Ulthera Explained: What It Is and How It Works

Ulthera utilizes high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) to lift and tighten the skin without requiring incisions or injections. By sending controlled pulses of sound energy deep into the skin at specific depths, the treatment creates tiny coagulation zones that stimulate collagen production. Over time, this collagen renewal leads to firmer skin along the brow, jawline, neck, and décolletage.

Unlike lasers, which use light to treat the skin’s surface, Ulthera targets deeper supportive tissues to achieve a subtle lift. This means there’s no disruption of the surface skin and no downtime is required after treatment.

Comparing Ulthera Cartridges and Treatment Depths

Ulthera uses different cartridges, each targeting specific depths and skin concerns. By combining them, we can deliver a personalized, multi-layered rejuvenation for optimal lifting and tightening results.

1.5mm Cartridge: Targets the superficial dermis to smooth fine lines and refine skin texture. Best for delicate areas like around the eyes and lips.

3.0mm Cartridge: Penetrates mid-dermal layers to stimulate collagen, reduce moderate wrinkles, and enhance skin firmness.

4.5mm Cartridge: Reaches the SMAS layer (the foundational structure targeted in facelifts) to achieve deep lifting and tightening, especially on the jawline and neck.
