Ultherapy® is the gold standard in non-invasive skin tightening, utilizing FDA-cleared microfocused ultrasound energy to lift and firm the skin. Designed for minimal downtime, it’s an ideal option for addressing skin laxity and restoring a youthful, refreshed appearance without the need for surgery.
At H-MD Medical Spa in Oklahoma City and Tulsa, Ultherapy® is a great choice when you want a visible lift on the face, neck, and chest but you can’t take a long break to recover. Using real-time ultrasound imaging, our providers customize your treatment to deliver energy exactly where it lifts most – bypassing the surface to reach deep tissue layers. You’ll get a refreshed, more radiant look as your body’s own collagen rebuilds, with a downtime level that fits seamlessly into real life.
Ultherapy® works by delivering focused ultrasound energy to the same foundational tissue layers (SMAS) that are typically addressed in a surgical facelift. We focus on zones where lifting and tightening will create a firmer, more youthful overall look. Common treatment areas include the following:
H-MD’s Ultherapy® treatments offer the benefits of deep tissue tightening with a recovery time that fits your schedule. Our providers customize each session to your unique anatomy, delivering real improvement in skin laxity without weeks of downtime. Curious about how Ultherapy® compares to other treatments? We’ve answered your questions below.
Ultherapy® is ideal for lifting and firming the brow area, tightening sagging skin under the chin and on the neck, smoothing fine lines and wrinkles on the chest, and improving mild to moderate skin laxity. (Please note: It does not treat severe skin sagging that requires surgical intervention or major volume loss in the cheeks or temples).
Ultherapy® uses microfocused ultrasound energy to safely bypass the skin’s surface and reach depths of up to 4.5mm. This heats the deep support structures of the face, triggering neocollagenesis – a natural response that strengthens existing collagen and stimulates the production of fresh, new collagen fibers.
Lasers generally use light energy to treat the surface of the skin for texture and pigment issues. Ultherapy® uses ultrasound energy to treat the deep foundational layers of the skin, providing a significant lift that lasers simply cannot achieve.
You may notice some immediate contraction of the skin, but significant improvements in skin firmness and lifting are typically visible at three months, with results continuing to improve for up to six months. Results typically last between 12 to 18 months, with many clients noticing benefits for up to two years.
While sensations vary by individual, most clients describe a feeling of temporary warmth or a light prickly sensation, indicating the energy is reaching the deep tissue where it is most effective. We can provide topical numbing agents and adjust settings to ensure your treatment is as comfortable as possible.
There is typically no downtime, so you can return to normal routines right away. Because Ultherapy® does not damage the surface of the skin, you can even apply makeup immediately following your appointment.
Your visit begins with a detailed consultation and skin assessment. Using See-and-Treat™ ultrasound visualization, we evaluate tissue depth and laxity to guide your plan precisely. The area is cleansed, and ultrasound gel is applied for energy transfer. As the applicator moves, focused ultrasound is delivered at targeted depths. Most clients feel brief warmth or tingling, indicating collagen stimulation has begun. You can return to your normal routine immediately, as results build gradually over the next three to six months.
At H-MD Medical Spa, we believe in a customized approach to facial rejuvenation. Our experienced providers utilize Ultherapy’s advanced real-time imaging to see exactly where the energy is being delivered, ensuring maximum safety and precision for your specific anatomy. We also specialize in comprehensive treatment plans; many of our clients choose to enhance their Ultherapy® results by pairing it with fillers to address volume loss, Botox® for surface-level expression lines, or DiamondGlow® to improve overall skin texture.
