Ultherapy is all-the-buzz! You may have seen it featured on national TV shows such as Rachael Ray, The Doctors, 20/20 and The View, plus touted by big-name beauty editors from Vogue, Harper’s Bazaar, Marie Claire and more.
At Avani Derm Spa by Nayak Plastic Surgery, we offer the acclaimed non-surgical lifting procedure, Ultherapy, which counteracts the effects of time and gravity on your face and neck skin. The beauty of this 60-minute in-office procedure is that it stimulates the production of new collagen non- invasively. The result? Tighter, better-fitting skin! And now, there’s even more to talk about! Ultherapy is also the only non-invasive treatment specifically FDA-cleared to improve the appearance of lines and wrinkles on the décolletage!
Ultherapy uses ultrasound technology to deliver thermal energy to varying depths of tissues to promote collagen remodeling.
As the body repairs damaged tissues, the treated skin becomes healthier, firmer, tighter, and smoother without a single incision, invasive treatment, or downtime. Its ability to induce remodeling in deeper tissues, such as the underlying muscles in target areas, produces a more substantial lifting effect than treatments that focus on the skin’s surface.
Ultherapy produces significant skin rejuvenation results without surgery, painful treatment, or downtime.
Ultherapy firms skin and underlying tissues to achieve more substantial lifting than can be achieved with surface treatments. Ultherapy is customizable to target tissues at varying depths with varying temperatures. Although Ultherapy cannot produce the same dramatic results as a surgical facelift, it effectively lifts and tightens the deeper tissues included in a surgical lift treatment. Ultherapy can address the concerns of surgical facelift patients who are not yet ready for surgery.
Therefore, Ultherapy may be an ideal treatment option for patients who are considering future surgical treatment as well as those who would like to treat their concerns without surgery. Ultherapy is FDA-approved to lift the skin and smooth wrinkles in the face, neck, eyebrows, under the chin, and decolletage. Treatment is convenient and produces gradual and natural-looking results so that you simply look like a refreshed you!
On the day of your treatment, your providing specialist will cleanse the target area and apply an ultrasound gel. Then, your specialist will set the device for your personalized treatment. Next, your specialist will move the device throughout the target area, applying ultrasound to the skin and underlying tissues.
Treatment may take as little as 30 minutes for the chest up to 60-90 minutes for the face and neck. There are no restrictions after treatment, and you can return to all of your regular activities the minute you leave our office!
You will begin to notice a difference in your skin just a few days after treatment. However, your results will continue to improve for about three months. Based on your results, you may need subsequent treatments spaced four to six weeks apart to reach the best results possible.
However, many patients achieve their goals in just one treatment. Ultherapy results typically last about two years. However, many patients schedule their treatments annually to maintain its effects.
Avani Derm Spa by Nayak Plastic Surgery offers expert application of Ultherapy and other skin rejuvenating treatments in St. Louis.
Ultherapy delivers significant skin tightening and collagen remodeling through multiple layers of tissue to achieve better lift than treatments that only address the skin's surface. If you are interested in learning more about this treatment or developing a personalized combination treatment plan, please contact our office to schedule your consultation.
Risks and side effects of Ultherapy are minimal and most commonly include redness, swelling, bruising, soreness, tingling, or numbness. These mild side effects can last a few hours up to several days.
Ultherapy is a safe and effective treatment option for patients of all skin types and tones who would like to lift their skin and smooth wrinkles on their face, neck, area beneath the chin, or chest.
While Ultherapy delivers heat and produces remodeling in deeper layers of tissue, laser treatments affect change on the skin’s surface and just below. As these related treatments produce similar results in differing layers of tissue, they are excellent complementary procedures for achieving extensive collagen remodeling in multiple layers.
