Can Ultherapy Treat Small Areas?

January 16, 2020 by Dr. Vitenas

Ultherapy is an FDA-approved treatment designed to naturally stimulate the body into rejuvenating the face, reducing lines and wrinkles in the skin.

Wanting a more youthful look is understandable as you age. Who wouldn’t want to keep their natural beauty for a few more years? This common wish has led to a recent boom in cosmetic procedures aimed at reversing signs of aging, meaning that there are now more effective, non-invasive treatments available than ever before.

Most cosmetic rejuvenation procedures focus on eliminating wrinkles and sagging skin, as these tend to be the most visible signs of aging. But thanks to recent advances in technology, there are multiple different ways to treat aging skin, thanks to recent advances in technology. From fillers to surgical facelifts, patients have a range of options to best suit their needs.

However, as time has progressed, we have discovered even more ways to get the smooth, firm skin we want without the complications and cost of surgery. Ultherapy is an FDA-approved treatment designed to naturally stimulate the body into rejuvenating the face, reducing lines and wrinkles in the skin.

What is Ultherapy?

Ultherapy, or Ulthera, is similar to a facelift in that it aims to lift and tighten the skin on the face, neck, and chest area of the body in order to create a more youthful appearance. However, the procedure used to accomplish this is very different. Instead of using fillers or requiring surgery, Ulthera uses ultrasound technology to stimulate several layers of facial tissues.

The treatment stimulates collagen production, which in turn encourages the body to naturally restore the tightness of the skin. It requires no anesthesia and no downtime, making it an easy procedure that will not cost patients time off of work. Most procedures take between 30 to 60 minutes.

Depending on the condition of the skin and the amount of sagging, it can take more than one treatment to see the desired results. In order to extend these results after the procedure, touchup treatments are recommended. The effects of the procedure last for as long as the body continues to produce collagen, typically for at least six months.

The process is not particularly painful, and most patients report only experiencing short bursts of heat and/or tingling sensations in the areas being treated. If desired, patients can take over-the-counter pain medication before the treatment to alleviate any discomfort. After the procedure, patients may experience minor redness, tenderness, or bruising, but it typically only lasts two to three days following treatment.

Can Ultherapy Be Used On Specific Areas?

Ulthera is used as a general skin tightening procedure to improve the overall look of the face, neck, and chest. However, it can also be used to target specific areas that the patient wishes to improve. Eyebrows, under the chin, and the décolletage area can be treated, instead of treating the whole face. When consulting with your specialist, they can mark out the areas for correction due to the precision of the ultrasound waves.

When going in for an Ulthera treatment, the aesthetician will determine the treatment area according to the patient’s goals. The handpiece used in the procedure is small, allowing them to cover only the areas that need to be corrected. Because the ultrasound pulses are short and quick, they only reach the specific area being targeted by the treatment.

When you treat a smaller area, it also helps to save on the costs of the procedure. Depending on your needs, the price usually ranges from $2,500 to $5,500. These prices usually include a full face and neck treatment.

However, when you focus on a more specific area, the price drops dramatically. These smaller treatments, like a focused procedure on the brows, cost around $750-$1000. This is considerably cheaper than a full face treatment and allows the patient to pick a specific area that they want to see improved.
