HOO ULTRALIFT (Ultherapy)

HOO ULTRALIFT (Ultherapy) is the gold standard for non-surgical lifting and skin tightening. It is the only FDA-cleared, non-invasive procedure that lifts the neck, chin and brow, and improves lines and wrinkles on the upper chest. The device uses micro-focused ultrasound to deliver thermal coagulation points on the skin eliciting a wound healing response which results in new collagen formation and skin tissue contraction. 

Time element:
45 to 90 minutes
6 months to 12 months interval

WHO IS A GOOD CANDIDATE FOR HOO ULTRALIFT (ULTHERAPY) TREATMENT?

HOO ULTRALIFT (Ultherapy) is best for patients who are 30 years old or older with mild to moderate skin laxity, those with loose skin on the brow, under the neck, chin, lines and wrinkles on the chest, for contouring the lower part of the face, face lifting but not yet ready for surgery, or as an aesthetic maintenance option.

WHAT CAN I EXPECT DURING AND AFTER A HOO ULTRALIFT (ULTHERAPY) TREATMENT?

A numbing cream is applied 45 minutes prior to the procedure to increase patient comfort. After cleansing the skin and identifying the specific areas to be treated, an ultrasound gel is applied and the smooth treatment applicator is placed against the skin.

After the HOO ULTRALIFT (Ultherapy) treatment, The skin might appear flushed at first, but the redness should disappear within a few hours. Some patients experience slight swelling, tingling, or tenderness to the touch, but these are mild and temporary in nature.

HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE UNTIL I SEE RESULTS?

After the procedure, you will feel immediate skin tightening. However, it usually takes 3 to 6 months for full results as it takes this amount of time for collagen to regenerate.

IS THERE DOWNTIME?

None. You can return to your normal activities immediately after your HOO ULTRALIFT (Ultherapy) procedure without any post-treatment restrictions or requirements.

HOW LONG DO HOO ULTRALIFT (ULTHERAPY) RESULTS LAST?

Collagen remodeling takes time.  That’s the reason why lifting, skin tightening, and improvement of lines and wrinkles only become apparent after 2-3 months or even up to 6 months after HOO ULTRALIFT (Ultherapy). The results of the treatment vary and may last up to about a year depending on your natural aging process. It is important that you follow through with yearly touch ups to help provide more control over the aging process.
