- How is it different from other procedures?

The production of new collagen may take time, so the results may take time too, around two to three months and sometimes six months as well. The process may take around 30 to 90 minutes on the basis of the area being treated and zero downtime later. It is also the only process that makes the use of ultrasound imaging which lets the experts to actually check the layers of tissue being focused on during the treatment and make sure that the energy is deposited just where it would be the most beneficial.

Ultherapy is an amazing option, but particularly for those who are reluctant to go for surgery and for those patients who would like to prolong the effects of cosmetic surgery.
- How is it different from laser treatment?
Ultherapy makes the use of sound energy which entails exceptional property that lets it to bypass the skin surface for treating the depths not aligned with any another non invasive cosmetic equipment.
