Ultherapy
SLK offers Ultherapy which is the only FDA-cleared device for non-invasive face lifting. This device contracts and tightens the muscle fascia – a basket of collagen that envelopes the muscles of the face and body. This device is essential to holding features of the face and body high and tight against the muscle and skeleton, mitigating the effects of gravity and age.
- 7+ million treatments done worldwide
- 50+ published clinical studies
How does Ultherapy work?
Ultherapy uses focused ultrasound waves to target the deep layers of the face and body. The ultrasound energy is focused in small pinpoint areas where ol collagen is heated and replaced with new collagen. An expert clinical provider must be present to read the ultrasound image and ensure the energy is delivered exactly to the collagen-rich fascia and not to the fat or bone where the energy will have no effect.
Who is a good candidate?
The best candidates are ages 28-35 for preventative “prejuvenation”, and 36-65 for reversing sagging.
Where can Ultherapy be used?
You may use Ultherapy for your face, jowls, “double chin”, abdomen, “mommy makeover”, “lip lifts”, above the knees, stretch marks, and more. Schedule a complimentary consultation here.
What are the results?
The following are examples of results patients can expect:
- Brow lift – 86% of patients experienced a significant brow lift with an average lift of 1.9mm
- Neck and submental lift – 73% of patients had >20mm improvement with an average lift of 72mm
- Chest – 83% of patients showed improvement 90 days post treatment
What other procedures work well with Ultherapy?
Although Ultherapy works well on the fascia, to achieve a comprehensive anti-aging regimen, you must target the superficial dermis and also the deeper bone structure beneath the skin. We recommend Vivace Ultra radiofrequency microneedling for dermal remodeling every 6 months, microneedling evey 6 months, and fillers like Radiesse once per year. Combination treatment will always yield the best results when it comes to a natural looking anti-aging regimen
Does Ultherapy Hurt?
For best results, 2 passes are performed over the entire face. The first pass is usually very tolerable. The second pass can feel “spicier” for some patients. We recommend patients pre-treat 30 minutes prior to their appointment with Tylenol and/or Advil (if approved by their doctor). SLK also offers Pro-Nox nitrous oxide which is an inhaled “happy gas” which reduces pain and anxiety.
How much does Ultherapy cost?
Ultherapy usually costs around $2000-$3000. Small treatments like brow lifts and non surgical lip plumps cost less, closer to $500 and up.
How often should Ultherapy be repeated?
Ultherapy should be repeated once per year for optimal anti-aging results. The soonest it can be repeated is in 6 months. Brow lifts are an exception – this treatment can involve a series of 3 sessions spaced 2-3 months apart.
