Ultraformer III – Skin tightening

A high percentage of patients are now opting for non-invasive ultrasound treatment of face lifting. Especially, the lower face where there are sagging jaw lines, jowls and ‘Turkey Neck”; the upper wrinkled neck is a big concern! Patients just do not want scalpel cutting into their faces.

Ultraformer III is a new generation of ultrasound device successfully tightening the skin at three levels: superficial skin, the underskin and the deeper SMAS level, the same plane as surgical facelift.

It is a 30-60 minute treatment that requires no anaesthetic and no preparation; patients can go back to work and social activities immediately after treatment; there may be some redness that lasts for 2-3 hours*. There is no treatment necessary after therapy.

There will be noticeable skin tightening immediately after and a more visible improvement after 3 months*. A second treatment will be given to boost more collagen production and selfrepair. A third treatment may be given at 12 months and maintenance treatment is encouraged at 12-18 months thereafter to slow the aging process*.

The scientific logic is MIFU Sound Energy which is focused at different levels of skin and under skin with thermal coagulation, with immediate tightening, and causing injury to collagen, to stimulate regeneration of new collagen to support the skin and ‘iron out’ the wrinkles. The renewed beautiful appearance will be all natural and may last 12-18 months*.
