Ultherapy: The Natural Lift Without Surgery or Downtime
The mirror doesn’t lie, but sometimes its honesty arrives faster than expected. One day, the skin on your neck isn’t quite as firm, or your jawline begins to soften. The change is subtle—but noticeable. You’re not looking for surgery. You’re looking for something that helps you feel like yourself again—refreshed, lifted, and natural.
That’s where Ultherapy steps in. Ultherapy is the only FDA-cleared, non-invasive treatment that uses focused ultrasound energy to lift and tighten the skin on the face, neck, and chest. It’s ideal for men and women who want to boost collagen production naturally and gradually restore firmness without downtime.
How Ultherapy Works: The Science of Skin Lifting
Ultherapy delivers micro-focused ultrasound energy to the deeper layers of the skin. This energy triggers a natural regenerative response, jumpstarting the production of collagen and elastin, which are the essential proteins that give skin its youthful structure and resilience.
What makes Ultherapy different from lasers or radiofrequency devices is its ability to bypass the surface of the skin and precisely target tissue depths that other non-invasive treatments can’t reach.
According to a clinical study published in the Journal of Drugs in Dermatology, 90% of patients saw a visible improvement in skin laxity after just one Ultherapy treatment, with the full results developing over 2–3 months as collagen builds beneath the surface.¹
No Downtime, Just Gradual, Natural Results
One of Ultherapy’s biggest advantages is that it fits seamlessly into busy lives. There’s no recovery time. Most patients return to work, workouts, or errands immediately after treatment. Side effects, if any, are typically mild—slight redness, swelling, or tenderness that fades within a few days.
Because results unfold gradually, it’s discreet. Friends and coworkers may notice that you look “refreshed,” but they can’t quite put their finger on why. That’s the power of non-invasive collagen stimulation—it enhances your natural beauty rather than altering it.
More Than a One-Time Treatment
Ultherapy results are long-lasting, with many patients seeing benefits for up to a year or more. However, skin continues to age, and a touch-up treatment at the 3–6 month mark can amplify and maintain your lift. At Atagi Plastic Surgery and Skin Aesthetics in Lone Tree, we encourage touch-ups as part of a personalized skin renewal plan.
To support your skin from the inside out, we also provide every Ultherapy patient with a complimentary CollaGen supplement by Ortho Molecular—a unique step not offered at most practices. This pharmaceutical-grade supplement helps extend and enhance the treatment’s results by feeding your body the building blocks it needs to produce more collagen.
The Benefits of CollaGen: Fueling Skin Renewal
CollaGen by Ortho Molecular isn’t your average collagen powder. It combines types I, II, and III collagen peptides—the most beneficial types for skin, joints, and bones—with synergistic nutrients like vitamin C, hyaluronic acid, and biotin.
These ingredients help:
- Boost skin hydration and elasticity
- Support firmer skin texture and tone
- Accelerate wound healing and tissue regeneration
- Improve joint health and mobility
A 2019 clinical trial in Nutrients found that daily intake of collagen peptides significantly improved skin elasticity, density, and hydration after just 12 weeks.² When paired with a treatment like Ultherapy, which already stimulates collagen formation, the effects are even more profound.
The Unsung Perks of Ultherapy (That Most People Don’t Know)
Many people think Ultherapy is just for lifting sagging skin. But its benefits go deeper—and broader.
- Refines Skin Texture: While Ultherapy isn’t a resurfacing treatment, many patients report smoother skin and smaller pores due to increased collagen density.
- Tightens Under-Chin Fullness: It can subtly reduce the appearance of a double chin by firming the skin along the jawline and neck.
- Improves Chest Wrinkles: Ultherapy is FDA-cleared to treat the décolletage, making it one of the few non-invasive options for vertical chest lines often caused by side-sleeping or sun exposure.
Pairing Ultherapy With Other Treatments for Maximum Impact
While Ultherapy is powerful on its own, combining it with other treatments can take your results even further. Some effective pairings include:
- BroadBand Light (BBL) or Moxi Laser: These treatments target pigmentation, sun damage, and fine lines. When paired with Ultherapy, you address both the skin’s tone and tightness.
- Injectables like Sculptra® or dermal fillers: Sculptra boosts collagen in the mid-face and temples, while fillers can restore volume in the cheeks or lips. Ultherapy lifts the skin framework; fillers support facial volume.
- Medical-grade skincare: Products containing growth factors, peptides, and retinol can support skin renewal and complement the collagen boost from Ultherapy.
