FAQs
What is the difference between Ultherapy and a facelift?
A facelift is a surgical procedure. Ultherapy, on the other hand, is a TGA-registered non-invasive procedure to lift skin on the neck, under the chin and on the brow. Specifically, it
- · Lifts and tightens the skin non-invasively
- · Stimulates the production of new collagen
- · Reveals noticeable results with no downtime
While Ultherapy does not duplicate the effects of cosmetic surgery, it is an alternative for patients not ready for surgery or for those who want to continue building new collagen after a surgical lift.
Am I suitable for Ultherapy treatment?
The ideal candidate for a face and neck treatment has mild to moderate skin laxity. Individual results will also vary based on:
- · Skin laxity (excess or loose skin)
- · Volume (amount and distribution of fat)
- · Quality (wrinkles or sun damage)
- · Age, health and lifestyle
What can I expect following an Ultherapy Treatment?
Ultherapy works by repairing and strengthening tissue from the inside out – a process that takes place gradually over time with the creation of new collagen. While individual responses will vary, the following experiences have been reported by patients.
1 week after treatment
· Minor swelling
· Slight tenderness to the touch
· Tingling
· Occasional minor bruising
3 months after treatment · Improvement in the appearance of lines and wrinkles
· Smoother texture
· More even skin tone
6 months after treatment
· Continued improvement in the appearance of lines and
wrinkles · Smoother texture
· More even skin tone
· Periodic touch-up treatments may help to offset the skin’s natural ageing process, as well as continued side-sleeping and sun exposure.
