ULTHERAPY Non-Surgical Face Lift
The new ULTHERA machine using high intensity focused ultrasound or HIFU for TISSUE TIGHTENING has arrived on our shores and of course, I voluntered to give it a try. I was the perfect candidate for it being 40-something with a little sag in the jowls and due for my second Thermage treatment this year. No fear felt, thinking it would be like a Thermage session with heat, the technician started with my under chin and jawline area. The sensation felt like little pins and needles scratching on my skin but overall it was pretty tolerable. Then we tried on some patients, and it turned out they felt more comfortable with Ultherapy then some of the other skin tightening modalities. 1 patient even fell asleep! Both patients felt they could see the effect on their lower face immediately. Now this is amazing as lower facial sagging and laxity is one of the most difficult problems to treat. Many treatments before this including Thermage still could not tackle this area very satisfactorily. So my interest in this new technology and treatment called ULTHERAPY is piqued.
Two days later, I could still feel the tenderness( or soreness) especially along my jawline. It even disturbed my sleep a little but, no pain no gain, right? In fact, I think I could actually 'feel'my collagen contracting (if there is such a thing) and the skin tightening up! Whatever it is, there's still hope for us without surgery........
We have conducted several Ulthera treatments since then and I must say, the results are pretty impressive. Most of our patients who underwent it saw the "lift" effect immediately after! The treatment was also tolerable and not very painful to them. In fact I think less people cringe at the discomfort then I see with mono polar RadioFrequency . Best for those above 35yrs old wanting to arrest the effects of gravity's downward pull and strenghten skin against sagging, this NO DOWNTIME procedure works on the deeper layer of facial skin which is the layer that holds everything UP!
I was also interviewed on the Bella show about skin aging and Ultherapy.

It's been almost 3months since my Ulthera treatment. First there was pain, then 4 weeks of soreness and numbness and now....I think my jowls are less and my slightly saggy chin skin is almost disspaeared. This equipment seems to give better results then thermage. If only we could do something about the pain during treatment, it would be wonderful.

Hi Doc, how much would treatment cost for eyelid lift with Ulthera?
Our V2LR laser handpiece is finally here. Had a revision session with Prof Zerbinatti in the clinic on 3rd Jan. Imagine, for those of us who wish to "rejuvenate" ourselves can do so now with ease and painlessly. Just make an appointment with the clinic, come in 30min earlier so a topical numbing cream can be applied, and have the procedure conducted and completed in 1/2 hr,tops. What will you get ? Well, internally the lasering will "puff"up the mucosa of the vaginal wall by collagen remodeling, as well as improve sensations. Externally the procedure can lighten the skin color, increase sensitivity as well tighten surrounding area. ALl these in just 3 sessions! Prof Zerbinatti claims that in his clinic this is currently the most popular procedure among women in their 30s and 40s. I am very excited about this procedure. I know a lot of women out there do not have any problems, and therefore do not require any surgical LVR but would like to just improve. Like everyhti...
Recently, I was browsing through some of my favorite Facebook groups for aesthetic providers a nd I noticed something alarming. There was a glut of posts from inexperienced injectors, asking for advice on how to get best results with dermal fillers. They werenāt sure whether common situations were normal and were even asking for advice on complications. For example, one injector was concerned that her patient was experiencing swelling in her lip immediately after her appointment: She didnāt have enough experience to know whether or not something had gone wrong. Or take this injector, who wasnāt sure whether the redness in her patient was normal: The answer is āprobably yesā, but a more experienced provider could have achieved much gentler results with a cannula and know if there's something more serious like a blood vessel compression has occured. A lso looks like she missed the right injection point a few times, which is not gre...
āWhatās happened to Charlotteās face!?ā If youāve been on Twitter or Reddit recently, youāve probably come across lots of comments like that... Itās a reference to the character Charlotte in Sex and the City . The series, which became a cultural icon 20 years ago, recently rebooted as ā And Just Like That...ā And while all the characters have aged, Charlotte looked more different than the others... Her face was much broader, her lips were strangely flat and her cheeks are unusually full. The actress, Kristin Davis, didnāt look quite like herself any more. Initially, commentators wondered whether sheād had plastic surgery. But it seems much more likely that sheās had dermal fillers - done badly. I know that this kind of āunnaturalā result is a great concern for many including my clients too. Fillers are there to help āplump upā areas of the face which have lost volume with age, āfill inā fine lines and wrinkle a nd give more definition to some o...
