Ultherapy in Redwood City

Collagen is the fortifying protein that gives youthful skin its radiance, suppleness, and hydration. In your mid-20’s, the skin’s natural supply of collagen begins to decline, paving the way for wrinkles, lines, and creases, as well as a loss of elasticity and volume. As a viable alternative to more invasive surgical techniques, ultherapy uses gentle ultrasound energy to boost your collagen reserves, restoring a firmer, more inviting complexion.

At Skin Love MedSpa, patients enjoy a wealth of cutting-edge treatment modalities paired with personalized concierge attention.

Ultherapy is just one of our many anti-aging solutions that can help rewind the clock and provide you with a more youthful, attractive complexion.

What is Ultherapy?

Ultherapy harnesses the power of gentle ultrasound energy to combat the effects of aging. By triggering the body’s innate wound-healing mechanism, Ultherapy boosts collagen production, smoothing, firming, and rejuvenating the pores from within. It is FDA-approved to provide a subtle lift for sunken facial contours and can also provide revitalization for the neck and decolletage.

During treatment, your practitioner can also use ultrasound imaging to see exactly how the energy is being distributed, ensuring uniform, even results across all layers of skin tissue.

How Does Ultherapy Work?

A loss of skin elasticity with the aging process is directly related to diminishing stores of the protein collagen. Ultherapy combats this loss by applying innovative, focused ultrasound energy to areas of depletion.

The thermal waves penetrate the pores and travel below the skin, tissue, and muscle to jumpstart collagen production at the deepest levels.

Who is a Good Candidate for Ultherapy in Redwood City?

Whether you are looking for a safe, quick way to minimize sagging skin or you desire a relaxing and rejuvenating pick-me-up, Ultherapy offers a wide range of benefits without the need for lengthy downtime. The best candidates are in their late 30s and 40s and are seeking a minimally invasive method of reducing skin laxity.

As with any cosmetic treatment, patients should be in good mental and physical health, free from any significant, uncontrolled medical concerns, and in possession of realistic expectations for their results based on a detailed consultation with our friendly and experienced practitioners.

Before & After

What happens during Ultherapy?

Once the treatment areas have been cleansed and sterilized, a cool gel is applied to the skin that allows the ultrasound device to glide smoothly across the surface. Ultrasound energy is then delivered to the deep tissue layers, triggering collagen regeneration.

What can I expect after my session?

Ultherapy in Redwood City is non-surgical and requires no incisions or anesthesia. It, therefore, comes with no downtime or recovery, and patients can return to normal activities right away. The skin may appear red for several hours after your session, but this fades quickly. Minor swelling, tenderness, or tingling may also be present temporarily.

How soon will I see results?

Most patients will see results gradually over the course of two to three months, with outcomes lasting over a year. Factors such as your natural rate of aging may affect the longevity of the newly produced collagen, so changes vary from patient to patient.
