Hello. This is Chang Dermatology, your beauty partner dedicated to helping you maintain young, healthy skin.
Ultherapy lifting is one of the procedures many people choose as a way to achieve smoother, more elastic-looking skin.
It is a device-based treatment that has remained a popular choice among lifting procedures for many years.
It is a noninvasive procedure that helps improve overall skin aging by improving skin elasticity and wrinkles.
Recently, Ultherapy PRIME, an advanced version of Ultherapy, was introduced and has been attracting considerable attention.

Today, we would like to explain the differences between Ultherapy and Ultherapy PRIME.
First, the newly launched Ultherapy PRIME has the advantage of being more convenient than the original Ultherapy, and it is characterized by improved treatment precision.
As its overall technology and functions have been upgraded, it is also considered capable of further improving overall satisfaction with the procedure.

Both Ultherapy and Ultherapy PRIME use high-intensity focused ultrasound energy to improve skin elasticity.
The ultrasound energy reaches the dermis and SMAS layers of the skin, creating thermal coagulation points that contract the tissue. This process induces the production of new collagen.
As collagen production within the skin increases, skin elasticity also naturally improves, and the procedure can help reduce fine lines as a result.
The difference between Ultherapy and Ultherapy PRIME is particularly clear in their ultrasound imaging technology.

Ultherapy lifting is characterized by its use of DeepSee technology to enhance the delicacy and precision of the lifting procedure.
DeepSee technology refers to technology that enables lifting while viewing the tissues beneath the skin in real time through ultrasound imaging.
While the original system could visualize depths of up to 4.5 mm, Ultherapy PRIME can visualize depths of up to 8 mm, demonstrating a clear difference between Ultherapy PRIME and Ultherapy.
The ability to view deeper layers of the skin has improved treatment precision and offers the advantage of providing effective lifting without being limited by skin thickness.

Differences between Ultherapy and Ultherapy PRIME can also be seen in the ultrasound display. First, the ultrasound display has higher resolution and a larger screen.
The original Ultherapy also had an ultrasound display, but its resolution was not very high, which could make precise depth adjustment difficult and cause other inconveniences.
However, the larger screen and higher resolution make more precise treatment possible. In addition, the device produces less noise, allowing the procedure to be performed in a quieter environment.

Improvements in device operation speed, screen touch response, and overall responsiveness have also shortened the overall treatment time.
The improvement in device-related speeds and the resulting reduction in total time can be considered a very positive change from the customers’ perspective as well.
There is no major difference between Ultherapy PRIME and Ultherapy in terms of the lifting principle or energy intensity. However, as mentioned earlier, a significant development has been made in DeepSee, its proprietary technology.
In practice, the ultrasound display plays a major role in Ultherapy, so it is being suggested that this single factor alone may further increase satisfaction with the lifting results.

The depth at which the SMAS layer is located differs from person to person. There is a clear difference between performing treatment based on an estimated depth and performing it while confirming each individual’s SMAS layer location on a clear ultrasound display.
Another significant advantage is that treatment-related discomfort has been reduced. This may be especially positive news for people who are highly sensitive to pain.
As overall technology has improved and satisfaction with the procedure has also increased considerably, those seeking personalized aging care may wish to consider the newly launched Ultherapy PRIME.
