ULTHERA™/ ULTHERAPY™ – Breakthrough Ultrasound Treatment for Face, Brow & Neck Lift, Reduction of Double Chin & Jowls, and Decolletage Wrinkle Improvement

WHAT IS ULTHERA™ or ULTHERAPY™?
Ulthera™ or Ultherapy™ is a non-surgical face and neck treatment that uses high intensity focused ultrasound to lift and tone loose skin without any downtime. Effective and with no healing time required, this is the preferred treatment for the busy individual to achieve firmer, tighter and lifted skin.

HOW DOES ULTHERAPY™ WORK?
It delivers focused ultrasound (a form of heat energy) below the surface of the skin to stimulate the body’s natural renewal of existing collagen and creation of new collagen. Ultherapy™ targets the deep tissues – the same tissues that are addressed in a surgical facelift – without cutting or disrupting the surface of the skin. This results in a toning and visible lifting of the skin over time.

HOW LONG IS THE ULTHERA™ TREATMENT SESSION?
A full face and neck treatment takes about an hour. When taking pain medication, expect to do this about an hour before treatment begins.

IS ULTHERAPY™ PAINFUL?
Although pain thresholds vary with each individual, expect to feel tolerable discomfort (akin to an electrical tingling) while the energy is being delivered. This is temporary and can be well-managed with topical anaesthesia. We also administer cream anesthetic as well as a potent pain reliever if necessary for the patient’s utmost treatment comfort.

WHAT ARE THE SIDE EFFECTS? WHAT CAN I EXPECT AFTER THE ULTHERA™ TREATMENT?
After an Ultherapy™ treatment, there is rarely any visible effect beyond mild to moderate redness, which usually fades within an hour after treatment. Since there is no wound or injury to the skin, makeup can be applied straight away. Patients can immediately resume their regular daily activities. No specific care is needed after treatment, although you may be asked to avoid sun and some skin products for a period of time after the treatment.

Ulthera™ treatments are simple and straightforward. Expect lifting and toning over the next 2-3 months, as old collagen is renewed and replaced with new and stronger collagen. As this collagen-building process continues, further improvements can appear up to 6 months following a single treatment. Results will last for up to a minimum of 2 years. This article sums up the process and the real results of an Ultherapy™ treatment – http://www.today.com/style/ultherapy-review-cost-mini-lift-without-surgery-non-invasive-I523243 .

HOW MANY TREATMENTS DO I NEED?
Most individuals only need 1 treatment; however, some may benefit from more than one treatment (depending on the degree of skin laxity they have).

GENEO™ FACIAL: Advanced Super Facial with Patented OxyGeneo™ and TriPollar technologies – Unparalleled skin nourishment & oxygenation, revealing brighter & youthful skin after just one treatment

– Super Facial Therapy. Better Results.
What makes geneO+ the new super-facial? Get the exfoliation benefits of microdermabrasion plus deep facial rejuvenation with the infusion of essential revitalizing nutrients and healing skin through oxygenation from within. TriPollar technology incorporated in the platform painlessly delivers focused and optimal radio-frequency (RF) energy to the skin surface and to subcutaneous fat layers. This TriPollar technology helps reduce wrinkles, firms and contours the skin. GeneO+ treatments are suitable for all skin types – any skin color, sensitive skin, and even for those who are prone to keloids and couldn’t otherwise undergo abrasion treatments.

– Exfoliate. Infuse. Oxygenate.
Breakthrough OxyGeneo™ Technology provides superior anti-aging and skin brightening results by treating the skin at a deeper level. Exfoliate, Infuse, and Oxygenate your way to brighter and youthful skin.
HOW IT WORKS:
> Exfoliation – Similar to microdermabrasion, the geneO + exfoliates the upper skin layer to remove dead cells, smooth and renew the skin, preparing it to receive active nutrients. The geneO+ is safe on all skin tones and can treat sensitive skin without any irritation.
> Infusion – Through the patented Capsugen, the geneO+ cleanses the skin while infusing nutrient-rich active ingredients. You choose between the NeoRevive™ for rejuvenation and anti-aging or NeoBright™ for skin brightening and texture improvement.
> Oxygenation – The geneO+ produces CO2 bubbles which gently burst on the skin surface creating a physiological response, sending oxygen-rich blood to the area, increasing capillary flow and skin metabolism. Oxygenation results in optimal absorption of active ingredients.

– TriPollar Technology – Breakthrough 3rd Generation RF for Better Results
TriPollar Radio Frequency (RF) technology is an innovative, proprietary 3rd generation RF technology. TriPollar overcomes the limitations of previous mono-polar and bi-polar technologies. Simple to use and extremely efficient, TriPollar treatments deliver immediate visible body and facial contouring effects from the first treatment – and long-lasting results without surgery or downtime. TriPollar treatments effectively reduce appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, firm and rejuvenate the skin, and contour the facial skin.

BOTOX® Treatment for Wrinkles

Botox® is a toxin produced by a bacteria called Clostridium botulinum. It originally was used to restore a normal voice for people with a vocal chord condition called spasmodic dysphonia. It has also been used to treat uncontrollable eye twitches and embarrassing sweating of the palms and underarms. In the mid 1990’s, plastic surgeons began using Botox injections to treat facial wrinkles.

Botox® will dramatically improve (and often vanish) horizontal forehead creases, scowl lines between your eyebrows, crow’s feet, and vertical wrinkles of your upper lip.

HOW DOES BOTOX WORK?
Dynamic wrinkles, such as crow’s feet, frown lines, and forehead wrinkles, are due to repetitive facial expression. Weakening the muscles responsible for these facial expressions can dramatically improve these wrinkles. With Botox®, these muscles can be weakened without detracting from your facial expressiveness.

WHAT WILL HAPPEN DURING THE PROCEDURE?
As Botox® is being injected, you may experience brief mild discomfort. Following injection, recovery is immediate; you may place make-up and return to work immediately. A few experience mild bruising which improves within a few days.

HOW SOON WILL I SEE RESULTS? HOW LONG WILL THE EFFECTS LAST?
Following the injections, it will take several days before you notice any change in your expression lines. The maximum effect is seen at 2 to 4 weeks. The results should last for 4-6 months. As the Botox® effects wear off, you will begin to notice increased muscle action and some reformation of wrinkles. Reinjections will be needed to maintain your results.

WHAT ARE THE RISKS WITH THIS TREATMENT?
The anticipated risk and discomforts of this treatment are minimal. You may experience temporary redness, bruising, or stinging around the injection sites. In rare cases, you could have a slight lid droop for several days or weeks after the injection. All the reported side effects of the medication have proven to be temporary. Very little of the botulinum toxin is absorbed into the bloodstream. No systemic adverse side effects have been reported from local injection of botulinum toxin at the doses used for facial wrinkles.
