Benefits of Ultherapy
Many patients associate the signs of aging with fine lines and wrinkles,
but this isn’t the only effect it can have on the face. After the age
of 30, men and women tend to lose their natural collagen, which is what
provides volume and youthfulness. Because of collagen loss, the skin may
become loose and sagging. To remedy this, Dr. Christine Lee of The Skin
and Laser Treatment Institute will suggest non-invasive procedures such
as Ultherapy.
Ultherapy uses ultrasound energy to stimulate the collagen
building process in the skin while tightening and lifting loose skin
around the face, specifically in areas such as the neck, chin, and
around the eyes and eyebrows. Dr. Christine Lee has used this treatment
on many patients to provide them with an alternative to plastic surgery.
Ultherapy is safe, FDA-cleared, and effective at stimulating
the structural support lays of the skin to tighten them and stimulate
collagen without affecting the upper layers and surface of the skin.
This makes it a revolutionary option for patients who are uneasy about
the idea of undergoing an extensive face lift with a plastic surgeon—and
dealing with the risks and downtime associated with these procedures.
Ultherapy has many benefits to the patient. Ultherapy is:
- Affordable
- Fast
- Safe
- Effective
- Long-lasting
- Non-surgical
Ultherapy is a way for patients to achieve gradual, natural
looking results over the course of several months. While this procedure
is not a replacement for surgery, it is a wonderful alternative for
patients who have mild to moderate signs of aging and are looking for a
way of treating it without the need for surgery. It is often much more
affordable and can be a more proactive approach for patients who are
worried about developing fine lines, wrinkles, and sagging skin after
the age of 30.
