General
Ultherapy PRIME is FDA-cleared to lift and tighten skin on the brow, under the chin, and on the neck, while also improving lines and wrinkles on the décolleté. The treatment uses focused ultrasound energy to stimulate collagen deep beneath the skin’s surface, helping restore firmness and support to areas affected by aging. Over time, this process creates a natural lifting and tightening effect without surgery.
Most patients benefit from a single treatment session, although some individuals may choose to repeat the procedure depending on their skin condition, age, and aesthetic goals. During your consultation, your provider will evaluate your skin laxity and create a customized treatment plan to achieve the best possible results.
Some patients notice a subtle tightening shortly after treatment, but the most noticeable improvements develop gradually over the next two to three months as the body produces new collagen. Because Ultherapy works with the body’s natural regenerative process, results continue improving over several months.
Ultherapy is a non-invasive procedure that requires little to no downtime. Most patients return to their normal activities immediately after treatment. Some people may experience temporary redness, mild swelling, or tenderness in the treated area, which typically resolves within a few hours to a few days.
Ultherapy PRIME is FDA-cleared to improve the appearance of skin laxity on the abdomen and both the front and back of the upper arms. These areas commonly experience loose or thinning skin due to aging, weight loss, or pregnancy. The treatment helps strengthen and tighten the skin by stimulating collagen production beneath the surface.
Ultherapy PRIME delivers focused ultrasound energy to the deeper structural layers of the skin. This energy creates controlled thermal points that stimulate the body to produce new collagen and elastin. As the collagen rebuilds over time, the skin gradually becomes firmer, tighter, and more youthful in appearance.
Ideal candidates are individuals with mild to moderate skin laxity who want to improve skin firmness without surgery. Patients who have experienced skin changes after weight loss, pregnancy, or aging often benefit from this treatment. A consultation with a qualified provider will determine if Ultherapy PRIME is the right option for your goals.
Yes. Ultherapy PRIME can often be combined with other aesthetic treatments to enhance overall results. Because Ultherapy works by stimulating collagen deep beneath the skin, it pairs well with treatments that address other layers of the skin or different cosmetic concerns. For example, wrinkle relaxers such as Botox or Dysport can help soften expression lines, dermal fillers can restore lost volume, and treatments like microneedling or laser resurfacing can improve skin texture and tone.
For body treatments, Ultherapy PRIME may be combined with collagen-stimulating injectables, skin resurfacing procedures, or other skin tightening technologies depending on the treatment area and your goals.
