Ultherapy Toronto-Ultherapy vs. Thermage, What’s The Difference

by

Ultherapy or Thermage? That is the question.

Patients looking for non-surgical options to tighten and lift the skin will come across these two top leading industry treatments.

Ultherapy and Thermage treatments can sound quite similar.

Both use non-invasive means, by sending energy to heat their target area and stimulate collagen production.

Ultherapy and Thermage have little to no downtime and patients are able to return after treatment to their regular schedule as normal.

This is where the similarity ends.

One important difference is the type of energy used. Thermage uses radiofrequency energy whereas Ultherapy uses Focused Ultrasound energy.

Focused Ultrasound is unique in that it allows for Ultherapy to reach much deeper than other treatments. The technicians are also able to use an ultrasound screen to see exactly where they are targeting the ultrasound energy.

This leads us to the second difference between the two treatments, their target areas.

Since radiofrequency is only able to reach the upper dermis, Thermage targets the outer layers of the skin, smoothing superficial fine lines and promoting some collagen growth.

Ultherapy is able to target much deeper for more dramatic results.

Ultherapy can reach right down to the muscle and SMAS of the face essentially targeting the same tissues that are addressed in a face lift.

Ultherapy focuses on targeting areas of the face, neck and décolleté. This is why Ultherapy is the only FDA approved non-invasive treatment for lifting and tightening areas such as the neck and brow.

If you are debating between Ultherapy or Thermage, consider what areas you would like targeted.  Are you looking for superficial tightening of the skin or are you looking for a much deeper lift?

At Lasting Looks Clinc our technicians have been using Ultherapy for up to a decade.

If you would like to know more about this non-invasive treatment, we would be happy to set up a consultation.

Ultherapy Toronto-Do I Only Need One Session?

by

Ultherapy is a non-invasive Ultrasound facelift that can leave you looking younger and tighter without surgery. With a healthy skincare regimen, including daily use of sunscreen, results for one Ultherapy treatment can last up to 1 year.

The best way to prolong results is to alternate between two different Ultherapy treatments. .

Typical Ultherapy treatments target the muscle, using micro focused Ultrasound energy to stimulate the underlying tissue as well as stimulate collagen production. This treatment can last up to one year and can lift, tone and tighten loose skin.

The Ultherapy Glow, targets the superficial skin of the face, helping to smooth fine lines and improve crepey skin. The Ultherapy Glow can also be used in more sensitive areas of the face and neck and can be repeated every month.

Both treatments when used together prolong Ultherapy results.

A patient can start with a typical Ultherapy treatment tightening the muscle. Results will continue to improve day after day and full results will be visible after 3 months. Afterward touch ups can be made for specific areas or patients can have Ultherapy Glow sessions periodically to maintain their results.

Ultherapy Glow 1.5 Toronto

by

Micro Needling Toronto Contraindications
The Ultherapy Glow Treatment is a non-surgical, ultrasound treatment specifically designed to improve the texture and tighten your skin.

Traditional Ultherapy focuses on the lower levels of the dermis (4.5 mm and 3 mm), while the Ultherapy Glow treatment targets only the superficial layers of the skin (1.5 mm).

Because Ultherapy Glow only focuses on these superficial layers, it can be used all over the face, décolletage and is most effective at smoothing fine lines and wrinkles in areas with thinner skin such as the crows’ feet and upper lip lines.

In addition 1.5 Ultherapy Glow can also be effectively used for the neck. As we age and collagen levels decrease, sagging, crepey skin will actually become more apparent on the neck rather than the face.

Ultherapy 1.5 treatments are optimal since there is no downtime, and unlike traditional Ultherapy treatments numbing cream can be applied to help ease any discomfort during treatment.

The Ultherapy Glow can be done to maintain and lengthen results from traditional Ultherapy treatments. One to 3 treatments is recommended. Ultherapy treatments should be spaced a month apart.

Ultherapy Toronto- Cost Vs Results

by

Ultherapy is the gold standard for lifting and tightening the face and neck, but is the cost worth the results?

Absolutely! Over 1 million treatments have been performed and patients are ecstatic about their results.

When it comes to cost Ultherapy, although it can seem pricey, it does not compare to the price of a surgical facelift. A surgical facelift can cost up to $25,000 and requires a minimum of 2 weeks of downtime.
Ultherapy prices can range from $1500-$5000 and there is no downtime. Patients can go back to work the very next day.

Ultherapy alternatively uses micro focused ultrasound energy at various depths to stimulate the underlying tissue as well as collagen production, to result in firmer skin with fewer wrinkles.
Because Ultherapy can reach right to the muscle, results are progressive and continue to improve day after day. Full Ultherapy results are visible after 3 months.

Although Ultherapy cannot replace the dramatic effects of a surgical facelift, it provides the highest results for non-surgical facelifting treatment.

Ultherapy patients can maintain their results or focus on specific areas with future treatments.

Looking younger has never been easier. Ultherapy can have you looking as young as you feel.

Ultherapy Toronto- Pain Management

by

Ultherapy Toronto Pain Management
What can be done to maximize your comfort during an Ultherapy treatment?

There are several things that can help to manage any discomfort or pain a patient may experience during an Ultherapy procedure.

It is important to note that discomfort or pain during an Ultherapy treatment is relative to each patient. Although most patients are able to tolerate the Ultherapy procedure without significant pain, patients will definitely feel the ultrasound energy delivered through the skin to the muscle or targeted area. This can cause some discomfort for some, particularly in sensitive areas where the bone is closer to the skin such as the jaw or forehead.

Before an Ultherapy procedure a patient may take 2 Advil Extra strength 30 minutes prior to their appointment. Make sure that this is not done on an empty stomach. Additionally 30 minutes after taking Advil, a patient can also take 2 Tylenol Extra Strength. Both of these medications will work on different pain receptors and make the Ultherapy treatment as comfortable as possible.

For general Ultherapy treatments that target the muscle, topical anesthetic will not be effective as it will not reach into the deep muscle tissue where the Ultherapy ultrasound penetrates.

A topical anesthetic cream may be used on treatments targeting the superficial layers of the skin such as the Ultherapy Glow treatment.

The Ultherapy Glow treatment focuses on the upper layer of tissue and tightens skin. When having the Ultherapy Glow treatment, a patient may prefer to have a topical numbing agent applied. The practitioner can apply a numbing cream before commencing treatment allowing it to take effect. Bear in mind that this will add length to the time required for your treatment.

After an Ultherapy session there is no downtime required, discomfort will minimize. When treating the deeper tissue, some patients may experience slight redness or tenderness if the treated area is pressed. These effects are temporary and will resolve themselves quickly.

In Toronto, Lasting Looks Clinic work to make sure a patient is as comfortable as possible during and after an Ultherapy session. If you would like to inquire about Ultherapy at Lasting Looks Clinic, please contact us.

Ultherapy Toronto – Gold Standard Treatment

by

Ultherapy Toronto The Gold Standard
Ultherapy® has been declared the Gold Standard treatment for nonsurgical skin lifting and tightening!

Ultherapy is the only non-invasive Health Canada Licensed treatment to lift and tighten the skin on the neck, eyebrow, and under the chin, as well as to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles on the neck and décolletage.  It’s also the only cosmetic procedure to use ultrasound imaging.

Ultherapy’s most important factor is the ability to treat at optimal treatment depths such as the muscle, deep collagen and epidermal tissue to achieve ideal outcomes which increase patient satisfaction.

Using the body’s own regenerative response, Ultherapy stimulates the growth of fresh, new collagen and tighter muscle tissue.  While some patients may see an initial effect immediately after treatment, the real results appear over 2-3 months as new collagen builds, gradually lifting, tightening, and reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles on the skin.

Ultherapy Glow Treatment Toronto-For The Neck

by

Ultherapy Glow Treatment Toronto

The neck can be a tricky area to treat due to the curves and high movement within the area.

Ultherapy Glow 1.5 can tighten and repair wrinkles on the neck.

The Ultherapy Glow 1.5 transducer has been designed to tighten the superficial layers of skin in more delicate areas such as the eyes, upper lip and the neck. It is ideal for treating fine lines and crepey skin.
Ultherapy utilizes focused ultrasound energy to heat the underlying fibro muscular tissues and create tiny controlled injuries. This prompts the body’s healing response to go into effect, which encourages collagen and elastin formation which results in skin tightening.
The treatment can take between one to two hours depending on the extent of the areas treated. There is minimal downtime with the Ultherapy Glow 1.5. Transducer and patients are able to go back to work the same day.
The results for Ultherapy Glow 1.5 can be seen immediately after but full results continue up to 3-4 months after the initial treatment.
As the aging process continues, patients can return as needed and have the area redone for cumulative results..
Some people have fat located underneath the muscle in the neck, which is usually a hereditary condition. Belkyra and other less invasive options can get to that deeper fat in the neck area to improve results. These other treatments work well when used in conjunction with the Ultherapy 1.5 Transducer to treat and make the neck area more appealing.
Please note that Ultherapy is the one and only FDA approved skin tightening and lifting treatment.
Ultherapy Glow 1.5 offers natural results, no one will know that you have had a treatment done, but they’ll definitely notice how great your neck looks!
Visit our website at www.lastinglooks.ca/ultherapy-toronto for more information on Ultherapy 1.5 or visit Lasting Looks Clinic in Toronto to give your neck an uplift with Ultherapy Glow 1.5.
