How to tighten skin without surgery? Ultherapy

 


Most people long for a sculpted jawline and prominent cheekbones that present an attractive facial profile. But often times, obtaining these goals proves to be an uphill task.  As you get older, your plump and firm skin begins losing its elasticity and volume. Ageing thus usually presents itself in the form of sagging skin, wrinkles and fine lines. If you're in the early stages of ageing, these changes can impact your confidence greatly.

Undergoing a surgical procedure is to address these issue can certainly be daunting. But worry no more. This doesn’t have to be your only option. Ultherapy is a non-invasive procedure which aims to define the contours of your face and neck, and comes with the convenience of zero downtime.

How does Ultherapy in Dubai work?

This cosmetic technique uses ultrasound waves to penetrate several layers of the skin to lift the tissue. Ultherapy offers superficial, medium, and deep penetration to address different types of skin-related concerns:

·         Increasing skin laxity  

·         Moderate wrinkles and fine lines

·         Sagging eyebrows

·         Double chin

·         Visible jowls

The Ultherapy device is formulated to generate heat upon contact with the skin’s layers. When this heat is emitted, it kickstarts the production of collagen and elastin proteins. These structural proteins play a key role in ensuring that our skin maintains its tightness and suppleness.

Who can get Ultherapy?

This treatment is highly effective for people of all ages and skin types. Typically, it is advised to get Ultherapy if you are over the age of 21. Individuals looking to pursue this treatment must also avoid facial waxing, or any similar aesthetic procedures right before and after the treatment.

Ultherapy will deliver great aesthetic benefits if you are experiencing mild to severe skin laxity. Multiple primary concerns such as fine lines, wrinkles, creases can be treated by Ultherapy procedure. However, this procedure is not recommended for women who are pregnant or breastfeeding their babies. You must also maintain realistic expectations and goals before opting for Ultherapy. A detailed consultation with a Board Certified Practitioner can help determine if this procedure is right for you.

Expected Benefits

There are many benefits you can expect following Ultherapy. Some of these include:

·         Dramatic results with minimal downtime

·         Adding definition to your facial contours

·         Rejuvenating the skin and restoring its glow

·         Addressing wrinkles, fine lines, and creasing

·         Minimally invasive procedure with profound results

Procedure

Ultherapy is typically performed in an outpatient setting. The procedure takes around 90 minutes if the patient intends to address skin concerns on the face and neck. Your Practitioner will begin by cleansing the face to remove any oil or residue buildup. The patient may also be requested to remove any jewelry that can interrupt the Ultherapy device.

The Practitioner then places the Ultherapy device onto the patient’s face. Ultrasound technology is used to adjust the intensity of the waves – this is done considering the patient’s skin type and aesthetic goals.

The device then delivers ultrasound energy to regions of the face and neck at different depths and frequencies. Once this procedure is complete, the device is removed from the patient’s face.

Recovery

Ultherapy comes with the benefit of no downtime. Patients are free to resume their daily activities as soon as the procedure is complete. The Practitioner may offer some aftercare instructions to maintain results. These will include avoiding sun exposure and applying sunscreen. You will notice the outcomes of this treatment within a few days as collagen levels increase. Some patients may require additional treatments to see their desired results.
