Ultherapy

One of the reasons our patients love Ultherapy® is that it is a “lunch-time” treatment that requires no downtime, while providing noticeable results. You can get back to your normal routine in a New York City minute.

The cost of Ultherapy® depends on the area being treated. Since the exact cost can be different in each individual case, it is better you schedule a personal consultation with Dr. Jennifer Levine for a specific quote tailored for you.

The Ultherapy® treatment uses tried-and-true ultrasound technology, which has received FDA clearance for use in this new type of medical procedure.

Ultherapy® deposits focused ultrasound energy to the deep layers of the skin to stimulate the body’s creation of new collagen. As a result, skin will begin to lift and tone over time*.

What does collagen do? How does Ultherapy® stimulate the creation of collagen? Collagen is a natural protein that gives skin a youthful appearance by keeping it firmed, toned and elastic.

As we age, collagen loses its elasticity and its ability to stand up to the effects of gravity that pull the skin downward. Ultherapy® is an uplifting treatment that jump-starts a repair process that produces new collagen.

Ideal clients for Ultherapy® treatments are individuals who have mild to moderate skin laxity on their face and neck, as well as wrinkles on their décolletage.

Other uses for Ultherapy® include tightening of the skin on the arms, elbows, and knees.

Yes! The best Ultherapy® treatment is one that produces ideal results for the patient. In some cases, that can be best achieved with a combination of treatments.

While this non-surgical skin-tightening treatment will also firm the skin, Dr. Levine often recommends combining it with injectables to replenish volume loss and create a more youthful contour. Schedule your Ultherapy consultation for more information.

Since the Ultherapy® facelift is non-surgical; our trained medical assistants can safely perform your procedure. If you choose, double board-certified facial plastic surgeon, Dr. Jennifer Levine, can perform Ultherapy® with the use of local anaesthesia for a more comfortable experience.

This non-surgical facelift can be performed in the comfort of our Upper East Side NYC office. If during your consultation for a non-surgical face lift, it is determined that you are a candidate for this procedure, we can schedule your Ultherapy® treatment at your earliest convenience. *Since there is minimal downtime, our patients can go right back to their lives without interruption.

The safety of the procedure was demonstrated through clinical studies that lead to an FDA clearance, and tens of thousands of non-surgical face lift treatments have been performed safely worldwide. In addition, ultrasound energy has a proven track record, with use in the field of medicine for more than 50 years.

Ultherapy is ideal for both, rejuvenation and pre-juvenation. This non-invasive treatment naturally promotes the production of collagen, which can start slowing down in your late 20’s, early 30’s. Whether you have mild to moderately sagging facial skin or want to prevent it, Ultherapy is the ideal uplifting treatment.

Our patients love Ultherapy because:

• There is no downtime. They can go right back to their normal routine after the treatment, CrossFit and all!
• Natural, gradual results. One of the drawbacks of getting a surgical cosmetic treatment such as a facelift is the instant results. Today, patients want to look their best selves without the appearance of having “work done”. Additionally, if you are unable to undergo a surgical procedure due to a medical restriction, you are likely able to have Ultherapy treatments.
• Less costly. An Ultherapy treatment is about ¼ of what a surgical facelift might cost you.

Many celebrities including Christie Brinkley, Jennifer Aniston and RHONJ star Jacqueline Laurita use Ultherapy to maintain their youthful looks.

In New York City, Ultherapy is dubbed the “lunchtime treatment” as you can get it done in as little as an hour and a half. Prior to scheduling your treatment, Dr. Levine will evaluate your skin laxity and texture to ensure that you are a good candidate for the treatment. In some cases, Dr. Levine may recommend a combination of treatments to give you the ideal results you are looking for.

At the start of the treatment, the treatment area will be cleansed and marked. Dr. Levine or the medical assistant administering the treatment will usually start with the central area of the neck and then move on to other regions.

Ultherapy is unique in the way it effectively tightens and tones your skin. The ultrasound face lift treatment wand transmits energy waves to the deep tissue of the skin, prompting it to produce collagen, which is responsible for keeping your skin tight and supple. Ultherapy is effective in reversing the slowdown of collagen production which starts in your late 20’s, early 30’s.
