Frequently asked questions
How does Ulthera work?
It is a lifting device that delivers ultrasound energy down to the SMAS layer while viewing the skin layers with ultrasound imaging.
How long does it take and how often?
About 30–60 minutes per session, every 6–12 months.
How do Ulthera and Volnewmer differ?
Ulthera uses ultrasound to reach the SMAS layer, while Volnewmer uses monopolar radiofrequency to heat the dermis. They differ in energy type and depth; both are done every 6–12 months.
