ULTHERAPY: WHAT IS IT AND WHAT CAN IT DO?
Lasers | Chelsea Clinic

Ultherapy is a non-invasive, FDA-approved procedure that works on the face, neck, and décolletage (upper chest) area. Through ultrasound technology, wrinkles on the neck, chin, brow, and upper chest are tightened and smoothened naturally. Moreover, the results continue to improve even after in-clinic sessions, and clients frequently see continuous improvement after their packages have ended.

The Chelsea Clinic prides on being one of the clinics in Singapore that provides Ultherapy treatments. In this post, we will discuss Ultherapy in detail: what it is, how it works, and the Ultherapy before-and-after results.

How does it work?

Many are already familiar with ultrasounds: they use similar technology as the ultrasounds that are carried out for pregnant women. Ultrasound waves can penetrate deeper into the skin as compared to other non-invasive treatments. It also stimulates the production of your body’s collagen, which is an important structural component of your skin, keeping it elastic and plump.

For Ultherapy, a specific subset of ultrasound called micro-focused ultrasound is used, which then generates thermal effects in dermal layers, thus promoting the development of new collagen in your cells.

Unlike other procedures, Ultherapy allows our doctors the opportunity to visualise the layers of your skin during treatment, similar to the way you can view foetuses in pregnant women. Doctors can target and direct treatment to areas that may need it the most, as opposed to applying a general treatment over a specific area. This targeted stimulation has drawn much attention from Ultherapy reviews, with many clients (ours and otherwise) praising this aspect of Ultherapy.

Ultherapy is frequently recommended as a non-invasive option for surgical facelifts and is the only non-invasive procedure to be FDA-approved for skin lift treatments. It has been shown to provide results in a single session, and unlike surgeries, has no downtime: our clients simply walk out of the clinic as if they’ve just had a facial.

When can I see the results of Ultherapy?

It depends on each client: some patients see immediate improvement, and others see gradual improvement 2-3 months after the treatment. Your skin will then continue to improve over 3 – 6 months, and the effects may last for up to a year afterwards.

As this method depends on the development of new proteins by your own cells, a constant stimulus is needed to activate collagen production.

Before/after Ultherapy sessions

There are no significant and generalised side effects of Ultherapy, and no special preparation is needed by the client. You may resume your normal, day-to-day activities after sessions without any restrictions.

Of course, individuals may have varying responses to treatment: some may experience mild redness, swelling or tenderness. These are temporary and will resolve themselves within a few hours or days.

What will it look like before and after?

As you can see below, the effects of Ultherapy are clear and natural. Unlike surgical facelifts, which leave scars, Ultherapy allows a beautiful contour without the invasiveness.
