Ultherapy
A Natural-Looking Lift. Without Surgery.
Ultherapy uses focused ultrasound energy to support collagen production and lift skin in selected areas—without needles or incisions. Changes develop gradually, creating a non-surgical approach to firmer-looking skin.
At JT Aesthetic & Co., the starting point is a personalized consultation, not a predetermined treatment plan.
What is Ultherapy?
Ultrasound-Guided Treatment. Personalized to the Skin.
Ultherapy delivers focused ultrasound energy beneath the skin’s surface to stimulate the body’s collagen-building response.
Its real-time ultrasound imaging allows the provider to view tissue layers during treatment and guide energy delivery to the intended areas. This helps tailor treatment to the individual rather than relying on the same approach for every patient.
Benefits & treatment areas
Targeted Lifting and Smoother-Looking Skin.
Ultherapy’s U.S. FDA-cleared uses include lifting the brow, skin on the neck and beneath the chin, and improving lines and wrinkles on the décolletage.
For appropriately selected patients, treatment may help with:
- Brow lifting: Support a subtly lifted appearance through the brow area.
- Neck and under-chin firmness: Lift treated skin and improve the appearance of laxity.
- Décolletage rejuvenation: Soften the appearance of lines and wrinkles across the upper chest.
The appropriate treatment areas depend on medical suitability and the individual plan.
What to Expect
Consultation
JT considers skin condition, facial anatomy, medical history, previous treatments, goals, comfort level, and available recovery time before recommending treatment. The consultation also provides an opportunity to discuss expectations and alternatives.
Treatment
After the skin is cleansed, ultrasound gel is applied and the treatment applicator is placed against the skin. Ultrasound imaging helps guide the delivery of energy beneath the surface.
Heat, tingling, or discomfort may be felt during treatment. Sensations vary, and comfort measures should be discussed beforehand.
Recovery
Many patients can resume usual activities after treatment. However, redness, swelling, tingling, or tenderness may occur, so minimal downtime does not mean an absence of side effects.
Your provider will explain aftercare and what to expect during recovery.
Results
Gradual Improvement. Individual Results.
Visible changes generally develop over two to three months as the collagen-building response progresses.
The amount of improvement and its duration vary. Some patients may benefit from one treatment, while additional treatment or maintenance may be recommended based on the response and ongoing goals. A specific degree of lifting or duration cannot be guaranteed.
The JT approach
The Right Treatment Begins With Honest Guidance.
JT focuses on natural-looking rejuvenation and recommendations that make sense for the individual.
That means considering whether Ultherapy addresses the main concern—not simply recommending it because it is available. Another treatment, a staged combination plan, or no treatment may be more appropriate.
The goal is thoughtful improvement without unnecessary intervention.
Frequently Asked Questions
No. Ultherapy can provide non-surgical lifting for suitable patients, but it does not reproduce the results of a surgical facelift. Expectations should reflect the degree of skin laxity and the treatment’s limitations.
Heat, tingling, and discomfort can occur as energy is delivered. Comfort varies by person and treatment area. Your provider will discuss options for managing the treatment experience.
There is no universal schedule. Some patients benefit from a single treatment, while others may need additional sessions or maintenance. Your provider will recommend a plan based on the assessment and response.
No. Results can be long-lasting, but their duration varies and natural aging continues. Follow-up helps determine whether further treatment is appropriate.
No. It may be appropriate for selected patients with mild-to-moderate skin laxity, but medical history, skin condition, and expectations must be assessed. More significant laxity may require a different approach.
Safety & Eligibility
Ultherapy is a medical treatment and is not risk-free. Reported side effects include redness, swelling, pain, and temporary nerve effects. Your provider will review treatment-specific risks, contraindications, alternatives, and aftercare before proceeding.
