Ultherapy
Ultherapy if a HIFU device. It lifts, sculpts and tightens skin from the inside out – without surgery and with minimal downtime. It is designed to lift the upper and lower face, under the chin, neck and on the eyebrows, as well as improve the appearance of lines and wrinkles on the décolletage.
It works by using precise micro-focused ultrasound with visualisation energy to target the deep structural layers of the skin without disrupting the skin’s surface. After treatment, the body’s tissue repair process stimulates the production of new collagen and elastin, creating a gradual lifting effect. Ultherapy doesn’t give a sudden change in appearance, instead, results develop gradually over six months.
