Consultation: The doctor will discuss your concerns, assess your skin, and determine if you’re a candidate for Ultherapy Prime.
Preparation: No special preparations or skincare regimens are needed before the procedure.
Comfort: The doctor may recommend or prescribe pain medication to enhance your comfort during treatment.
The doctor will cleanse your skin, apply ultrasound gel, and use a smooth applicator to deliver concentrated ultrasound energy to the optimal depth, initiating the collagen-building cycle. You’ll feel small amounts of energy being released, which signals the treatment’s effectiveness. The level of comfort varies, typically lasting only while energy is transmitted.
Treatment duration depends on the area: 60-90 minutes for the face and neck, and about 30 minutes for the chest.
There’s minimal downtime with Ultherapy Prime, and most people can resume normal activities immediately. Some initial redness, slight swelling, tingling, or tenderness may occur but are typically mild and temporary.
Our experienced doctors will recommend the best treatment for your unique concerns.
Our clinic ensures a comfortable treatment by using one or a combination of oral painkillers, numbing cream, targeted numbing injections, and cooling techniques.

Once ultrasound energy is administered, you will feel small amounts of energy are deposited at specific depths underneath the skin, stimulating the collagen-building process. Comfort levels vary from person to person, but the sensation only lasts while the energy of the ultrasound is delivered.
Your comfort is important to us and we ensure this by using one or a combination of oral painkillers, numbing cream, targeted numbing injections, and cooling techniques.
Results typically become noticeable two to three months after the procedure, as the collagen production process takes time. These visible effects can last for 12-18 months, depending on the individual’s collagen production. Future touch-up treatments can help maintain and better manage the aging process.
Ulthrapy Prime is an FDA-cleared treatment with a proven safety record, marketed in over 80 countries and with more than 2 million treatments¹ performed globally. Additionally, ultrasound energy, the technology behind Ulthrapy Prime, has been utilized in medical practice for over 50 years.

Most patients need only one treatment; however, some may benefit from more than one treatment depending on how much skin laxity they have and the body’s own biological response to the ultrasound and collagen-building process.
Follow-up Ulthrapy Prime treatments each year may help to maintain results.
Collagen is a protein produced by the body that gives skin its youthfulness by keeping it firm and toned. As we age, collagen production decreases, and existing collagen degrades, leading to a loss of skin strength and elasticity.
Ulthrapy Prime uses microfocused ultrasound to create a thermal effect under the skin. This essentially jump-starts a process that produces fresh, new collagen.
Typically those in their 30s or older, who have mild to moderate skin laxity. Loose skin under the neck and under the chin, or lines and wrinkles on the chest are signals that you need Ulthrapy Prime.
While Ulthrapy Prime is not a replacement for surgical facial lift, this is great for someone who needs facial lift, yet not ready for or requires surgery.
Younger people who believe in preventive care, as well as those who want a comprehensive aesthetic maintenance alternative will need Ulthrapy Prime.
When you stop treatments, you will not look more saggy than before. In fact, you will look better than someone of the same age who has not done any treatments.
With age, gravity and cumulative UV exposure, our skin will certainly become more saggy. Making skin tightening treatments a routine will slow down the process of sagging.
So you will not suddenly look more saggy if you decide to stop. But you will look better than someone of your age who has neglected their skin in the time that you have done skin tightening treatments. This is because your skin would have more collagen and elastin due to the treatments.
From our late 20s, our skin starts to lose collagen and elastin.
This also means most people start to look more saggy, especially for ladies and after childbirth. By starting treatments early, we start to bank in more collagen to the skin via skin tightening treatments.
Starting once you notice sagginess will go a long way in preventing and treating saggy skin.
This is up to 600 shots which is sufficient for either face (excluding jawline and double chin) or neck (including jawline and double chin). Treatment will be customised based on your concerns.
Ulthrapy Prime treatment costs vary from clinic to clinic due to factors such as the number of lines required. Book a consultation with our experienced doctors to experience the SL difference.
