Yes, the fat cells eliminated during the treatment are gone for good. However, it is important to maintain a healthy lifestyle and a stable weight to prevent the remaining fat cells in your body from enlarging.
Initial changes may be visible as early as three weeks after treatment as your body begins to process the eliminated fat cells. The most dramatic improvements typically appear after two to three months, with continued refinement occurring for up to six months.
Most patients achieve excellent results with one to two treatments per area, spaced six to eight weeks apart. Your provider will customize a treatment plan during your consultation based on your initial fat thickness and aesthetic goals.
Most patients describe the initial sensation as intense cold and tugging, but the area typically becomes numb within 5 to 10 minutes. Once the area is numb, the procedure is quite comfortable, allowing you to read or relax during the session.
Ultherapy® has been used safely in over two million treatments worldwide and is FDA-cleared for lifting and tightening. The use of ultrasound technology has a proven track record in the medical field for over 50 years, making it a reliable and safe choice for aesthetic rejuvenation.
Yes, you can apply makeup immediately following your appointment. Since Ultherapy® does not damage the surface of the skin, there are no restrictions on your regular skincare or makeup routine after you leave the spa.
You may notice some immediate contraction of the skin, but the real transformation happens as new collagen forms. Significant improvements in skin firmness and lifting are typically visible at three months, with results continuing to improve for up to six months.
Lasers generally use light energy to treat the surface of the skin for texture and pigment issues. Ultherapy® uses ultrasound energy to bypass the surface and treat the deep foundational layers of the skin, providing a significant lift that lasers simply cannot achieve.
While sensations vary by individual, most clients describe a feeling of temporary warmth or a light prickly sensation. This is the energy reaching the deep tissue where it is most effective. We can provide topical numbing agents and adjust settings to ensure your treatment is as comfortable as possible.
Results typically last between 12 to 18 months, though many clients notice the benefits for up to two years. Because the treatment stimulates your own natural collagen, the longevity of your results depends on your individual aging process. Many clients schedule annual maintenance to keep their skin looking firm and lifted.
