Ultherapy - Boise ID

Q: Can Ultherapy® be used to tighten skin on the neck?

Ultherapy ® is excellent at tightening and reducing crepiness of neck skin. We often recommend combining Ultherapy on the neck with treatments for the lower face and chest to further reduce the signs of aging.

Q: Can Ultherapy® replace a facelift?

While Ultherapy ® provides excellent results for most patients, there are some circumstances where a facelift is necessary. Scheduling a complimentary medical assessment with one of our premier medical providers is the quickest way to determine if Ultherapy® or surgery is right for you.

Q: Is Ultherapy® worth it?

Ultherapy ® has one of the highest satisfaction rates among all of our treatments at Boise Image Enhancement Centre, and is a must-have for those who want to turn back time on their appearance. While Ultherapy ® works in similar ways as laser and radiofrequency treatments, the properties of the ultrasound energy unique to Ultherapy ® targets much deeper than other treatments, and is the only treatment that can create collagen at the foundational levels of the skin.

Q: Can Ultherapy by used on the stomach?

Safe, studied protocols exist for Ultherapy ® to tighten skin on several areas of the body, including the stomach, buttocks, knees, thighs, and arms. Our premier medical providers have extensive experience with Ultherapy ® body treatments and are experts in treating these areas.

Boise Image Enhancement Centre providers have over 30 years of experience in skin tightening and rejuvenation. Our staff have successfully treated over 30,000 patients utilizing the area’s largest and most innovative array of Ultherapy^® ultrasound and complementing laser technologies. No other provider in the Treasure Valley has more expertise or has successfully completed more aesthetic skin care procedures utilizing ultrasound and laser technology.

Ultherapy^®

The Ultherapy^® procedure stimulates collagen production by delivering focused ultrasound energy to the skin’s foundational layer that are typically addressed in cosmetic surgery—without cutting or disrupting the surface of the skin. This is a non-surgical ultrasound treatment that counteracts the effects of gravity on your skin.

The technology behind Ultherapy^® uses ultrasound (soundwaves) to make small, hot spots which trigger a natural response under the skin, jump starting the regenerative process that produces fresh, new collagen. This causes the skin to contract and tighten and non-invasively lift the eyebrow, neck, jawline, and under the chin. With the addition of the new Ultherapy® Décolletage Treatment, Ultherapy is also now the only non-invasive procedure specifically indicated by the FDA to improve lines and wrinkles on the chest. And this is all accomplished with little to no downtime.

Ultherapy^® vs. Laser Treatments

Ultherapy® uses sound energy which allows it to pass through the surface of the skin to treat the foundational layers of the skin that other non-invasive cosmetic devices cannot reach. Ultherapy® ultrasound stimulates collagen production in the skin’s foundation, resulting in a clinically significant lift of tissue over 2-3 months.

Lasers and lights rely on light energy, which cannot reach deeper skin layers at an optimal temperature, so laser treatments typically only treat superficial skin and are not FDA-cleared to lift skin. Since the two technologies often treat different types of skin issues, they’re actually very compatible.

Experience Counts!

Boise Image Enhancement Centre providers have over 3 decades of experience in skin tightening and rejuvenation. BIEC’s staff of medical providers have successfully treated over 30,000 patients utilizing the area’s largest and most innovative array of ultrasound and laser technologies. No other provider in the Treasure Valley has more expertise or has successfully completed more aesthetic skin care procedures utilizing ultrasound and laser technology.

Ultherapy^® Benefits

While Ultherapy^® treats the deep foundational layers addressed in cosmetic surgery, it won’t duplicate the results of a face lift. Ultherapy^® is a clinically proven, non-invasive alternative for those not ready for surgery—and can even be an option for patients who wish to extend the effects of cosmetic surgery.

Ultherapy^® Treatment Areas

Ultherapy® treatments may be performed on all parts of the body, even those areas that have been difficult to tighten in the past.

Common Ultherapy® treatment areas include:

Face – Full face, brows, lower face
Neck
Chest – Decolletage
Upper Arms
Abdomen
Buttocks
Thighs

Ultherapy^® Treatment Details

Ultherapy^® treatment time varies depending on the area being treated. Face and neck procedures take approximately 90 minutes, while the chest treatment takes approximately 30 minutes. There is no downtime after this procedure. You can resume normal activities immediately with no special post-treatment measures.

After your Ultherapy^® treatment, you may see some initial effect, but the full results will start taking place as your body naturally generates collagen over a two-to-three-month period. This collagen-building process can continue up to six months, where some individuals see the full result. Since the procedure stimulates natural collagen production, results last for different lengths depending on each individual. While the treatment produces new collagen on the inside, the natural aging process often dictates how long the new collagen’s effects last on someone’s outer appearance.

Most patients only need one Ultherapy^® treatment. However, based on the looseness of the skin, responsiveness to ultrasound energy, and individual collagen-building process, some patients benefit from additional treatments. Because skin continues to age, many patients take advantage of touch-up treatments to renew their results and keep pace with the body’s natural aging process.
