“If so, the staff here at A Younger You can help you FALL in love with your skin again! If your skin is showing brown spots, it’s often Hyperpigmentation. Hyperpigmentation is the name the healthcare professionals give to spots or patches of skin that have become darker than the surrounding area of skin. It occurs when the skin produces more melanin, which is the pigment that gives your skin its 

color. There are many types of hyperpigmentation and it affects people of all skin types. The main forms are age spots (brown/ sunspots), melasma, and PIH (post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation).  

Age spots are most commonly caused by years of sun exposure and not enough sun protection. Sun exposure accelerates the production of melanin and over time those age spots come to the surface. They often appear in areas that get the most sun, such as the face, shoulders, and chest. If you have exposed your skin to the sun without sun protection, chances are you have or will develop an age spot or two in your lifetime. 

Melasma is the form of hyperpigmentation usually caused by hormonal changes. Pregnancy, birth control pills, and hormone replacement therapy can all bring on melasma. It will most commonly 

appear on the face and is symmetrical, with matching patches on both sides of the face. The most common areas that are affected are cheeks, forehead, upper lip, bridge of nose, and often the neck. It’s also more commonly seen in women. Stress, thyroid disease, and sun exposure can also bring on or worsen melasma.

PIH or Post- Inflammatory Hyperpigmentation is pigment on the skin that follows an inflammatory wound. Acne, scrapes, cuts, sores, and rashes are all examples of inflammatory wounds. As the skin is healing it will produce too much melanin and leave behind discoloration. It can appear as different colors on the skin such as brown, purple, red, or white. Men and women equally get PIH and all skin types can develop it. Picking at acne or a wound can make this condition worse.

Overall – we have great news! All forms of hyperpigmentation are treatable and manageable! Avoiding the sun, wearing SPF daily, reapplying SPF often when you’re in the sun, and wearing a hat are all ways to prevent age spots, melasma, and PIH. Vitamin C, retinol, and hydroquinone are also great products to consider using to help improve hyperpigmentation. 

Here at A Younger You we offer quite a few different types of treatments to help with hyperpigmentation. These include microdermabrasions, chemical peels, laser treatments, and microneedling. Call one of our 

locations today and we can help you get on the right track to FALL in love with your skin again!” – Kristy Halverson

Who doesn’t want to: 

• Banish dry skin and create smoother and brighter skin
• Fade post-breakout dark or red marks
• Lighten brown spots and blotches
• Reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles and acne scars

Fall is here and winter is fast approaching! With this comes dry, dull looking skin. While our instincts are to apply more and more moisturizer, this typically does not solve the issue and may instead result in clogged pores and whiteheads (aka – milia). 

What we like to recommend and love to do are Chemical Peels! They provide so many 

benefits. The fall and winter season is a great time to receive a chemical peel and an even better time to start a series of peels.  By doing a series of peels, our skin is retrained to do what it is supposed to do; and that is cell turnover! By sloughing off dead skin cells; your skin is softer, brighter, younger looking, and hydrated! Peels also come with a bonus! The peel process results in collagen building and strengthens elastin fibers, which we can all benefit from! 

Life never seems to slow down, and we are busier than ever. If your upcoming schedule is filled with events, don’t fret. We have a very light or “date night” peel that will make you glow. On the other hand, if your schedule allows for a few low-key days allowing you to catch up on all the Netflix shows you never get to watch, our AYY Peel or VI Peel is an excellent choice. When determining your comprehensive treatment plan, A Younger You always takes into consideration your lifestyle as well as the goals you have for your skin.

Your busy schedule should not prevent you from having the healthy, beautiful skin you deserve, no matter what the season. Peels are an excellent tool you have at your fingertips for great looking skin. 

Right now through the end of October, you can buy one peel and get another peel for 1/2f off. Just contact us today and schedule a peel. We’ll discuss together which peel is best suited for your skin and your lifestyle!  – Carol Myers

Have your eyelashes thinned out since you were a teenager? Are you losing more eyelashes than before? Does the shortness of your eyelashes bother you? If so, you may be a good candidate for Latisse at A Younger You Medical Spa in Burlington, WI.

FAQs about Latisse

How Long Does Latisse Last?

When you take the prescription medicine as directed, you will see results for as long as you continue to take it. If you don’t take the medication as prescribed, you might only observe the full effects of the treatment for a couple of months. The upper eyelashes will continue to fall out after they have reached the end of the growth phase.

If you stop taking Latisse, eventually you will have to wear eye makeup again – either mascara or fake lashes. However, there are a few key things to consider.

Once you achieve the look you desire, the medication may not need to be applied every day to maintain its effects. In addition, how long the results last after you stop using the medication depends on what brought about your inadequate lashes in the first place.

How Does This Treatment Work?

Bimatoprost, the main ingredient in this medication, extends the length of time that your eyelashes spend in growth phase. The growth cycle of your eyelashes consists of several stages, like the growth cycle of other hairs on your body. You grow your hair when it is in the anagen phase, also known as the growth phase.

You won’t be able to achieve the kind of look you want if the degree of growth is too short during the anagen phase. Catagen is the next step in the growth process. In this stage, the hair follicles shrink and detach from the dermal papilla.

The next phase is telogen, or resting, which lasts about three months. At any given time, between 10 and 15 percent of your hairs are in this phase. There is then the exogen phase, during which the old hair falls out and new hair grows in its place.

How Long Does it Take to See Results?

It usually takes 60 days for the first results of the treatment to become apparent. Following this, the final results of the treatment take three to four months to appear. However, you should keep in mind that the effects of the treatment will last only for a couple of months after you stop taking it.

How Hard Is it to Use This Medication?

It is very easy to apply this drug. You’ll find clear, simple instructions on the bottle that comes with your medication. In brief, apply the medication both above and below your upper lash line by using a clean, sterile applicator brush and a drop of the medication. Use it as you would eyeliner!

When Should I Apply the Medication?

After your morning face wash, apply this medication. You can also apply this medication at night by washing your face before you apply it and leaving it on for 30 minutes before you lie down. This will allow the medication to dry properly before you sleep. If you lie down right after applying the medication, some of it may drip off and rub into your skin by accident, which is why it’s important to make sure it is completely dry.

Am I a Good Candidate for Latisse?

Patients with healthy eyes and no active infections and concerns about sparse top eyelashes may be good candidates for this medication. We’ll meet with you to talk about your concerns and help you understand if you are a good candidate.

How Long Does One Bottle  Last?

In general, a 5ml bottle can last between four and eight months. There are 112 doses in 5 milliliters. You will likely apply this daily for 16 weeks, or almost 4 months. In some cases, the medication may only need to be applied every day during the initiation phase. The medication may also only need to be applied every other day during the maintenance phase.

If I Take This Medication, Can I Wear Mascara?

Yes! Please remember that you must give your medication time to dry so it won’t be rubbed away. Because of this, it’s important for you to apply it a half-hour before applying any cosmetics, including eye shadow, eyeliner, and mascara.

Can I Purchase Latisse Over the Counter?

No. You can only get this powerful medication by prescription. To put it simply, you must see a medical professional to discuss your case and determine whether the treatment would be effective and safe for you.

This medication can effectively treat thin lashes caused by madarosis, a common side effect of chemotherapy. In most cases, this medication will be prescribed if your eyes and eyelids are in good shape.

If you are ready to have smooth skin that is finally free of unwanted hair, here at A Younger You in Burlington, WI, we can help!

How Many Laser Hair Removal Treatments Are Needed?

Treatable Areas

There are a number of areas that can benefit from this treatment. However, if you do have another area of concern that is not mentioned, please do not hesitate to bring that up with our staff. They will be able to let you know if that area can also benefit from treatment.

The Legs

This is, hands down, the most popular area of treatment. Whether you want hair removed from the tops of your legs or all over, this treatment can help. Dealing with unwanted hair on the legs is probably the biggest burden because of the surface area. If you are sick of constantly waxing and shaving your legs, this treatment can give you smooth skin and you’ll never again have to worry about other forms of hair removal.

Underarms

This area is prone to irritation and razor burn more than other areas which make other means of hair removal particularly frustrating under the arms. With this treatment, you can have smooth underarms and never have to deal with the discomfort of irritation or razor burn again.

The Arms

There are a number of people who struggle with thick hair on their arms. Some have tried to shave it only for it to come back thicker and even harder to deal with. This treatment can successfully remove any unwanted hair from the arms without any pain!

The Bikini Area

This is another region where the removal of unwanted hair can cause irritation that can not only look bad but can also be uncomfortable. This treatment will take care of that unwanted hair so you won’t have to race to shave or wax before any event again. And, you won’t have to deal with irritation in this region anymore!

The Upper Lip

This area can also get irritated and in many cases, the hair in this region can grow back thicker. Dealing with upper lip hair can be frustrating but with this treatment, you won’t have to worry about it ever again.

The Back

Excessive back hair can be embarrassing for many people and other methods of removing the hair can be tricky given the location. This treatment can remove all that unwanted hair on the back and give you back your confidence to be ready for anything.

Commonly Asked Questions

1. Does It Hurt?

No, there is no pain associated with this treatment option. Unlike waxing that is uncomfortable or shaving that can cause irritation, this treatment simply works to stop the hair growth at the source. The laser that is used concentrates only on the hair follicle and ignores the surrounding skin so there is no worry about pain!

If you’re on the search for a treatment that can reduce the appearance of wrinkles without surgery, then you’re in luck. At A Younger You Medical Spa in Burlington, WI we believe that Dysport is an ideal solution to help women and men enjoy a younger-looking appearance. This safe and effective neuromodulator is a simple, safe, and effective option to smooth away your wrinkles and fine lines.

How Can Dysport Help You Get Rid of Frown Lines?

Dysport is a neuromodulator injectable that is used to erase fine lines and wrinkles on your forehead and other areas of the face. The thinner consistency of this neuromodulator makes it a better option for those who want to treat larger areas since the solution spreads more easily than other neuromodulators. You can enjoy smoother, natural-looking skin and an overall more youthful look with a single simple treatment.

But what causes wrinkles? In general, frown lines and other wrinkles develop over time when repeated muscle movements shift lax skin on the face. Eventually, the creases formed by your facial expressions will create divots in the skin that deepen into wrinkles that can be difficult to smooth away.

Why Do Neuromodulators Work?

This is a neuromodulator treatment, which is a type of injectable that is designed to reduce muscle activity temporarily. A neuromodulator works by blocking the messages between motor nerves and facial muscles. While neurotransmitters ordinarily send messages that direct muscles to contract, a neuromodulator prevents those messages from being received by the muscle.

This gives the muscle time to rest and relax and time for your skin to stop creasing as a result of repeated facial movements. Temporarily freezing these muscles will smooth away the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, particularly on areas of the face where dermal fillers can’t be used.

When Will You See Results?

One of the neat things about neuromodulator treatments is how quickly you will be able to see your desired results. Usually, you can see the effects of this treatment within one to two days, although some patients may notice results immediately. Your full results will be noticeable about a week after your treatment.

How Long Do Results Last?

Neuromodulator treatments have temporary effects. Most of the time, you can expect your results to last for about six months. In general, the longevity of your results will depend on how quickly your body metabolizes the injectable, so there are certain factors you will need to be aware of. For example, excessive exercise or living a very active lifestyle will make your body metabolize the treatment more quickly, so your results may only last closer to four months rather than six. Other things like stress and lifestyle habits may make your results dissipate more quickly.

What Is It Like When Your Results Wear Off?

Your results will wear off gradually, which is an advantage when it comes to determining how frequently you need your treatments. After several months, you will notice that small lines and wrinkles are starting to return as the neuromodulator wears off. At that time, it’s best to schedule another round of treatment.

What’s Your Ideal Treatment Frequency?

Although your results will last for about six months, it’s ideal to have your treatments once every three to four months. This frequency will prevent your skin from returning to your baseline, so this is the best method to achieve consistently youthful-looking results. Over time, because each treatment builds on the previous treatment, you will be able to stretch the time between your appointments.

How Old Should You Be for This Treatment?

There isn’t any “best” age for this treatment because everyone ages at slightly different rates depending on skin tone, skin type, genetics, and lifestyle habits. It’s common for people in their late 20s and early 30s to use this treatment, as well as people who are in their 40s and 50s. However, one thing to know about this treatment is that it’s ideal for staving off the visible signs of aging. The earlier you use this treatment, the more effective it will be for preventing fine lines and wrinkles from worsening or developing.

Will You Have Before and After Guidelines To Follow?

Yes, you will need to follow a few preparation and aftercare guidelines so your results can develop as intended. Before your treatment, you should be:

• Avoiding alcohol
• Stopping NSAIDs
• Putting away cigarettes
• Wearing daily sunscreen

After your treatment, you should be:

• Staying out of the sun
• Keeping hands away from the treatment site
• Avoiding cigarettes, alcohol, and strenuous exercise

Are You a Candidate?

People who do not have a history of a severe allergic reaction, allergies to botulinum toxin, and who are not currently pregnant or breastfeeding make the best candidates for this treatment. Because this treatment is non-invasive and FDA-approved, it is considered a safe treatment for most people. If you want to minimize the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles – both new and old – then you are likely a good candidate for this treatment.

Disappear Your Wrinkles With Dysport

When all the OTC ointments and creams aren’t enough to reduce your wrinkles, it’s time to find a treatment that will deliver tangible results. Dysport is an ideal treatment for those who have moderate signs of aging. Contact A Younger You Medical Spa in Burlington, WI to schedule your consultation today. 

Sometimes those last couple pounds just won’t seem to come off no matter what you do. And, oftentimes, the shape of certain areas isn’t exactly as contoured as many would like. With CoolSculpting, you can ditch that excess fat and get the shape you want without any kind of surgery or downtime. If this sounds like something you might want to try, at A Younger You in Burlington, WI, we can help!

How Many Sessions Do CoolSculpting You Need?

Typically most people are satisfied with their results after only a single CoolSculpting session. However, this may vary from person to person. Some people may want to have an additional treatment to get the shape they want and perhaps even shed a couple more pounds. You do have to wait for a period of time in between treatments to ensure that the body has properly processed the dead fat cells.

Treatable Areas

The Stomach

This is probably the most popular region that this treatment is used on. Excess fat cells in the stomach area are relatively common and those last couple of pounds can be hard to shake. And, even when you do get rid of those extra pounds, sometimes the shape of the area isn’t what you would like it to be. With this treatment, you can ditch that extra weight and have a nice contour added to this region.

The Upper Arms

Upper arm weight can also be pesky to get rid of. This treatment can help you get rid of that extra weight in the upper arm area as well as add some contour to the area to give the appearance of more muscle tone. This can be done very quickly and painlessly.

The Thighs

The thighs are another area of concern for many.  This treatment can help you get rid of any extra fat cells in this area and safely freeze them away, giving you the look you want.

The Back

“Love handles” and the back area can be one of the most difficult areas to rid of excess fat cells. This region is also an area of concern for many people. This treatment can help you shed that extra weight and ditch the love handles, giving you a much more shapely figure.

The Chin & Neck Area

A “double chin” is another issue that many people have and getting rid of extra fat cells in this area can be a real chore. This treatment can safely freeze away that “double chin”, add contour and give you the look you want all without any kind of surgery or downtime!

Frequently Asked Questions

1. Does It Hurt?

No, this is not a treatment that is going to cause pain at all. You may feel a bit of cold as soon as your treatment session begins but that feeling quickly passes. A lot of people compare this type of treatment to having a massage of sorts. You do not have to be concerned about pain at all!

2. Is This Treatment Option Safe?

Yes, this kind of treatment is perfectly safe. The device is used on the surface of the skin, essentially freezing away excess fat cells in that region. The body then expels the dead, excess cells through natural bodily processes. You do not have to be worried about your safety when it comes to this kind of treatment.

3. How Do I Know if It’s Right for Me?

This treatment option is for any person who wants to shed extra fat cells in their stomach area, the upper arms, the thighs, the back, and the chin region.

Aging happens, but you now have a say in how it affects your appearance, thanks to dermal fillers. At our office, we are proud to offer different fillers from the Restylane collection. If you want to begin an anti-aging treatment with Restylane, contact the experts at A Younger You Medical Spa in Burlington, WI, and we will be happy to develop a treatment plan that meets all of your aesthetic goals.

How Long Do Restylane Results Last?

Dermal fillers provide long-lasting results, and the Restylane collection is no different. Each of the fillers in this collection lasts for a different amount of time, but most provide results that last for a year or longer, some even up to three years. When you choose one of these fillers, we’re completely convinced that the results will exceed your expectations.

The Different Fillers

This collection of dermal fillers includes several different hyaluronic-acid-based formulations that are designed to target and treat wrinkles and create subtle enhancements in your appearance. They can also add volume to hands to restore youth and hide bony protrusions or visible veins.

Refyne

Refyne is a formulation that treats laugh lines by restoring volume beneath the surface of the skin. It treats nasolabial folds and marionette lines, helping you look more youthful. The benefit of Refyne is that it doesn’t change the way the rest of your face moves; it simply adds volume to the area.

Silk

Silk is used to augment the lips. Not only does it enhance the lips, increasing both their size and fullness, but it also smoothes vertical mouth wrinkles known as lipstick lines. Once injected with the product, your results will last anywhere from six to twelve months.

Lyft

Lyft treats volume loss in the cheeks. It is a versatile filler because it can also treat and correct nasolabial folds that run from the outer corner of the nose to the outer corners of the mouth, as well as the hands. It is made with a thicker gel that contains larger particles so that it can fill deep wrinkles. Results last anywhere from six to eighteen months total.

Kysse

Kysse is a lip filler that allows for flexible movement and volume that looks natural, not contrived or obvious. Once injected with Kysse, results can last anywhere from one to three years. When you choose Kysse, you won’t have to worry about losing your ability to move your lips naturally, which is why many people choose this lip filler over others of its kind.

Defyne

Defyne addresses deeper laugh lines like the marionette lines that form around the chin, as well as deeper nasolabial folds that develop as a result of the aging process and volume loss. It provides natural-looking results that last up to twelve months with optimal treatment.

Restylane FAQ’s

What Happens During a Treatment?

Patients love Restylane products and part of the reason is that the creators made the injection process as painless as possible. Each of the fillers includes lidocaine, a mild numbing agent that keeps you comfortable during and after your injection.

During treatment, your injector will clean your skin and then carefully administer the injections with a very thin needle. In less than 60 minutes, your injection will be complete and you will be free to go about your day.

Is There Any Downtime?

You won’t have to plan around any downtime following your appointment. You can go back to work or resume your normal daily activities. You should avoid excess heat, sun exposure, and intense exercise for at least 24 hours post-treatment. Your injector will provide you with all of the necessary instructions on how to care for your skin post-treatment during your appointment.

How Long Does It Take to See Results?

The benefit of these dermal fillers is that the results are fast-lasting. You will see immediate results after one Restylane treatment. Once the hyaluronic-acid based gel is injected below the surface of your skin, it will fill in your wrinkles and lines and create an instant smoothing effect. Your results will continue to improve and you’ll see your best results by two weeks post-treatment.

Am I a Candidate?

If you are a healthy adult who wants to treat the signs of aging on your face that have resulted from volume loss or enhance your lips, you are most likely a candidate who will benefit from this treatment. During your initial consultation, we’ll discuss your health history, any experience you’ve had with cosmetic injectables, and make sure that this treatment is a safe option for you.

• Those who are allergic to the gram-positive bacterial proteins in the fillers
• Those with bleeding disorders
• Those who are prone to bleeding

There is a simple way to improve your skin without undergoing invasive treatments that require extensive amounts of downtime. Visit us at A Younger You Medical Spa in Burlington, WI, where we offer different effective chemical peel for a variety of skincare needs. Our treatments rejuvenate the skin, help improve problematic skin conditions and keep your skin as healthy as possible. Once you experience one of our peels, you will be counting down the days until your next appointment.

What Are the Benefits of Getting Chemical Peels?

One of the simplest and most noninvasive ways to improve your skin is by implementing chemical peels into your skincare routine. These peels can transform your skin and improve problematic skin conditions you may have. Peels take skincare to the next level and help improve the skin in a way that your daily at-home routine is unable to. They benefit the skin in many ways, including:

• Improving the overall appearance of the skin
• Helping those with acne-prone skin
• Removing sunspots
• Reducing and reversing the signs of aging
• Improving the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles

What Are Chemical Peels?

Chemical peels are a form of chemical exfoliation. They exfoliate the skin by dissolving the top layer and getting rid of the dead skin cells to reveal a fresh, youthful-looking layer beneath. Unlike physical exfoliants, which use tangible components to exfoliate the skin, you cannot see chemical exfoliation take place, but it does exfoliate the skin through the use of acids, typically AHA’s and BHA’s, as well as other nutrient-rich ingredients.

Our Chemical Peels

At A Younger You Medical Spa, we offer two different kinds of peels: the PCA Skin Peel and the VI Peel. The PCA Skin Peel is a gentle, corrective peel that will help your skin look fresh, youthful, and rejuvenated. It contains nutrient-rich ingredients that can help treat and improve:

• Acne blemishes
• Sun damage
• Fine lines and wrinkles
• Oily and congested skin

We also offer VI Peels, which are some of the most popular peels on the beauty market today. These peels are so popular because they work. They can also be customized to meet the needs of every different skin type and tone. They can help:

• Improve the appearance of acne scars
• Clear active acne blemishes
• Reduce the appearance of enlarged pores
• Help improve the appearance of hyperpigmentation
• Improve the overall health of the skin

What Kind of Results Can I Expect?

If you’ve never experienced a chemical peel, you may have some preconceived notions about how your skin will look and feel post-treatment. It’s important to note that there are varying peel strengths and not every peel will result in downtime or red skin. Some peels are extremely gentle yet still deliver dramatic results. During your consultation, a skincare expert will tell you exactly what you can expect following your customized treatment.

Will I Peel?

Contrary to popular opinion, not every peel causes your skin to peel. As a general rule of thumb, the stronger the peel, the more likely it is you’ll experience peeling. The strength of your peel will be determined by your needs and your skin type. Some skin types simply cannot handle strong peels as well as others can, which is why it is important to undergo a consultation pre-treatment to determine which is best for your skin.

Is There Any Downtime?

You won’t have any significant amount of downtime following your treatment. You will, however, need to be mindful of the fact that a chemical peel exposes a fresh, new layer of skin. It looks more youthful, but it is also more vulnerable to the effects of the elements. For that reason, you need to avoid excess sun exposure following your treatment. If you do go into the sun, be sure to wear high-quality sunscreen as well as a hat and sunglasses for extra protection.

Who Is a Candidate for Chemical peel Treatment?

Those who want to treat problematic skin conditions like acne, sunspots, discoloration, or lines and wrinkles are good candidates for this skincare treatment. However, you don’t have to have a problematic skin condition to qualify as a candidate for a peel. If you have healthy skin but want to take your skincare to the next level and improve its overall appearance, you are most likely a candidate for a peel.

Before your treatment, you will be able to consult with one of our skincare experts who will help determine your skin type. Then, we will help determine which of our peels is best for your needs and will develop a customized treatment plan for your skin so that you can experience all of the benefits that our peels have to offer.

Thanks to revolutionary anti-aging treatments, you don’t need to undergo a facelift or surgery to improve the appearance of sagging skin. However you may have concerns about these new treatments, in particular, whether you might experience any pain or discomfort. At A Younger You Medical Spa in Burlington, WI, we are happy to say that out treatments such as ultherapy are an excellent way to help address sagging, wrinkled skin, with as little discomfort as possible.

How Painful Is Ultherapy?

One of the most common myths floating around the beauty world is that ultherapy is painful. Honestly, we’re not convinced that any of the rumor-mongers have ever even had the treatment. Not only is ultherapy a procedure with minimal discomfort, but additionally, we will do everything in our power to keep you as comfortable as possible during the entire treatment.

Ultherapy and the Pain Scale

On a scale from one to ten, when asked, “How painful is ultherapy?”, we can easily rate it with confidence as a low-pain treatment. This treatment is not painful, but you may experience a warm sensation beneath the surface of the skin due to collagen stimulation. However, before your treatment, we will apply a topical numbing cream to completely remove any chances of discomfort. You will be able to lay back and relax as the ultrasound technology performs its job.

What Is Ultherapy?

Ultherapy is the only FDA-approved treatment that improves the appearance of sagging skin from the face to chest. Unlike lasers, which address the signs of aging through light energy, ultherapy utilizes sound energy through ultrasound technology to view and target the deepest layers of the skin.

How Does It Work?

When the ultrasound wand is placed onto the area of treatment, your technician will be able to view digital images of the layers of your skin on a screen. This allows for the most exact and precise ability to target the signs of aging in specific locations. When the ultrasound wand makes contact with the surface of the skin, sound energy reaches into the deepest layers of the skin. This creates minute disruptions in your tissues, which in turn stimulates your cells to produce collagen.

What Does It Treat?

This treatment specifically targets sagging skin on the face, specifically in the eyebrow region, beneath the chin, and on the neck, as well as fine lines and wrinkles that form in the chest region, also commonly referred to as the décolletage. The production of collagen in these areas leads to smoother, more elastic, and younger looking skin.

How Many Treatments Will I Need?

Most patients only require one treatment to reach their goals. However, each person has a different goal and a different problem area that they want to address. During your consultation, we will be able to evaluate your goals and set up the best treatment plan based on your needs.

When Will I See Results?

Some patients notice results immediately following their ultherapy treatment. Others typically begin to see their results within two to three months post-treatment. Collagen production takes time, but once your results begin to appear, you will love what you see.

The Benefits of Ultherapy

It’s Powerful

Ultherapy targets the deepest layers of the skin in a way that laser treatments cannot. Its use of sound energy allows it to reach deeper than lasers can and therefore has a more powerful effect on the skin.

It’s Safe

Ultherapy is the only FDA-approved treatment of its kind to safely lift and improve sagging skin. It has been cleared and established as a safe treatment for all skin types.

It’s Long-Lasting

Once you achieve your desired results, you will be able to enjoy them for up to two years. When you begin to notice that your results are starting to disappear, you can simply return for a follow-up treatment and your results will return.

It’s Not Painful

Contrary to what you may have heard, the answer to the question, “How painful is ultherapy?” is that it isn’t painful. You’ll be able to enjoy your treatment without having to worry about pain, knowing that we have preplanned and taken every measure imaginable to ensure your maximum comfort.

Who Is a Candidate?

Have you begun to notice skin laxity, also known as sagging, around your eyebrows, beneath your chin, on your neck, or your chest? Are you frustrated with sagging skin but don’t want to commit to a surgical facelift? Do you want a minimally invasive treatment without any downtime that will get you results? If you can answer yes to any of these questions, you are a candidate for this treatment.

Consultations Matter

A consultation is an important step in the ultherapy treatment process. During your initial consultation, we will discuss your health history, skin concerns, aesthetic goals, and evaluate whether this treatment will give you the exact results you’re hoping for. We will also be able to further assure you regarding any additional concerns you have, and answer your questions. Once your consultation is complete, you will be that much closer to achieving lifted, youthful skin.
