Ultherapy is a non-invasive procedure using micro-focused ultrasound generating a thermal effect under the skin. This effect essentially jump-starts your body’s own process to create fresh, new collagen. The new collagen works to lift skin on the neck, chin, and brow—as well as smooth skin on the upper chest.
Wear loose, comfy clothes. You might be asked to wear a robe. Photos will be taken from lots of different angles. After cleansing the skin and identifying the specific areas to be treated (I decided to do neck, chin and brow), the practitioner will apply the ultrasound gel and place the smooth treatment applicator against your skin.
I’d like to think I have a high tolerance for pain. But Ultherapy is an entirely different level of pain. It stings. It burns. I actually screamed out loud. Sure, it felt tolerable on certain parts of my face. The brow area was easy-peasy. But my neck was off-the-charts painful.
No, but everyone is different. Personally, after I wiped away my tears, I looked in the mirror. No blood. Zero scabs. Nada on the bruises. I didn’t look red or swollen.
60 to 90 minutes depending on the areas you are treating.
Everyone is different, but generally, it takes about 3-5 months to see full results. Collagen production takes time ladies, so be patient.
