What is Ulthera Prime? Skin tightening at the SMAS level with real-time visualization.
As we age, many people begin to notice that their face changes not only in terms of wrinkles, but also that their cheeks may sag, their jawline may become less defined, their eyebrows may lower, or the skin under their chin and neck may lose firmness, even if their weight hasn't changed significantly.
In fact, these problems aren't solely due to the skin; they can involve multiple structures, including... The skin, fat, muscles, facial ligaments, and deep tissues such as the SMAS layer.
Therefore, when looking for a skin tightening device, you shouldn't just consider which one is "more powerful," but also how deep the energy penetrates the tissue and what structural issue you're actually concerned about.
Ulthera Prime or Ultherapy PRIME It is a non-surgical lifting technology that uses energy. Microfocused Ultrasound with Visualization or MFU-V Energy can be delivered as a point down to various depths, from the surface to approximately [level]. 4.5 mm, which is related to the SMAS/Platysma layer in the appropriate area.
Another highlight of Ultherapy is... Real-time Ultrasound Visualization This allows the doctor to visualize the tissue layers beneath the skin during the procedure, enabling them to plan the depth of energy to use in each area, where to apply the energy, and approximately how many lines to use.
Therefore, it's another option for those who are starting to worry about this. Sagging cheeks, undefined jawline, drooping eyebrows, and loose skin under the chin or neck. And I want deep lifting without surgery.

What is Ulthera Prime?
Ulthera Prime is a non-surgical skin tightening technology that uses Microfocused Ultrasound with Visualization, or MFU-V. Ultrasound energy is delivered to tissue layers at a specified depth.
Energy is concentrated in tiny points beneath the skin, heating the tissue to an optimal level and stimulating the body's natural repair process.
The process will then gradually unfold. Collagen Remodeling The skin and tissues undergo continuous changes in the post-procedure period; not all results are seen immediately in a single day.
What makes Ulthera Prime attractive for skin tightening is its ability to select multiple energy levels, from the dermis to lower levels. 4.5 mm, which is used to access fibromuscular tissue layers, including SMAS/Platysma, in appropriate areas.
The first thing to understand is that Ulthera Prime isn't designed to make everyone's face smaller or V-shaped.
The main goal is to help take care of them. Loosening of the skin and tissues at various levels. To suit each person's anatomy and original facial structure.
How does Ulthera Prime work?
To explain it simply, Ulthera Prime sends ultrasound waves through the surface of the skin and focuses the energy into small points at a chosen depth. These energy points are called Thermal Coagulation Points When tissues receive the appropriate level of energy, partial collagen contraction occurs, and the body begins the repair process, including ongoing collagen remodeling in the post-procedure period.
The key point is that the energy is not delivered at the same depth across the entire face, because each location has different anatomy and tissue thickness. Ultherapy PRIME has three levels of transducers used for primary treatment.
1.5 mm — Superficial Dermis
It is a relatively shallow level, suitable for treating skin tissue layers according to the specific needs of each location.
3.0 mm — Deep Dermis
Going a step deeper, it can be used to care for tissue in the deeper dermis layer and aid in collagen remodeling.
4.5 mm — SMAS / Platysma Level
This is a deep level used to deliver energy to the fibromuscular layer, and in the face and neck areas, it is appropriately related to... SMAS or Platysma This is one of the reasons why Ultherapy is used for these goals. Lifting It doesn't focus solely on the firmness of the top surface. But that doesn't mean 4.5 mm has to be used everywhere, or that the more 4.5 mm rounds you shoot, the better. More importantly, each position has a target layer, and the depth chosen should be proportional to actual anatomy.
What is the SMAS layer? Why is it important for skin tightening?
The word SMAS Often mentioned when choosing a skin tightening device, many people may still be unsure what it actually is.
SMAS stands for Superficial Musculoaponeurotic System. It is a layer of fascia and muscle tissue that is deeper than the subcutaneous fat layer and is involved in the structure and movement of facial tissues. Simply put, the SMAS layer is one of the deep-level structures that plays a role in supporting facial tissues. As we age, changes occur not only in the decrease of collagen in the skin, but also in the fat, ligaments, muscles, bones, and deep tissues. That's why addressing certain types of sagging skin may require a deeper approach than simply treating the surface layer of the skin.
Does Ulthera Prime really reach the SMAS layer?
Ultherapy PRIME has a high-level transducer. 4.5 mm Which is designed to deliver energy to the fibromuscular layers, including: SMAS/Platysma in the appropriate area. But there's something important that should be understood first. SMAS is not located at the same depth of 4.5 mm at every point on the face. Each person's face and each area has different skin thickness, fat, and the location of structures. Therefore, having a 4.5 mm tip doesn't mean you should shoot with the same 4.5 mm tip all over the face. This is where the system... Real-time Ultrasound Visualization It plays a role because it helps to visualize the actual tissue before selecting the depth and delivering energy.
Why are machines that land at the SMAS level mentioned in the context of Lifting?
Because facial sagging doesn't only occur on the surface of the skin. Delivering energy to deep tissue in the appropriate areas allows for a higher level of lifting treatment, while the 1.5 and 3.0 mm heads can be used to treat superficial tissue. Therefore, the highlight of Ulthera Prime is not just that... “"Can fire up to SMAS."” But you can choose from several levels of treatment. 1.5 mm + 3.0 mm + 4.5 mm And place each level appropriately to the anatomy of each area.
Why is real-time visualization important?
Many people may have heard the term. Real-time Visualization But it's still unclear how this relates to Ulthera Prime. In reality, each person's face has different skin thickness, fat, and tissue layer positions, even in the same area. Especially if you want to select energy at a deep level, such as... 4.5 mm Knowing where the target tissue is located is even more important. Ultrasound visualization systems allow doctors to visualize the tissue layers beneath the skin before delivering energy. This makes it possible to see that...
- Where are the tissue layers located?
- How thick or thin is that area?
- What transducer level should be used?
- Should use 1.5, 3.0, or 4.5 mm.
- Which points should be emphasized more or less?
- Where should the number of lines be placed?
Therefore, when considering Ulthera Prime, one shouldn't focus solely on "how many lines" are obtained.“ But you should also consider that... Where are those lines placed, at what depth, and at what level of tissue are they being treated?
What are the benefits of Ulthera Prime?
One question many people wonder about is: What are the benefits of Ulthera Prime? Ulthera Prime is primarily suitable for problems related to skin and tissue laxity, such as:
- My cheeks are starting to sag.
- Lower Face looks droopy.
- The facial features are blurry.
- The jawline is becoming blurry.
- The skin under the chin is starting to sag.
- The skin on the neck is not firm.
- My eyebrows are starting to droop.
- Need to treat deep sagging.
- Want to stimulate collagen remodeling?
- Looking for a non-surgical facelift.
- I don't want long periods of downtime.
Ulthera Prime features multiple energy levels, from the dermis to the SMAS/Platysma layer, allowing for treatment placement in both superficial and deep layers as needed. But there's one very important point here: problems that appear similar on the outside may stem from different causes.
The facial contour is unclear due to sagging skin.
If your jawline used to be well-defined, but lately you've noticed your cheeks sagging in the lower face area, or your jawline is less defined, one possible cause is sagging tissue. In this case, targeting energy at both the superficial and deep levels, based on anatomy, may help to define and tighten the facial contours while maintaining the original facial structure.
The facial contour is blurry due to fat.
Another group may have what appears to be sagging skin, but actually has a significant amount of fat in the lower cheeks or under the chin. In cases like this, simply increasing the number of Ulthera Prime treatments may not be the complete answer, because Ulthera Prime's primary goal is not to eliminate fat. Therefore, it's important to first differentiate between what we perceive as a "double chin" or "undefined facial contour" and its origin. Fat, sagging skin, or both.
The facial structure is indistinct.
Some people are born with a short chin, indistinct jawline, or insufficient bone support. If the primary problem stems from structural issues, a facelift alone may not change the facial shape as much as expected. Therefore, it's not necessary that everyone with an undefined facial structure needs to use the same device.
Who is Ulthera Prime suitable for?
Ulthera Prime can be considered for people who have mild to moderate skin and tissue sagging and want a non-surgical lifting treatment. For example,
- Her cheeks began to sag.
- The lower face is starting to look heavier.
- The facial features aren't as sharp as before.
- The skin under the chin is starting to sag.
- My neck is starting to feel loose.
- My eyebrows are starting to droop.
- It requires care for both the skin surface and the deep tissue layers.
- I want to take care of sagging skin while it's still young.
- I want results that are gradual and look natural.
- I don't want a long recovery period.
But "age" shouldn't be the sole criterion for deciding who should do it, or how many lines they should use. People of the same age can have...
- Uneven skin thickness
- The amount of fat is not the same.
- The depth of SMAS and tissue varies.
- Their facial structures are not alike.
- Different skin qualities.
- Different levels of slack.
Therefore, two 35-year-old people might receive completely different treatment plans.
Areas popular for Ulthera Prime treatment.
Ulthera Prime for the cheeks and lower face.
The cheeks and lower face are areas where many people start to see quite noticeable changes as they age. As the tissue begins to shift downwards, the lower face will appear heavier, wrinkles may become more pronounced, and the facial contour may look different. Ulthera Prime allows the selection of multiple treatment heads to target both superficial and deep tissue levels in the appropriate areas.
Ulthera Prime on the face contour and jawline.
If your jawline was quite defined before, but lately you've started to see more discontinuity, one factor might be tissue laxity. The goal, therefore, is not to make everyone have the same V-shaped face, but to help define and tighten the original facial structure.
Ulthera Prime under the chin.
The area under the chin can present with various problems. Sagging skin and fat. Stay together. If the primary problem is laxity, appropriate energy delivery, including deep penetration into the platysma, can be considered based on anatomy. However, if you have a lot of fat under your chin, you may need to consider treatments that help manage the fat.
Ulthera Prime for the neck area.
The neck area has a structure. Platysma This is located within the fibromuscular layer, which can be a target for a 4.5 mm transducer in the appropriate area. For those who need care for both their face and neck, a combined Face + Neck treatment plan can be developed.
Ulthera Prime on the eyebrow area.
Ultherapy can be used to treat the eyebrow area in suitable individuals, helping to address sagging around the eyebrows and eyes. This area has delicate anatomy, so appropriate positioning and depth are necessary.
How many lines of Ulthera Prime are needed?
question How many lines of Ulthera are there? This is one of the most frequently asked questions, because many promotions offer different price ranges for 300, 400, or 600 lines. But to determine if it's worthwhile or sufficient, we should look beyond just the numbers. The questions that should be asked together are: “"Where exactly are these lines being worked, and what depth of work is being used?"” Because Ulthera Prime can be used with 1.5, 3.0, and 4.5 mm needles, having 400 lines in the same package doesn't mean it's the same treatment plan. The results are also related to...
- Area where work was done
- Anatomy
- Depth
- Target tissue
- Vector
- Line Distribution
- Level of looseness
- face size
- The goal to be solved.
Who is Ulthera Prime 300 Lines suitable for?
Ulthera Prime 300 lines This might be suitable for those who want to focus on specific areas or have a small area that needs attention. But that doesn't mean 300 lines will be enough for everyone's full face.
Who is Ulthera Prime 400 line suitable for?
400 lines can increase coverage area and can be distributed to multiple areas depending on the problem. But what you should look at is... Line Distribution and Depth Distribution For example, the number of lines used for 3.0 mm and the number of lines used for 4.5 mm should depend on the anatomy and treatment goal, not a single formula should be applied to everyone.
Who is Ulthera Prime 600 lines suitable for?
Ulthera Prime 600 lines This can be considered for those who need to manage a larger area, such as a full-face view or multiple areas together. But that doesn't mean... 600 lines is always better than 400 lines. The appropriate amount should be proportional to the area, target tissue, and treatment plan.
How many lines are needed for Face + Neck?
If you want to treat both the face and neck, the area that requires energy will be significantly larger. Therefore, the number of lines should be considered from all angles.
- face size
- Neck area
- Level of looseness
- Depth of target tissue
- Area to be emphasized
More than determined by a single standard number.
Does Ulthera Prime hurt?
Another question that many people worry about before doing it is: Does Ulthera Prime hurt? To be honest, I still had feelings during the process. Some people might feel that way.
- warmth
- It's a sharp, stinging spot.
- Tightness deep beneath the skin
- The sensation is more pronounced in certain areas near the bone.
The sensation at a depth of 4.5 mm may differ from a shallower tip because the energy is delivered to the tissue at a different level. However, the level of feeling varies from person to person and also depends on...
- Pain Sensitivity
- Area where it was done
- Depth used
- Energy level
- Tissue thickness
- The anatomy of each person.
Therefore, Ulthera Prime should not be expected to be "completely painless" for everyone.
When will I see results with Ulthera Prime?
After Ulthera Prime treatment, some people may notice a slight tightening of the skin or tissue immediately afterward. But what I want you to understand is... Immediately After (This is not the final result) Because one of the key mechanisms of Ulthera is the process... Collagen Remodeling Which will take time. The energy delivered at different levels, from the dermis to the SMAS/Platysma level, stimulates different tissue responses depending on the treatment plan. Therefore, it's better to view the results as a timeline rather than just the first day after the procedure.
Immediately after the procedure.
You may feel some tension or tightness in the tissues in certain areas, but that's not the whole picture.
Approximately 1 month
The remodeling process continues, and some people may start to notice a change in the overall compactness.
Approximately 2–3 months
This is an ideal time for follow-up because collagen and tissue remodeling takes time.
How long does Ulthera Prime last?
If you ask me... How long does Ulthera Prime last? In reality, it's impossible to assign a single number to everyone. Because even after Ulthera Prime treatment, the aging process still occurs naturally. The time frame for the results can vary depending on several factors, such as:
- age
- Level of slack before treatment
- Original Collagen Quality
- Number and location of shots.
- Depth level used
- Anatomy
- Lifestyle
- Changes in weight
- Skin care
- Each person's aging process.
Therefore, it is more suitable for individual monitoring and assessing when maintenance should be performed, rather than assigning a timeframe for everyone to return for maintenance at the same time.
How does Ulthera Prime differ from the original Ulthera?
Many people may wonder... How does Ulthera Prime differ from the original Ulthera? Ultherapy PRIME still uses the same principles. Microfocused Ultrasound with Visualization or MFU-V Similar to previous Ultherapy models, it remains capable of treatment at thicknesses of 1.5, 3.0, and 4.5 mm. The main changes are in the development of the platform and workflow to make it faster and more convenient to use. Areas of improvement include:
- The system is working faster.
- The visualization screen is larger.
- Full HD Display
- The workflow between treatments is more convenient.
- Real-time Ultrasound Visualization remains available.
- Multi-depth transducers are still being used.
- We can still provide care from the dermis down to the SMAS/Platysma level.
Therefore, Ulthera Prime doesn't completely change the mechanism of Ultherapy, but rather develops the platform to facilitate assessment and treatment planning.
What are the differences between Ulthera Prime and Ultraformer MPT?
If you are choosing between... Ulthera Prime and Ultraformer MPT These two devices may seem similar because they both belong to the Focused Ultrasound group for skin tightening. Both systems can have heads that deliver energy to various depths, including depths associated with the SMAS layer. However, the system components, treatment heads, visualization, and treatment protocols differ in detail.
The key features of Ulthera Prime are: Real-time Ultrasound Visualization This allows doctors to visualize the actual tissue before selecting the depth and delivering energy. So instead of asking, “"Which device reaches more SMAS (Smart Complex)?"” The question should be: “"Which machine is more suitable for our anatomy and problem?"” Because simply going down to a depth of 4.5 mm doesn't determine the entire result.
Ulthera Prime or Ultraformer MPT: Which is the better choice?
If you prioritize real-time visualization that allows you to see tissue layers during the procedure, this is one of the differentiating factors of Ultherapy. But that doesn't mean the Ultraformer MPT isn't suitable. Ultimately, you should choose accordingly.
- Anatomy
- Level of looseness
- Treatment area
- Treatment Goal
- Budget
Rather than choosing based solely on the term "reaching SMAS" (Smart, Mass, and Environmental Management System).
What are the differences between Ulthera Prime and Xtherma?
Another pair that is often compared is... Ulthera Prime and XTherma Although both devices are used in skin tightening treatments, they use different types of energy and target different tissues. Ulthera Prime Microfocused ultrasound is used to deliver energy in focal points at a defined depth, from the dermis to the stratum corneum. SMAS/Platysma While XTherma Monopolar RF energy is used to generate and distribute heat in tissue over a larger area. To explain it simply...
Ulthera Prime
Suitable for consideration when emphasizing key points.
- Lifting
- Tissue Laxity
- deep tissue
- SMAS / Platysma Level
- Real-time Visualization
XTherma
Suitable for consideration when emphasizing key points.
- Skin Tightening
- Collagen Remodeling
- Skin firmness
- Monopolar RF energy usage.
Some people may be more suitable for ultrasound. Some people might be more suitable for RF (Radio Frequency). And some people can plan to use both technologies together because they want to care for the skin from a deep level down to the superficial level, improving the quality and firmness of the tissue.
How much does Ulthera Prime cost?
Ulthera Prime price It usually varies depending on the number of lines, the area covered, and promotions at each period. Before comparing prices from different sources, it's recommended to review at least four key details.
1. Number of lines
Ulthera Prime 300, 400, and 600 lines provide different levels of coverage. Therefore, the price differences may also be due to the different number of lines received.
2. The area where it was done.
Some programs may focus specifically on the lower face or jawline. While some programs may cover the full face, under the chin, and the neck. Therefore, if you see a significant price difference, don't just look at the number; you should also check if it covers the same area.
3. Depth and Treatment Planning
The number of lines is only one part of the treatment. Equally important is... Where are those lines placed? Are 1.5, 3.0, or 4.5 mm lines used, and at what tissue level are they being treated? Because 400 lines arranged in multiple levels according to anatomy doesn't mean the same thing as simply looking at the total number of lines.
4. Machine and Treatment Head
It is important to verify that the machine and transducer are from a verified source and that it utilizes a visualization system similar to that used in Ultherapy.
Where is the best place to get Ulthera Prime done? What should I consider before choosing a clinic?
When searching Where is the best place to get Ulthera or Ulthera Prime? You will find that many clinics have the same model of equipment. Just because the equipment is the same doesn't mean the treatment plan will be the same. Before choosing a location, it's recommended to consider several factors, such as:
- Use equipment and transducers from verifiable sources.
- An anatomical assessment is performed prior to the procedure.
- Use real-time visualization.
- Select the depth based on the actual tissue layer.
- Do not fire the same 4.5 mm rounds across all areas without evaluation.
- Explain why this number of lines was chosen.
- The treatment vector is determined based on the actual problem.
- The same protocol is not used for every face.
- There are before and after photos taken from similar angles and lighting.
- Explain the limitations of the treatment in a straightforward manner.
- We can recommend other devices if Ulthera Prime isn't the best fit for your problem.
Ulthera Prime at Fresh Code Clinic focuses on treatment planning based on anatomy.
Even when using the same Ulthera Prime model, each person doesn't necessarily need the same number of lines, locations, or depth. Because what causes facial sagging or an undefined jawline can stem from various factors. Before planning a treatment, it's important to consider the overall problem and identify the root cause for each individual.
Skin and tissue laxity
If the primary problem stems from tissue laxity, consider using multiple depth levels, including levels... 4.5 mm associated with SMAS/Platysma. In the appropriate area.
Fat in the lower face or under the chin.
If fat is the primary factor, simply increasing the number of Ulthera Prime treatments or targeting the SMAS area more often may not be the complete solution.
Bone Support
If the primary problem stems from structural issues, such as a short chin or insufficient bone support, a facelift alone may only partially help.
Skin Quality
Some people may not experience significant sagging, but may feel their skin is losing firmness or that the quality of their skin has changed. In this case, RF energy or treatments that focus on skin quality might be more suitable.
The Fresh Code Clinic's approach therefore emphasizes: Case by Case Treatment It's not about dictating that everyone has to use the same number of 4.5 mm tips, or that everyone with an undefined facial frame has to use the same machine.
Things to know before undergoing Ulthera Prime treatment.
Although Ulthera Prime is a non-surgical treatment and generally requires no long recovery time, it still uses energy at multiple depths. Therefore, it is always important to disclose any health information or previous medical history before undergoing the procedure. Especially if...
- Are there any wounds or infections in the area to be treated?
- I have a pre-existing medical condition.
- There are medical devices or supplies in the treatment area.
- Are you pregnant or breastfeeding?
- I recently received treatment in the same area.
- I just made a different type of power device.
- I've had surgery on my face before.
- There is a history of neurological or facial sensory abnormalities.
Please provide this information beforehand to help assess whether the treatment is suitable for you or if you should wait before proceeding.
Frequently Asked Questions about Ulthera Prime
Does Ulthera Prime really reach the SMAS layer?
Ultherapy PRIME has a high-level transducer. 4.5 mm Designed to deliver energy to the fibromuscular layers, including the SMAS/Platysma, in the appropriate areas. However, the depth of SMAS is not the same across the entire face, so it's better to choose the location and depth based on anatomy rather than firing a uniform 4.5 mm dose across the entire face.
What is SMAS?
SMAS or Superficial Musculoaponeurotic System It is a layer of fascia and muscle tissue at a deep level in the face and is one of the structures involved in supporting and moving facial tissues.
Does Ulthera Prime provide better lifting results the more 4.5 mm shots?
unnecessary Proper skin tightening requires a combination of positioning, number of vector lines, and the use of multiple depth levels. Some areas may be suitable for 3.0 mm, while others can use 4.5 mm. Shooting at a deeper depth without considering anatomy doesn't always mean better results.
Is Ulthera Prime any good?
Ulthera Prime It is one of the options for people who want to treat facial and neck sagging without surgery, and it has the advantage of delivering energy at multiple levels, including the SMAS level, and real-time visualization. But that doesn't mean it's the best machine for everyone.
Does Ulthera Prime show results after just one treatment?
Many people can have Ulthera Prime as a single treatment. However, the results are not immediate, as the collagen remodeling process continues gradually in the post-treatment period.
How many days does Ulthera Prime take to show results?
Some people may feel the tightness from the beginning, but it's better to assess the results after several weeks to about 2–3 months. Looking only at immediate before-and-after photos may not reflect the full results.
How long does Ulthera Prime last?
The time it takes to see results varies from person to person, depending on age, skin quality, degree of sagging, number of lines, lifestyle, and the aging process. Therefore, we should not expect everyone to live for the same amount of time.
Is 400 lines of Ulthera Prime enough?
It depends on the area to be addressed and the main problem. For some, 400 lines might be enough for the areas they want to highlight, but for a full face or face + neck look, more coverage might be needed.
Is Ulthera Prime 600 lines too many?
It cannot be determined from the numbers alone. 600 lines might be suitable for some, but not for everyone. The number of lines should be related to the area, slack, and line distribution.
Does Ulthera Prime help reduce a double chin?
If the area under the chin is not clearly visible... sagging skin Increasing firmness can help improve the appearance of that area. However, if there is a significant amount of fat under the chin, you may need to consider treatments that address the fat as well.
Does Ulthera Prime make your face look thinner?
Ulthera Prime is not primarily aimed at removing fat. However, in individuals with thin faces, low facial volume, or naturally thin tissue, anatomical evaluation and treatment planning should be done carefully. Therefore, you should not use the same number of lines or protocol as someone with more facial tissue.
Does Ulthera Prime hurt?
During the procedure, you may feel a warm, tingling, or deep tightness under the skin. The level of feeling varies depending on the individual, the area, the depth, and the energy used.
Is there any downtime after Ulthera Prime treatment?
Ulthera Prime is generally a non-invasive treatment and requires no downtime like surgery. However, some people may experience redness, swelling, bruising, or sensitivity to touch in the initial stages.
Which is better, Ulthera Prime or Ultraformer MPT?
There is no single device that is best for everyone. Although both are focused ultrasound and can reach similar depths, their visualization systems, transducers, and treatment protocols differ. The choice should be based on the anatomical problems, treatment goals, and budget.
What are the differences between Ulthera Prime and Thermage?
Ulthera Prime is used. Microfocused Ultrasound And it can select to deliver energy at various depths, from the dermis to the SMAS/Platysma level. While Thermage is in that group. Monopolar RF This heats the tissue in different ways. Therefore, the decision shouldn't be based solely on the question of "which device delves deeper," but rather on which type of energy is best suited to addressing our specific problem.
In summary, who is Ulthera Prime suitable for?
If you start to feel that... Sagging cheeks, an undefined jawline, drooping eyebrows, or skin under the chin and neck that is no longer as firm as before. And if you don't want surgery, Ulthera Prime is one of the technologies you can consider. Ulthera Prime is used. Microfocused Ultrasound with Visualization or MFU-V Energy is delivered as points down multiple levels, including:
1.5 mm — Superficial Dermis
3.0 mm — Deep Dermis
4.5 mm — SMAS / Platysma Level
This allows for the placement of treatments from the surface level to deeper tissues involved in lifting and tightening. Along with having Real-time Ultrasound Visualization It helps doctors visualize the tissue layers before selecting the depth and delivering energy. But before deciding that... “"How many lines need to be made?"” or “"How much damage does it need to do to the SMAS?"” The first thing to clarify is what is causing the perceived sagging of the face. Loose skin and tissues. fat muscle Or facial structure. Ulthera Prime might be more suitable for some people. Some people might be better suited to the Ultraformer MPT. Some people might be better suited to monopolar RF devices like XTherma or Oligio X. And some people may be more suited to a combination treatment than using a single device.
Therefore, choosing a machine doesn't necessarily have to start with... Which device reaches SMAS or is the most powerful? But we should start with... “"At what level is our problem located, and what energy level would best address that problem?"”
If you're still undecided about whether to choose Ulthera Prime, Ultraformer MPT, or an RF machine, you can start by sending frontal and side-view photos for an initial assessment, or visit Fresh Code Clinic for a evaluation first. Knowing the main problem area beforehand allows for a more accurate selection of the number of lines and treatment plan for your face.
