Ultherapy is a safe and effective anti-ageing treatment, which offers an alternative to surgery and other facial treatments, including Botox, fillers and Endymed. Ultherapy offers the following benefits:

• Simple treatment process: only one session is required and the process is very simple; your practitioner will simply guide the ultrasound hand-piece over the surface of your skin to target specific layers of the skin and reach the optimum temperature for collagen production.
• No recovery time: no downtime is required following ultherapy, so you don’t have to worry about taking time off work.
• Very mild, temporary side-effects: side-effects following ultherapy treatment tend to be very mild and short-lived.
• Natural looking results: as ultherapy works by triggering a natural response in the body, the results tend to look very natural and subtle; there’s no need to worry about looking over-done.
• Safe: ultrasound has been used in medicine for decades and this treatment is approved for use by the US Food and Drug Administration.
• Single–session treatment: in the majority of cases, only one treatment session is required, so after just an hour and a half, you can look forward to beautiful results.

In comparison to facelift surgery, ultherapy is safer, there is a much lower risk of side-effects and complications and treatment only takes 60-90 minutes with no recovery time required. Surgery takes up to 5 hours and up to 12 weeks of recovery time is recommended. Surgery is also much more expensive than ultherapy, though the results do last longer.

Ultherapy produces longer-term results than fillers and Botox and the results tend to look more natural, as the effects are created by stimulating the body’s natural production of collagen. This treatment may also be preferable for those who have a fear of needles or injections.

Endymed is another option for those interested in facial treatment; this technique involves using radio frequency waves to stimulate the creation of new collagen. Treatment tends to be cheaper than ultherapy, but up to six sessions are required.
