How Wrinkles and Sagging Skin Form
To better understand how Ultherapy works, it’s important to first discuss the driving force behind the formation of wrinkles, and the sagging of facial and neck skin.
Our skin may look simple to the naked eye, but upon closer examination, it’s a very complex structure that protects our bodies by keeping out pathogens (like viruses and bacteria), protecting the loss of vital moisture by creating a physical barrier, and reducing the effects of UV radiation on your vital organs, among many other functions. And just like your heart, liver or lungs, the skin is a vital organ – in fact, it’s the largest organ of your body.
With time, however, your skin begins to lose its resiliency. The constant exposure to UV radiation, lack of proper moisture, gravity, and the gradual loss of collagen all manifest in the form of wrinkles and sagging skin.
The loss of collagen is one of the biggest causes of this problem. Collagen protein fibers are at the core of the skin’s support structure, creating a physical network that keeps the skin tight. As we age, however, the body produces less of this protein causing the skin to lose elasticity.
How Ultherapy Works
Ultherapy is a specialized treatment approach that uses ultrasound waves to stimulate the production of collagen by heating the skin.* Over time, this process causes the skin to create more collagen fibers, which strengthen the support network, and thus reduce wrinkles and tighten skin.*
Ultherapy is a very versatile option that can target a variety of issues including*:
