Ultherapy

What the Ultherapy brand adds to a HIFU quote: imaging, transducers and a higher price.

Deep-layer lift

Ultherapy is a branded micro-focused ultrasound treatment used for brow, chin and neck laxity. The device images the layer being treated. That is the practical difference from a generic HIFU machine, and it is why the quote is usually higher.

Prices are often broken into transducers and line counts. A “lower face” package at one clinic can be half the lines of a “lower face” package at another.

Downtime

Soreness along the jaw and cheekbone is common for days to a couple of weeks. Swelling is usually milder than after surgery and more noticeable than after a lunchtime injectable.

This is general information, not a medical recommendation. A registered doctor should decide whether a treatment is suitable for you.
