As you age, you might find yourself missing the tight, fresh-faced feeling you had when you were younger. While facelifts have long been a popular way to achieve a youthful appearance, they are invasive and require you to take downtime away from your normal life — something that’s very inconvenient for most people. Ultherapy® is a new treatment designed to give you similar results to a facelift, without the downsides that come with an invasive procedure. Mariposa Aesthetics & Laser Center offers Ultherapy® that OKC residents rely on — here’s what you need to know about this exciting treatment.
It Uses Ultrasound Technology
People love Ultherapy® because it is completely non-invasive — it uses ultrasound technology to stimulate the production of collagen in the foundation layers of your skin. Collagen is a natural protein that our body produces, and it results in healthy, youthful-looking skin. However, our skin tends to produce less of it as we get older, which is why this stimulating treatment can have such dramatic results. A little bit of redness and swelling may occur directly after the treatment, but generally side effects are very minimal.
It Looks Natural
Another reason Ultherapy® in OKC is becoming very popular as an alternative to a facelift is because the results are very natural — it doesn’t look like you’ve had work done. You can decide where you want to have the treatment done — it can be applied to your entire face and neck, but our specialist will work with you to determine which treatment zone is going to be most appropriate. Everyone responds to the treatment differently — some people see results right away, but it usually takes some time for the collagen to fully develop.
You Only Need One Treatment
To start seeing results, you only need one treatment. Treatments last for 90 minutes at most, so you don’t even need to take a full day off to get one done if you have a busy schedule. The results can last for well over a year, sometimes even longer. However, if you want to maintain the initial results, you may want to do touch-up treatments regularly. These do not take as long as the initial treatment.
If you want the results of a facelift without the invasive procedure, consider Ultherapy®. A wide range of people can benefit from Ultherapy®. Visit the expert team at Mariposa Aesthetics & Laser Center in OKC to learn more about Ultherapy®. Contact us today to schedule your consultation!
