Ultherapy

As we age, our skin begins to lose its elasticity and firmness. Gravity takes over, collagen production slows down, and fine lines or sagging skin become more noticeable. For many, the idea of a facelift can be intimidating — involving downtime, discomfort, and surgery. That’s where Ultherapy comes in.

At Eros Beauty and Wellness in San Diego, CA, we offer Ultherapy, a revolutionary, non-invasive treatment that uses ultrasound technology to lift, tone, and tighten the skin. It’s the perfect choice for those seeking visible, natural-looking results without surgery or extended recovery time.

What Is Ultherapy?

Ultherapy is an FDA-cleared, non-surgical treatment that uses focused ultrasound energy to lift and tighten the skin naturally. It works by targeting the deep structural layers of the skin — the same layers that surgeons address during a facelift — without cutting or disrupting the surface.

During treatment, Ultherapy delivers precise ultrasound energy to stimulate the body’s natural collagen production process. Over time, new collagen fibers form, resulting in firmer, smoother, and more lifted skin.

Unlike lasers, radiofrequency, or other energy-based treatments that focus on the skin’s outer layers, Ultherapy penetrates deeper, reaching up to 4.5 mm beneath the surface. This makes it uniquely effective for improving laxity and achieving a subtle, yet noticeable, lift over the course of several months.

How Ultherapy Works

Ultherapy uses micro-focused ultrasound energy to create a controlled thermal effect in targeted areas beneath the skin. This energy heats the tissue at specific depths, triggering the body’s natural healing response. The healing process, in turn, produces new collagen and elastin — the building blocks of youthful, resilient skin.

Because it bypasses the surface of the skin, there’s no downtime and no visible damage immediately after treatment. The result? A gradual tightening and lifting effect that continues to improve over several months, leaving your skin firmer and more youthful-looking.

Areas Ultherapy Can Treat

Ultherapy is ideal for addressing mild to moderate skin laxity in multiple areas of the face, neck, and décolletage. At Eros Beauty and Wellness, we commonly use Ultherapy to treat:

Brow area – Lifts drooping eyebrows and opens up the eyes for a refreshed look.
Chin and jawline – Defines the lower face, reduces the appearance of jowls, and restores contour.
Neck – Smooths and tightens loose skin, often referred to as “turkey neck.”
Décolletage – Reduces fine lines and wrinkles on the chest.

Ultherapy is also effective for improving overall skin tone and texture, giving the face a smoother and more lifted appearance without altering your natural expressions.

Ultherapy vs. Other Skin Tightening Treatments

While there are several skin tightening treatments available today, Ultherapy stands out for its ability to deliver results deep within the skin’s foundation. Here’s how it compares:

Ultherapy vs. Radiofrequency (RF):
RF treatments heat the upper layers of the skin to stimulate collagen. Ultherapy penetrates deeper, targeting the structural support layer for more lifting and firming effects.
Ultherapy vs. Laser Treatments:
Lasers primarily address surface concerns like pigmentation and fine lines. Ultherapy focuses on deep tissue tightening, often complementing laser procedures rather than replacing them.
Ultherapy vs. Microneedling:
Microneedling stimulates collagen through micro-injuries on the skin’s surface, improving texture and tone. Ultherapy, on the other hand, lifts and tightens the deeper layers — making the two treatments highly compatible when combined.

At Eros Beauty and Wellness, our experienced providers often recommend combination treatments for comprehensive skin rejuvenation, tailoring your plan to your unique skin needs.

Ultherapy Before and After

Many patients are curious about Ultherapy before and after results. Because Ultherapy stimulates natural collagen production, results develop gradually and continue to improve over time.

Immediately after treatment – You may notice a slight lifting effect as the tissue responds to the ultrasound energy.
2–3 months post-treatment – Collagen regeneration becomes more visible, leading to firmer, tighter skin.
3–6 months and beyond – The skin continues to improve in tone, texture, and elasticity.

Most patients enjoy their results for up to 1–2 years, depending on individual factors like age, skin quality, and lifestyle. Maintenance treatments can help sustain results and slow down the natural aging process.

Who Is a Good Candidate for Ultherapy?

Ultherapy is ideal for men and women experiencing mild to moderate skin laxity — those who are beginning to notice sagging around the brows, jawline, or neck but are not ready for surgery.

You may be a great candidate for Ultherapy if you:

Prefer a non-surgical approach to facial rejuvenation.
Want to tighten and lift without downtime.
Are seeking a natural enhancement rather than dramatic changes.
Have realistic expectations and are committed to long-term skin health.

During your consultation at Eros Beauty and Wellness, our expert team will assess your skin, discuss your aesthetic goals, and design a customized Ultherapy treatment plan tailored to you.

What Happens During an Ultherapy Treatment?

Consultation and Mapping
Your provider will begin by evaluating your skin and marking treatment areas.
Ultrasound Imaging
Ultherapy’s real-time imaging allows the practitioner to see deep layers of tissue, ensuring energy is delivered precisely where it’s needed.
Energy Delivery
The ultrasound device is gently applied to your skin, and focused energy is delivered in short bursts. You may feel warmth or tingling — a sign that collagen stimulation is occurring.
Completion and Recovery
The procedure typically takes 30 to 90 minutes, depending on the area treated. You can return to your normal activities immediately after.

Is Ultherapy Safe?

Yes — Ultherapy is FDA-cleared and has been safely performed on millions of patients worldwide. It’s considered one of the most effective non-surgical skin tightening procedures available today.

Common side effects are minimal and may include slight redness, swelling, or tenderness that resolves within a few hours to days. Because there are no incisions, needles, or anesthesia, Ultherapy carries virtually no risk of scarring or infection.
