Plenty of treatments can firm the surface of your skin. A lift needs more: the change has to come from the support layer beneath your skin.

Ultherapy reaches that layer from the outside with focused ultrasound. The lift then builds over the following months as your skin makes new collagen.

How Ultherapy Works

Ultherapy is the only FDA-cleared non-invasive lifting device with real-time imaging. It lets your doctor look beneath the surface, plan where to treat, then heat tiny points there so the tissue tightens and rebuilds.

The screen shows the layers under your skin using the same kind of ultrasound as a pregnancy scan. Your doctor sees where each one sits before placing any energy.

2 Plan

Your doctor then decides which areas to treat, how many treatment lines each one needs, and which of three depths to reach:

  • 1.5 mm The upper dermis Fine lines and texture
  • 3.0 mm The deep dermis Firmness and new collagen
  • 4.5 mm The support layer The lift itself

3 Treat

The applicator focuses the ultrasound into tiny points at those depths, heating each one to around 60 to 70°C while the surface of your skin stays untouched.

Heated tissue contracts, which is why some people notice a little firmness straight away. The heat also prompts your body to make new collagen, so the layer keeps tightening over the next 2 to 3 months.

What Ultherapy Treats

Six areas, treated on their own or together in one session.

  • Jawline and jowls Early jowls blurring the line of the jaw
  • Neck Loose or crepey skin down the neck
  • Brow and forehead A heavy brow that crowds the eyes
  • Eye area Crepey skin around the eyes
  • Under the chin Loose skin under the chin
  • Décolletage Fine lines and wrinkles across the chest

Who Ultherapy Is For (and Who It Isn’t)

At your free consultation, your doctor examines your skin and tells you whether Ultherapy is right for you, or whether another treatment would serve you better.

A good fit

Mild to moderate loosening, or firm skin you want to keep firm. It suits all skin tones, because the energy doesn’t target pigment.

Not the best fit

Significant sagging with excess skin often calls for a surgical lift. Ultherapy doesn’t add volume, so if your face has lost volume, you may need dermal fillers as well or instead.

When to wait

If you have an active skin condition, wound or infection in the area, we wait until it clears. Recent injectables can affect timing too, so mention them at your consultation.

Two Generations of Ultherapy

We offer two Ultherapy systems: Ultherapy and the newer Ultherapy Prime. Both treat the same layers with the same energy, for the same expected result.

What Ultherapy Prime changes:

  • Your doctor works from a larger, sharper screen
  • Sessions run faster
  • Most people find it more comfortable

If a quicker, more comfortable session matters to you, Ultherapy Prime is the better choice.

What a Session Is Like

A session takes 30 to 45 minutes for one area, like the neck or the brow, and 60 to 90 for a full face and neck.

  1. Getting ready We remove any makeup and clean the skin, then mark out the zones to treat and apply a thin layer of ultrasound gel.
  2. Treatment Your doctor moves the applicator across each zone in slow passes, placing the energy at the depths planned for you.
  3. How it feels Each pulse is a brief point of heat that stops as quickly as it starts, stronger over bone. Tell your doctor how you’re finding it, and they can pace the treatment.
  4. Afterwards Most people go straight back to their day. Skin may look a little pink for a few hours.

Ultherapy Results Over Time

Ultherapy works gradually: the result builds over several months as new collagen forms.

  1. First 2 weeks Any early firmness or swelling settles. That isn’t the result fading; it is still forming underneath.
  2. Weeks 4 to 6 The first subtle changes often start to show.
  3. Months 2 to 3 The visible stage: most people see lift and firmness in the treated areas.
  4. Around 6 months Remodeling finishes and the result typically reaches its peak.
  5. A year on Results typically hold 12 to 18 months, then fade gradually as collagen keeps aging.

Daily sun protection helps the result last, and many people book a touch-up about once a year.

Side Effects and Safety

Merz, Ultherapy’s maker, reports more than 4 million treatments worldwide and more than 160 clinical publications. Most side effects are mild and clear on their own.

  • Redness A few hours
  • Mild swelling Up to 3 days
  • Raised lines of swelling Up to a week
  • Tenderness to the touch 2 days to 2 weeks
  • Occasional mild bruising Up to 2 weeks

Less common

Tingling, numbness or temporary muscle weakness, from inflammation of a nerve, typically settle within 2 to 6 weeks. Burns, which may leave a scar, can happen with incorrect technique. That is why your doctor performs the treatment while watching the layers on a live ultrasound screen.

Aftercare

Protect the area from strong sun and keep your skincare gentle for the first few days. Your doctor gives you aftercare instructions, and you can message our team with any question afterward.

Ultherapy vs Other Lifting Treatments

Ultherapy lifts the deep support layer under your skin: the result builds over 2 to 3 months and typically lasts 12 to 18 months. Here is how three other lifting treatments compare.

HIFU applicator on a client’s cheek

If regular top-ups suit you

HIFU uses focused ultrasound at similar depths, without the live screen your doctor watches during Ultherapy. Results typically last 6 to 12 months. From ฿15,000.

Thermage FLX tip on a client’s cheek

If firmness and texture matter more than lift

Thermage FLX uses radiofrequency on the skin’s collagen-rich layer, above the support layer Ultherapy treats, so the two combine well. Results typically last 12 to 24 months. From ฿35,000.

If you want a visible lift right away

A thread lift repositions the skin with dissolvable threads, so the lift shows right away, where Ultherapy’s builds over 2 to 3 months. Results typically last 12 to 24 months, and downtime is usually 1 to 3 days. From ฿10,000.

Our Thermage vs Ultherapy comparison goes through the two in more detail.

What Pairs Well with Ultherapy

Ultherapy lifts and firms the support layer. It doesn’t relax muscles, add volume or hydrate the skin, so these treatments are often paired with it.

  • Relaxing muscles for expression lines Anti-wrinkle injections From ฿1,600
  • Restoring volume for hollow cheeks and temples Dermal fillers From ฿15,000
  • Hydrating the skin for dull, dehydrated skin Skin boosters From ฿12,000
  • Lifting and firming for loose, sagging skin That’s what Ultherapy does From ฿10,000

At your free consultation, your doctor looks at which of these apply to you and decides whether pairing another treatment with Ultherapy makes sense, and when.

Frequently Asked Questions

Ultherapy results typically last 12 to 18 months. The lift builds over the first 2 to 3 months, and many people book a touch-up about once a year to keep it.

It can be uncomfortable in moments, most of all over bone, but most people find it manageable. You can ask your doctor to slow down or pause at any point.

One Ultherapy session is enough for most people. Give the lift 2 to 3 months to build before judging it; if the loosening is more advanced, your doctor may suggest a second session a few months later.

Age matters less than how loose the skin is. Most of our Ultherapy clients are in their mid-thirties to mid-fifties and about one in five is younger; older skin responds too, as long as the loosening is mild to moderate.

It’s very unlikely. The energy is aimed at the dermis and the support layer, not the fat layer between them, and your doctor watches the layers on the live screen to keep it at those depths. What people sometimes take for fat loss is loose skin firming up.

Skin tone doesn’t change how Ultherapy works: the energy is placed in the layers under the skin and doesn’t target pigment. That makes the pigment changes some lasers can cause unlikely, on deep and tanned skin too.
