Q
On what principle does Ultherapy work?
A
Ultherapy is a treatment that delivers High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) energy down to the SMAS layer, a deep layer of the skin, to induce elasticity improvement and lifting.
While minimizing damage to the skin surface, it concentrates ultrasound energy at the required depth and, through thermal energy, induces collagen regeneration to help improve sagging skin and facial contour.
In addition, the treatment is performed while checking the skin layers using real-time ultrasound imaging equipment, enabling a more precise lifting design.
Q
Can I return to daily life right after the treatment?
A
Ultherapy is a relatively low-downtime treatment, allowing you to wash your face and resume light daily activities right after the procedure.
However, depending on the individual, temporary redness, swelling, tenderness, or a warm sensation may occur, most of which naturally subside over time.
Q
When do the results begin to show?
A
Some people notice skin tightening or a change in elasticity right after the procedure, and as the collagen regeneration process continues, gradual lifting and improved elasticity can be expected over approximately 1 to 3 months.
Results and how long they last may vary depending on individual skin condition and lifestyle.
