Ulthera®
With Ultherapy™ there is a new and innovative method for tightening skin and connective tissue – without injection, laser or intensive light.
Ulthera™ utilizes an innovative ultrasonic technology.
As with other ultrasonic procedures, a smooth ultrasound transducer is guided over the skin, and then the focused ultrasonic energy can be emitted into the intended tissue layers in order to stimulate the desired tightening effects. The surface of your skin is not injured in the course of this procedure.
The regeneration of collagen in the skin is stimulated as a response to this energy. The skin gradually becomes firmer and tighter, and a natural lifting effect occurs.
Ultrasound
These are sound waves of a certain wavelength spectrum. Ultrasound can be used diagnostically to receive a graphic picture of the irradiated structure. We use the ultrasound also therapeutically to introduce active substances deeper into the skin. In addition, the oscillation of the material causes a metabolic triggering of the cells.
UVA1 light
UVA1 light is light from a certain spectrum of the ultraviolet range that is particularly suitable for treatment of skin diseases such as psoriasis or neurodermatitis because it is very anti-inflammatory without causing skin irritation.
