SMAS-lifting on the Ulthera System device
Ulthera System uses focused ultrasound with tissue imaging to plan and deliver treatment. A clinician assesses whether this approach is suitable for your concerns.
The procedure does not replace a surgical facelift. Results, sensations and recovery vary. Before treatment, your clinician discusses contraindications, possible side effects and alternatives.
Ultrasound imaging helps the clinician assess tissues and plan treatment. Areas and settings are chosen individually. The procedure does not involve surgical incisions, but it has contraindications and possible side effects.
Changes develop gradually and differ between patients. The degree and duration of improvement depend on the initial tissue condition and individual response. An immediate result, a specific duration of effect or a pain-free procedure cannot be guaranteed.
Your clinician will explain possible reactions, including discomfort, redness and swelling, as well as other risks and aftercare.
