starters, it is the only non-invasive treatment cleared by the FDA for the indication of correcting lines and wrinkles on the chest. Additionally, although the extent of your treatment depends on the targeted area, Ultherapy typically only requires 30 to 120 minutes of your time, making it an ideal solution for patients who have busy schedules. And with no downtime or healing necessary, most patients are able to return to normal activities immediately. Finally, Ultherapy has been used in over two million treatments worldwide, ensuring safety and efficacy.
-
Ultherapy treats the deep foundational layer addressed in cosmetic surgery, but won’t duplicate the results of a facelift. Ultherapy is a great alternative, however, especially for those not ready for surgery or for clients looking to extend the effects of cosmetic surgery.
-
Although some initial effects may be felt by some patients, it typically takes around two to three months for new collagen to develop in the skin and up to six months for full results to be evident. Ultherapy promotes subtle changes to your skin over time for results that last. The visible signs of aging cannot be completely prevented, but regular treatment and a good skincare regimen can help add longevity to your results. Some patients may also choose to have CoolSculpting treatments or body contouring alongside Ultherapy.
