Procedure at a glance
What is Ultherapy Prime?
Ultherapy Prime is a non-invasive lifting procedure that uses real-time ultrasound imaging while focused ultrasound energy is delivered at depths up to 4.5 mm. It is used for lax cheeks, jawline definition, and firmness around the eyes and neck, with a session taking about 30 minutes.
What this procedure can address
A focused procedure for the concern you want to change.
Premium ultrasound lifting planned with a live view beneath the skin
Lifts heavy cheeks and jowls
Targets lax tissue beneath the surface to refine weight around the cheeks and mouth.
Defines the jawline
Tightens the lower-face support structure so the boundary between jaw and neck can appear cleaner.
Treats delicate eye and brow areas
Selects an appropriate depth for thinner areas where subtle lifting can refresh a heavy-looking expression.
Supports collagen remodeling
Encourages a renewal response at the thermal points to improve firmness over the following months.
About the procedure
A lifting plan guided by what lies beneath
Skin thickness, fat distribution, and the layer where laxity begins vary from one person and facial area to another. Ultherapy Prime allows the practitioner to view tissue during treatment and choose different depths for different parts of the face.
Focused energy creates small thermal coagulation points at the planned layer. Tissue contraction is followed by a collagen renewal process, combining an initial tightening sensation with contour changes that continue to develop over time.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions

Book an Ultherapy Prime consultation ↓
01How is Ultherapy Prime different from standard HIFU?+
Its defining feature is DeepSEE real-time ultrasound imaging, which allows the tissue layers to be viewed before energy depth is planned. Targeting can then be adjusted to skin thickness and facial area.
02When will I see a lifting result?+
Some tightening may be noticed soon after treatment, while the main change develops gradually over two to three months as collagen remodeling progresses.
03Is Ultherapy Prime painful, and is there downtime?+
You may feel brief heat or tingling as energy is delivered, so topical anesthesia is used. Daily activities can be resumed immediately, although temporary redness or swelling can occur.
