Does Ultherapy hurt – Is Ultherapy pain free?
Most patients don’t experience pain, especially when treated by Nurse & Medical Aesthetic expert, Chantal Ward. While some may have read this treatment requires pain medication, they quickly learn this is completely unnecessary when treated by a proficient technician. Most liken the experience to a gentle “sparkling” sensation – some have even described Ultherapy to be similar to the micro-explosions of “pop rocks” candies.
How does Ultherapy Skin Tightening work?
Intense focused ultrasound penetrates deeply within the facial tissues producing energy and heat at a precise depth. Ultherapy™ enables the sound waves to be directed not only into the skin but deep under the skin to the same tissues that are addressed during a surgical face lift. Gentle heat to the tissue lifts and tightens loose skin without cutting or disrupting the surface of the skin. Besides the visible effects of lifting and tightening, there is also an invisible result from Ultherapy™ with the creation of new collagen, which helps the skin maintain its youthfulness.
Ultherapy™ for treating face & neck.
Ultherapy™ can be used anywhere on the face and neck. A full facial treatment is most effective.
However, treatments can be focused on targeting lift to the brow, tightening the neck or smooth the jawline/chin areas.
Results are noticeable by others as Ultherapy™ will lift the brow, in turn reducing the excess skin on the lids. Eyes open up giving a more refreshed appearance. Neck and Jawline are tightened, naturally restoring definition and restoring one’s appearance of years past.
