Many of our patients seek solutions to reduce or delay the signs of aging. This is precisely where FDA approved Ulthera (Ultherapy Prime) steps in as a cutting-edge non-surgical skin rejuvenation technology. But what exactly are these two innovative methods, and what benefits do they offer?
What is Ulthera?
Ulthera is an aesthetic treatment that uses focused ultrasound technology to target the connective tissues beneath the skin with sound waves. This method provides skin tightening and lifting without the need for surgical intervention, making it a popular choice for those who want a natural, refreshed appearance.
The key distinction of Ulthera lies in its ability to deliver ultrasound energy precisely to the deeper layers of the skin. This energy stimulates the connective tissues, triggering the skin’s natural collagen production. Over time, this increased collagen helps the skin appear tighter, smoother, healthier, and more youthful.
Ultherapy Prime: A New Step in Technology
Ultherapy Prime is an advanced version of Ulthera technology, designed to address the needs of more delicate areas requiring skin tightening and lifting. Compared to the traditional Ulthera method, Ultherapy Prime offers more refined settings, enabling effective treatment of delicate areas such as the eye contour and above the lips.
This innovative technology not only maximizes comfort during the treatment but also delivers visible results in a shorter timeframe. Another significant advantage of Ultherapy Prime is its personalized treatment options, providing tailored solutions to meet the unique needs of each individual’s skin.
How is Ultherapy Prime (Ulthera) Performed?
Ultherapy is meticulously planned and performed by a qualified professional. Before the procedure, the applicator is placed on the skin, and ultrasound imaging technology is used to examine the skin and underlying tissues in detail. This allows the specialist to map out the treatment areas and create a customized plan.
During the procedure, the same applicator delivers ultrasound energy focused on the tissues at depths of 3 mm and 4.5 mm below the skin. This energy creates thermal micro-damage points, activating the skin’s natural healing process and stimulating collagen production. One of the major advantages of this procedure is that it targets deep tissues without damaging the skin’s surface. Additionally, the subcutaneous tissues are monitored in real-time on a screen, ensuring the treatment is carried out with precision and control.
