Ultherapy in Buffalo, NY

What is Ultherapy?

Are you having skin-related issues such as sagging and fine lines? Ultherapy is a non-surgical treatment which treats signs of facial aging by inducing your body!s own collagen production. Ultherapy works by using concentrated waves of ultrasound energy which heat tissue deep within your skin and muscle to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

How much does Ultherapy Cost?

Every patient has unique needs, and your cost will vary accordingly and will be discussed during your consultation. We accept all forms of payment, including credit cards and checks, and also offer convenient financing options.

Why choose Ultherapy?

If you are looking to treat signs of facial aging but are not interested in the invasiveness or downtime associated with surgical interventions such as a facelift or necklift, Ultherapy may be a good option for you.

What is the procedure for Ultherapy?

Ultherapy is a convenient, non-invasive treatment for facial aging. The procedure typically lasts from 30 to 90 minutes depending on your treatment plan. Your face will be cleaned and your provider will apply ultrasound gel to the desired treatment areas. Your provider will then use ultrasound technology to deliver waves of ultrasound energy to your skin. You may experience some tingling sensations or pain during your procedure. Ultherapy is commonly used to treat skin on your face, neck, or chest. During a consultation, your provider will discuss which areas you could target during your treatment.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can Ultherapy replace a facelift?

While ultrasound technology is able to provide your skin with a more youthful appearance via the stimulation of collagen production, it will not have the same effects as a facelift. A facelift is an invasive surgical procedure that removes excess facial skin and tightens the underlying structures and, unlike Ultherapy, has an extensive recovery. Ultherapy is a great option for people who do not want to undergo surgery or are not yet at a point where they need a facelift.

Are there any side effects?

Some patients may experience slight redness, swelling, tenderness, or tingling sensations. These are usually mild and temporary side effects.

Do I need to take any time off of work?

There is no downtime associated with Ultherapy and you can return to your normal activities after your treatment.

How long do the results last?

Because the results of your Ultherapy treatment will depend on your collagen production in the months following the procedure, the length of your results will depend on your natural aging process. Your results will begin to appear over two to three months and can last up to a year or longer.

What does Ultherapy treatment feel like?

As ultrasound energy is delivered to your skin, you may feel the energy being deposited deep in your skin. You may experience some tingling sensations or pain during your procedure. Self-administered PRO-NOX is an option to keep you comfortable during your procedure.
