At what age can a CA patient receive Ulthera treatment?
As we age, we begin to show signs of skin laxity. The skin may begin to sag on the face, resulting in the formation of fine lines and wrinkles. It can have a negative effect on the appearance, making an individual look tired and not as young and vibrant as they once were. However, most patients do not feel that the condition is far enough progressed to require plastic surgery treatment such as a face-lift. The idea of a drastic, invasive procedure with weeks of downtime does not fit into everyone’s schedule and may not always be necessary. Instead, many patients enjoy the benefits of Ulthera in CA to help ease the developing signs of aging.
Ulthera is available at The Skin and Laser Treatment Institute in CA to provide patients with a “lunchtime lift.” In less than an hour, most patients can enjoy the Ulthera treatment and get on with their regular activities. This revolutionary technology uses ultrasound energy to target the deeper layers of the skin to tighten with the stimulation of collagen production. Collagen is lost from the skin gradually after the age of 30 and continues to result in a less youthful appearance. However, when production is stimulated, it can firm the skin while tightening and toning troublesome areas.
Patients who are interested in Ulthera treatment may ask Dr. Christine Lee if they are a good candidate. Many ask if they are too young to receive treatment. The best candidate for Ulthera are men and women who are around the age of 35 years, or older, and are experiencing the early signs of skin laxity. Many of these patients are not experiencing severe lines and wrinkles from skin laxity and therefore may not be the best candidates for more aggressive treatments such as plastic surgery.
Dr. Christine Lee of The Skin and Laser Treatment Institute in CA sees many patients in her practice who want to improve the appearance of their skin. Using state-of-the-art therapies such as Ulthera, patients can achieve what was once before unobtainable. People in the East Bay area are encouraged to contact her practice for a consultation visit to learn about Ulthera and many other services provided at her facility.
