Reversing the aging process is not as easy as taking a miracle pill. It requires many facets of health and wellness. Good nutrition and exercise play a critical role in promoting total body wellness. As the aging process progresses the body can break down many important components in our skin. Collagen is the main source of protein in the skin that maintains our youthful appearance. Collagen is responsible for skin firmness. Once it diminishes we lose elasticity that causes wrinkles to appear. A new technology involving ultrasound is revolutionizing facial rejuvenation to reduce the appearance of aging.
Ulthera is an FDA cleared device to non-invasively lift the face and neck. It has recently received FDA clearance to non-invasively treat the chest to improve lines and wrinkles of the décolleté.
Ultherapy works by using ultrasound guided technology to actually view the underlying tissue that is being treated. For the first time, we are able to reach below the dermal layer sending ultrasound energy into the fibromuscular layer promoting collagen production. If you have weakened collagen in the deeper connective tissue, it can cause the skin to succumb to gravitational forces that begin to stretch, sag and shift downward, a process we call “aging”. Ultherapy is a procedure for lifting the neck, eyebrows and midface with meaningful results and no downtime.
The Ultherapy treatment begins with marking the area on the face to be treated. This process is very important because it uses the same target area that is addressed in cosmetic surgery for skin tightening. Once the skin is marked for treatment a mild sedative is given to aid in the comfort of the treatment. A full face treatment can take anywhere from 45-60 minutes. You may return to normal activities and can experience flushing or redness that should resolve within a few hours. The regenerative process is initiated at the first treatment, however results may take up to six months since you are relying on the body’s own healing process to repair and rebuild your skin’s foundation.
The New Ultherapy Décolletage Treatment utilizes the System’s signature imaging and micro-focused ultrasound therapy capabilities and takes about 30 minutes to administer. The Treatment stimulates the natural formation of collagen and elastin in the skin’s foundation to gradually smooth chest wrinkles. Results are visible after about three months.
The ability to treat not just skin but also its underlying support very precisely, from the inside out, helps ensure both safe and satisfying results. For More Information visit www.mdbeautylabs.com or call 561-655-6325.
