& Technology
Ulthera® and Ulthera® Express use focused ultrasound technology to tighten skin tissue. This non-invasive technology provides a natural tightening effect with particularly effective results for the contour of the face, eyebrows, neck and décolleté.
During the treatment, ultrasound is delivered through a tip and concentrated at different subcutaneous depths. Thousands of tiny attachment points are generated in the structure that supports the face, e.g. under the epidermis, dermis and hypodermis. Tissue regeneration is thus provoked and gradually restores the memory of the skin and underlying tissues. The upper layer of the skin remains intact and the smoothing effect is gradual and natural. Apart from brief localized redness, occasional swelling and temporary sensitivity on the treated area, no downtime is necessary.
The Ulthera® procedure has been approved around the world, even by plastic surgeons who acknowledge its effectiveness. Ulthera® has been recognized several times by New Beauty Magazine as the best non-invasive treatment for skin tightening.
Ulthera®
Reaching subcutaneous depths of 1.5 mm, 3 mm or 4.5 mm, Ulthera® can act at the same depths that are usually targeted during a surgical facelift. The entire face – or targeted areas of the face, e.g. forehead, eyebrows and around the mouth – the neck and décolleté are thus smoothed and firmed. This treatment is ideal for people who want a progressive, visible and natural tightening effect.
Ulthera® Express
Treating the skin’s superficial layer, this treatment acts at a depth of 1.5 mm under the skin.
Ulthera® Express is designed for people who notice a slight slackening of the skin or those who wish to maintain the benefits of regular Ulthera® skincare. It is also for those aged 30-45 years who wish to maintain their firmness.
Specifically targeting the lower face, jawline and neck, the Ulthera® Express treatment takes a short time: from 60 to 90 minutes depending on the areas treated.

Treatment Areas
Ultherapy is carried out mostly over the entire face, on eyebrows, neck and chest areas. These areas are most often affected by loss of tone and respond well to ultrasound therapy. Depending on your needs, it is also possible to treat the entire face or just a targeted area of the face; the jawline can be targeted to redefine facial contours, while the eye area can be targeted to lift eyebrows, smooth fine lines and “open-up” the eyes.
Ulthera® is normally used in combination with dermal fillers to create a more visible rejuvenating effect. Ultherapy is used to treat sagging skin, while hyaluronic acid injections are used to treat facial hollows.

Personalized Assessment
Identifying one’s level of skin laxity is an essential step in treatments like Ulthera®. Its purpose is to determine skin needs and prioritize corrective over preventive measures, as well as to establish your expectations. The current state and age of the skin will affect how it reacts to ultrasound. An individual evaluation will help determine a final diagnosis. We are completely transparent in our approach and only recommend candidates who can truly benefit from this procedure.
Mark the Area
After cleansing the skin, the technician uses a specially adapted pencil and ruler to trace a temporary grid over the treatment area. This grid is used as a guide throughout the procedure.
Apply Ultrasound Gel
As with all ultrasound devices, a thin layer of ultrasound gel must be applied onto the skin and maintained throughout the procedure to ensure adequate contact. This allows ultrasound waves to penetrate the skin for accurate viewing.
Echographic Examination
Patented Ulthera® DeepSEE technology facilitates the viewing of skin tissue to a depth of 8 mm. A handpiece featuring an ultrasound imaging module is positioned on the skin so the technician can accurately view the subcutaneous layers of the skin for a treatment that is both safe and effective. This echographic examination assesses the depth at which the ultrasound can be performed and highlights problem areas to help the technician avoid the forehead’s frontal bone, manoeuver easily around facial nerves, and treat cheeks close to the bone at a depth of 4.5 mm.
Start the Procedure
The procedure typically lasts between 30 and 90 minutes—the time needed to produce the energy bursts that stimulate production of new collagen. Guided by the traced-on grid and ultrasound imaging, the technician adapts the treatment to your physiognomy, sometimes focusing on crow’s feet, neck lines, or “jowls”. The intense heat and snapping sensation can make the procedure uncomfortable for some. Patients are advised to take Tylenol or Advil before the procedure.
