Are you staring down the barrel of your golden years’? The good news is that you do not have to look your age, thanks to non-surgical cosmetic procedures. The introduction of Ultherapy in London has been raising eyebrows and turning heads for all the right reasons.
Say goodbye to loose skin and wrinkles and hello to your jawline with Ultherapy; a non-invasive, non-surgical treatment currently riding a wave of popularity.
What is Ultherapy London?
Ultherapy is an anti-ageing procedure that uses ultrasound technology lift, tighten and firm the skin.
A handheld scanner is typically used in this procedure to penetrate the deeper layers of tissue where collagen and elastin are found. Ultrasound technology includes visualisations that allow your physician to identify tissue damage and channel the energy to those areas.
Is Ultherapy in London safe?
If the treatment is administered by a highly-skilled, qualified and experienced practitioner, you have nothing to worry about. Treatment is not only effective but also safe.
What impact does the energy have on the skin?
Collagen is a vital protein that keeps our body taut, firm and youthful. Unfortunately, the body only produces it in a finite supply, which depletes as you get older.
Ultherapy London strengthens and rejuvenates existing collagen while jumpstarting the production of new collagen.
The results? An initial lift and improved firmness soon after treatment, with results, slowly unfolding over the next few months.
Will I experience pain or discomfort?
Initially, you might experience quick, intermittent feelings of heat or a tingling sensation as a result of the ultrasound energy being delivered to the targeted areas.
Can Ultherapy London be described as a facelift?
You will not be going under the knife, but Ultherapy London is often perceived as a type of non-surgical facelift.
Ultherapy is not just for the face but can also treat the neck and decolletage (chest area).
How long do the results last?
Results can last a year to 18 months, with maintenance treatments continuing to rebuild collagen. It is important to note that every patient is different and your medical practitioner will give you all the advice you need.
Is there a recovery period?
Recovery time for a regular facelift might span a few weeks, which is an inconvenience or even an impossibility for the average worker who only gets a limited amount of annual leave.
Booking time off work is something you need not worry about with London Ultherapy. You can return to normal activities afterwards without anyone noticing you have had work done – the results are subtle and natural.
Only minor side effects occur at this stage, which includes appearing a bit flushed. If you feel self-conscious by the way you look, light makeup can be applied.
