What Is Ultherapy?
Ultherapy® is the only non-invasive, no-downtime skin tightening treatment approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA). No surgical incisions are made as the treatment only uses micro-focused ultrasound energy to stimulate the growth of fresh, new collagen. The result is a tightening and gradual lifting of the skin back to its youthful position.
How does Ultherapy work?
The Ulthera device allows doctors to target the superficial muscular aponeurotic system (SMAS) layer, which is the layer of skin that is responsible for collagen production. Before Ultherapy, this layer is only accessible during an invasive surgical facelift.
Ultherapy now allows doctor to target this same SMAS layer without making any surgical cuts.
The device also has a built-in real-time visualisation feature that allows doctors to see the layer of skin they are treating while avoiding other structures like bones and blood vessels. This allows them to deliver the micro-focused ultrasound energy with pin-point accuracy to target both the dermis (upper layer of the skin) and the SMAS layer where skin laxity begins. The micro-focused ultrasound energy then triggers a heavy-lifting of the skin from within. Since no surgical incisions are required, there is no downtime and patients can go back to their daily routine immediately. As we are ageing all the time, it is recommended that patients do an Ultherapy treatment once a year as part of their anti-ageing regime. For maintenance and more dramatic results, patients can combine Ultherapy with dermal fillers and regular rejuvenation treatment facials or lasers.Why Ultherapy?

Who it is suitable for?
Ultherapy is for anyone who is looking for a skin tightening treatment to reverse ageing. It can be used on both men and women even in their 20s to maintain firmness in the face as well as provide spot treatment in areas like the cheeks, jawline, or other areas that show early signs of age.
For more mature patients, Ultherapy is effective for lifting and contouring sagging areas due to ageing. Other than the full face, it is also suitable for spot treatment of areas such as our undereye, cheeks, jowls, eyebrows, forehead, and neck.
