Ultherapy
Skin Tightening

Cosmetic Skin & Laser Center offers Ultherapy for individuals who want to achieve the results of a facelift -- without surgery or downtime. Ultherapy is a non-invasive ultrasound treatment that tightens and lifts the skin while boosting your collagen simultaneously. This non-surgical alternative to a facelift provides dramatic results.

Ultherapy works by targeting the deeper tissues of the skin for lifting, and the superficial tissue (outermost layer of the skin) for tightening. The ultrasound energy produces heat to the skin and stimulates the formation of new collagen. It’s an FDA-approved treatment for skin tightening on the face, neck and chest. Most individuals notice a lift shortly after treatment, however, the skin tightening results show three to six months after treatment.

Ultherapy is the only non-invasive procedure that targets the SMAS layer – the same layer surgeons tighten during a facelift. With an ultrasound scan, Ultherapy accurately locates the SMAS to tighten it and stimulate new collagen. Ultherapy treatments are customized to lift sagging brows, smooth lines and wrinkles on the decolletage, firm loose neck skin, and tighten sagging jawlines. Ultherapy can even tighten skin on the body.

Cosmetic Skin & Laser Center was among the first in the nation to offer Ultherapy treatments. We've performed thousands of treatments and our providers are highly trained to customize treatments for lift and skin rejuvenation.

We are known as the place to go for nonsurgical "facelifts" and commonly combine Ultherapy with other treatments to restore facial shape, skin firmness and give an overall more youthful look.

Most patients see immediate skin tightening and firming after Ultherapy. Results continue for 2-3 months and last for 1-2 years.

Ultherapy was initially cleared to address sagging skin in three key areas: eyebrows, under the chin, and on the neck. Later, the FDA also approved Ultherapy for reducing deep wrinkling on the décolletage (the area below the throat at the top of the chest).

Cosmetic Skin & Laser Center in Naples, Petoskey, and Traverse City has offered Ultherapy since it was released. Our providers have had ongoing training in the most advanced Ultherapy techniques and customize your treatment to achieve the most natural results in your most troublesome areas.

The loose skin where the eyebrows sit can give the whole brow a "heavy look", creating a constant look of concern or exhaustion. Tightening the skin in the eyebrow area with Ultherapy can reduce the "heavy look" and open up the eyes, allowing a more alert and pleasant natural look.

Yes! While excess fat is frequently the cause behind a double chin, loose skin can also hang down and create the appearance of a bulge. Whether this sagging skin is a result of natural aging or significant weight loss, Ultherapy effectively tightens the skin under the chin.

Yes! Wrinkled and sagging skin on the neck, or commonly known as "turkey neck" is an area that is visible at all times. Rejuvenating the collagen on the neck with Ultherapy creates more definition, giving patients a youthful silhouette. This is sometimes called a non-surgical neck lift.

Yes! Since the chest area is frequently exposed to the sun, the ongoing breakdown of collagen and elastin in the skin can lead to the development of deep wrinkles and crepey skin. Ultherapy can smooth out deep wrinkles on the chest.

Many ask about the pain associated with Ultherapy. The extent of discomfort can depend on a few things and honestly, the discomfort varies tremendously. The ultrasound device rests on the surface of the skin but the energy penetrates deeply into the skin-- that's why it's so effective. We offer in-office Pro-Nox, or laughing gas, to help ease the discomfort.

Ultherapy targets deeper tissue that lasers and other non-invasive treatment options are unable to reach. In fact, Ultherapy targets the same depth a surgeon would go to for a facelift - the SMAS. Because of this, it can be painful in brief spurts. At our medspa and laser center we offer in-office laughing gas (Pro-Nox) that makes Ultherapy a breeze for most patients.

For the right candidate - ABSOLUTELY. Ultherapy is a favorite treatment among our staff because it’s only one treatment with no downtime and the results last up to two years. Ultherapy at Cosmetic Skin & Laser Center medspa is a perfect fit for those who want to give their face, neck, and chest an overall, global lift.
