Ultherapy\u00ae is also FDA-approved to improve the appearance of lines and wrinkles on the chest.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With no downtime, you can resume your regular activities while your body naturally produces collagen, gradually tightening loose skin with just one treatment. Most patients begin to see noticeable results after a single session.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ultherapy\u00ae vs. Facelifts<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Unlike a facelift, Ultherapy\u00ae can be used both preventatively and retrospectively to fix existing issues. It prevents skin from losing elasticity and firmness before aging. For that reason, Ultherapy\u00ae is a popular, less-invasive alternative to facelifts. Furthermore, it can also be used as a maintenance option for those who have had facelifts in the past.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How Microfocused Ultrasound Technology Works<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ultherapy\u00ae uses microfocused ultrasound technology. This method fights drooping skin that sags over time due to gravity. It works to rebuild your own collagen under the surface of your skin by dispersing focused energy that tightens and lifts. It has been safely used in the medical field for over 50 years.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a class=\"btn-primary\" href=\"https:\/\/www.advdermatology.com\/request-appointment\/\">Request a Ultherapy\u00ae Consultation<\/a><\/p>\n<p><script type=\"application\/ld+json\">\n{\n\"@context\": \"https:\/\/schema.org\",\n\"@type\": \"FAQPage\",\n\"mainEntity\": [{\n\"@type\": \"Question\",\n\"name\": \"What is Ultherapy\u00ae?\",\n\"acceptedAnswer\": {\n\"@type\": \"Answer\",\n\"text\": \"Ultherapy is a non-invasive treatment cleared by the FDA for lifting the skin on the\nneck, chin, and brow, and improving lines and wrinkles on the d\u00e9colletage. Ultherapy uses\nmicrofocused ultrasound to lift and tighten loose skin over time, without any downtime\"\n}\n},{\n\"@type\": \"Question\",\n\"name\": \"Is Ultherapy\u00ae safe?\",\n\"acceptedAnswer\": {\n\"@type\": \"Answer\",\n\"text\": \"Ultherapy is a proven treatment with a well-established safety profile. It is currently\nmarketed worldwide in more than 75 countries, with over 1.5 million treatments performed\nglobally to date. In addition, ultrasound energy has a proven track record, with use in the field of\nmedicine for more than 50 years.\"\n}\n},{\n\"@type\": \"Question\",\n\"name\": \"How does Ultherapy\u00ae differ from laser treatments?\",\n\"acceptedAnswer\": {\n\"@type\": \"Answer\",\n\"text\": \"Ultherapy uses sound energy\u2014tried-and-true ultrasound\u2014which has unique\nproperties that allow it to bypass the surface of the skin to treat depths not matched by any other\nnon-invasive cosmetic device. Ultherapy ultrasound stimulates collagen production in the skin\u2019s\nfoundation, resulting in a clinically significant lift of tissue over two to three months. Some lasers\nrely on light energy, which cannot reach deeper skin layers. Typically, laser treatments also only\ntreat superficial skin and are not FDA-cleared to lift skin.\"\n}\n},{\n\"@type\": \"Question\",\n\"name\": \"How long does it last?\",\n\"acceptedAnswer\": {\n\"@type\": \"Answer\",\n\"text\": \"Since the procedure stimulates a person\u2019s own collagen production, how long the\nresults last depends on the individual. While results appear over two to three months, they can\nlast up to a year or more. The treatment produces new collagen on the inside, but the\nindividual\u2019s natural aging process will dictate how long that translates into visible results on the\noutside. Future touch-up treatments can help provide more control over the aging process,\nwhich varies by individual.\"\n}\n},{\n\"@type\": \"Question\",\n\"name\": \"What does it feel like?\",\n\"acceptedAnswer\": {\n\"@type\": \"Answer\",\n\"text\": \"As the ultrasound energy is delivered, you may feel tiny amounts of energy being\ndeposited to precise depths, stimulating the collagen-building process. Comfort levels vary from\nperson to person, but the sensation only lasts while the ultrasound energy is being delivered.\"\n}\n},{\n\"@type\": \"Question\",\n\"name\": \"Are there any side effects?\",\n\"acceptedAnswer\": {\n\"@type\": \"Answer\",\n\"text\": \"There may be slight redness that typically resolves within a few hours following the\ntreatment. Some patients may have slight swelling, tingling, or tenderness to the touch, but\nthese are mild and temporary in nature.\nThe Ultherapy System is contraindicated for use in patients with:\nOpen wounds or lesions in the treatment area\nSevere or cystic acne in the treatment area\nActive implants (e.g., pacemakers or defibrillators), or metallic implants in the treatment area\nPlease see Ultherapy\u00ae Important Safety Information for additional information. Patient results\nmay vary.\"\n}\n},{\n\"@type\": \"Question\",\n\"name\": \"Who is a good canidate?\",\n\"acceptedAnswer\": {\n\"@type\": \"Answer\",\n\"text\": \"A good candidate for Ultherapy is someone with some degree of laxity, to the point of\nlooking, and often feeling, less firm. Loose skin under the neck and under the chin, or lines and\nwrinkles on the chest, are signals a patient might be a candidate. Typically, those in their 30s\nand older who have mild to moderate skin laxity are candidates. While Ultherapy is not a\nreplacement for a surgical facelift, there are many people who want some facial lifting but are\nnot ready for surgery, whether mentally, physically, or financially. There also are younger people\nwho want to \\\"stay ahead of the game,\\\" as well as patients wanting an aesthetic maintenance\noption.\n*15% of patients and patients with a BMI of over 30% may see a lack of results from an\nUltherapy\u00ae treatment.\"\n}\n},{\n\"@type\": \"Question\",\n\"name\": \"What is the cost of Ultherapy\u00ae?\",\n\"acceptedAnswer\": {\n\"@type\": \"Answer\",\n\"text\": \"Pricing for an Ultherapy treatment can vary, depending upon the areas being treated,\nusually around $3,500.\nTo learn more about Ultherapy, please call 847-459-6400 or contact us to make an appointment\nwith one of our cosmetic coordinators.\"\n}\n}]\n}\n<\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ultherapy\u00ae is an FDA-approved ultrasound treatment.
