After losing weight, many people find that they want to do more to make themselves look their best. One common complaint is sagging facial skin. After you lose weight, it’s common for your facial skin to sag as some of your fat disappears. Aging and sun damage can contribute to the sagging, which makes you look old and tired. If this sounds like you, then Ultherapy could be the solution you’re looking for. Talk to the weight loss specialists in Mt. Kisco and the surrounding Westchester County area about your options for skin toning to see if Ultherapy could be right for you. Here are the answers to some common questions people have about this skin rejuvenation treatment.

What is Ultherapy?

Ultherapy uses ultrasonic waves to stimulate the production of collagen deep within your skin. As more collagen is created, your skin takes on a fuller, tighter, more youthful appearance. Sagging is improved dramatically, so you look refreshed and younger. The treatment is fast and requires little downtime. The full results of treatment take about one to three months to appear.

What happens during treatment?

Before undergoing Ultherapy, you may receive pain medications and a sedative to keep you comfortable during treatment. Without any kind of pain management, there can be some discomfort during Ultherapy. Your doctor will apply a device that transmits ultrasonic waves to the treatment area. The length of treatment depends on the areas being treated. Ultherapy can be used to treat skin around the eyes, under the chin, and on your neck.

Who is a good candidate for Ultherapy?

Ultherapy is safe for the vast majority of people. It is most effective for people with mild to moderate skin sagging who want to improve the appearance of their skin without the downtime required for facelift surgery. The earlier you start Ultherapy, the better results you can expect. Your doctor can help you decide if Ultherapy can help you achieve your treatment goals.
