"I heard Ulthera is effective,

but I’m not really sure exactly how it works..."

These days, Ulthera’s effects are mentioned often even on TV, so it feels like it has become a hot treatment.

When I receive consultation inquiries, I also hear many complaints that, although it is a well-known treatment, it was very hard to find information one piece at a time.

So today, I’d like to go through everything about Ulthera one by one, including how the treatment works, its effects, treatment areas, matters related to shot count, equipment, and more.

By the time you finish reading, I think you’ll become an Ulthera theory expert(?) to the point where you can explain it to others. ^^

Ulthera treatment principle

Yeongdeungpo Ulthera Lifting, Summarized in This Post image 2

Ulthera is a treatment that improves skin elasticity by using high-intensity ultrasound energy to penetrate deep into the skin (the SMAS layer) and generate heat of 60~70℃.

It can be compared to the principle of using a magnifying lens to focus sunlight on one point and burn paper.

This may sound a little frightening at first, but in reality it is carried out through a very precise process.

In other words, it lifts by tightening the loosened parts inside the skin without causing burns on the surface.

Effects and main treatment areas

Ulthera treatment effects tend to appear relatively slowly, and usually become noticeable about 2~3 months after the procedure, with effects lasting for more than 6 months.

That’s why many people manage it by getting it once or twice a year.

Why do Ulthera effects appear slowly?

Since the skin’s collagen regeneration process takes about 2~3 months, the effects become most noticeable about 90 days after the procedure, though this can vary from person to person.

Looking at the main Ulthera treatment areas,

  • Fine lines around the eyes

  • Sagging cheeks

  • Nasolabial folds

  • Drooping jawline

  • Neck wrinkles

It is especially effective for improving the double chin area, where fat tends to accumulate more as we age.

As you can see from the treatment areas, it is usually performed on areas where the skin tends to sag easily.

Things to consider when deciding the number of shots

Once you decide to get Ulthera, the next concern is the number of shots.

"Is 300 shots the right amount for Ulthera?"

"I heard 600 shots are commonly done—would that be better for me too?"

You may have seen many reviews like this.

The number of shots expressed as 300 shots or 600 shots refers to the number of times ultrasound energy is delivered to create thermal coagulation points.

Usually, 300 or 600 shots are commonly performed, but the number can vary depending on the individual’s face.

Although the number of shots is important, more shots do not automatically mean better results.

Ulthera tends to be more effective when performed on people who have a certain amount of facial volume.

If someone with little facial fat receives too many shots, the heat can be delivered to the fat layer as well, which may cause side effects such as hollow cheeks.

Therefore, during the procedure, it is better to look for a clinic that carefully considers factors such as the individual’s skin thickness and degree of sagging before deciding the treatment intensity and number of shots.

Check what equipment is used

These days, before Ulthera consultation,

"Do you have Ultherapy Prime?"

"Can I get the procedure with Ultherapy Prime?"

questions like these are often asked first.

Ultherapy Prime is an upgraded version of Ulthera equipment.

While the existing Ulthera equipment could observe skin layers up to a maximum depth of 4.5 mm, Ultherapy Prime can analyze the skin up to 8 mm.

Because it can observe the skin layers more precisely, it has the feature of allowing more effective treatment even for people with thicker skin layers or more advanced signs of aging.

Also, the energy delivery speed has improved by 20% compared to before, which is meaningful in that it reduces treatment time and the burden of pain.

Hospitals also introduce equipment depending on need and demand.

Therefore, if you check whether the clinic you plan to visit has the latest equipment and multiple devices, you can infer that the medical staff likely have extensive treatment experience.

If you are considering Yeongdeungpo Ulthera, the first priority is to accurately understand your own skin condition.

Since it is a relatively expensive treatment, to achieve better results, it is necessary to proceed through a careful consultation with the medical staff.

If skilled medical professionals analyze each individual’s skin characteristics in detail and perform a customized treatment accordingly, more satisfying results can be expected.

Thank you. This was Yeongdeungpo UNNI.^^
