The Lift You Can See, The Results You’ll Love
Transform your skincare journey with Ultherapy PRIME—the non-invasive solution to lift and tighten your skin naturally.
What is Ulthera Prime (MFU-V)?
Micro-Focused Ultrasound with Visualization (MFU-V) is a non-invasive treatment designed to target skin laxity. It uses ultrasound technology to reach the deeper layers of the skin, including the Superficial Musculoaponeurotic System (SMAS) and deep dermis, which are crucial in providing structure and support to the skin.
How Does It Works
MFU-V delivers focused ultrasound energy to specific depths within the skin:
SMAS Layer (up to 4.5mm)
A key layer that supports the skin, similar to what is targeted in a surgical facelift.
Deep Dermis (3.0mm)
Stimulates the production of new collagen and elastin, essential for firmness and elasticity.
Upper Dermis (1.5mm)
Helps improve skin texture and fine lines.
By accurately visualizing the targeted area, the procedure delivers energy precisely to collagen-rich zones, stimulating a natural regeneration process.
Treatment Protocol
- Consultation: A thorough skin assessment will be conducted to determine if MFU-V is suitable for your concerns.
- Treatment: The session can take 30 to 90 minutes, depending on the area treated. Real-time visualization ensures accurate targeting of the skin’s deeper layers.
- Post-Treatment: Normal activities can typically be resumed immediately, with no downtime required.
Expected Outcomes
- Lifting of the eyebrows, jawline, and neck.
- Tightening of lax skin in the submental (under-chin) area.
- Reduction of fine lines and improvement in skin texture.
- Results continue to develop over 2-3 months as new collagen forms, with improvements lasting up to a year or longer for some patients.
Possible Adverse Events
MFU-V delivers focused ultrasound energy to specific depths within the skin:
- Mild Redness: Usually subsides within a few hours post-treatment.
- Swelling: Temporary and typically mild, resolving within a few days.
- Tingling or Tenderness: These sensations are common immediately after treatment and diminish as the skin heals.
- Temporary Bruising: In some cases, mild bruising can occur but generally resolves within a week.
- Mild Discomfort: During the procedure, some patients may feel brief moments of discomfort when the ultrasound energy is delivered, particularly at deeper depths.
Your doctor will discuss comfort management options to ensure a pleasant experience.
