Ultherapy is becoming an increasingly popular aesthetic procedure for men and women looking to combat wrinkles and sagging skin caused by long-term sun exposure, smoking, or aging. It offers effective, fast, natural-looking results, and is the only non-invasive procedure approved by the FDA for lifting skin on the neck, chin, and brow.
Ultherapy involves the use of a machine that applies ultrasound energy to warm the skin tissue. The heat generated stimulates collagen development, helping the skin look more supple and youthful. According to many patients who have undergone the procedure, it has helped them look and feel five to 10 years younger.
So how do you know if you are a good candidate for Ultherapy? The treatment, experts say, is great for those with mild to moderate facial wrinkles and neck laxity, such as a lowered brow line or sagging eyelids, as well as loose skin under the neck or chin. Treatment areas that respond well to Ultherapy can vary from patient to patient. For example, some have reported high success in minimizing the appearance of wrinkles around the eye area, but only moderate results around the neck, and vice-verse.
While Ultherapy treatment is non-invasive and very safe, it is not recommended to patients with pacemakers, as well as those with a history of cold sores and cheek or chin implants. Additionally, doctors advise that Ultherapy on the neck, chin, or brow can worsen any pre-existing skin disease.
