Smile this Fall with Ultherapy® Facial Skin Tightening
Fall is officially here and the holiday season is right around the corner. As we age, the production of certain proteins in our skin begins to slow making our skin not as tight as it once was. This year don’t dread seeing family and friends because you feel and look older. Ultherapy® facial skin tightening can help lift loose skin leaving everyone else wondering how you stay so vibrant and youthful looking.
Ulthera® is an FDA approved non-invasive technology that uses ultrasound waves to tighten lax skin around the neck, cheek jowls, forhead (eyebrow) and under the chin. At Dermatology Associates of Atlanta our providers first evaluate each patient to determine the depth and area(s) of concern, so they can specifically target your individual needs. The technology heats the targeted tissue underneath the surface to stimulate collagen production and tighten loose skin.
Patients enjoy the many benefits of Ulthera® including quick recovery times and lowered risk of complications compared to more invasive, surgical facial treatments. Patients generally experience only mild and temporary side effects such as redness and swelling following the procedure. Ulthera® is great for both men and women who are experiencing loose or sagging skin and who are not ready for a surgical procedure. At Dermatology Associates of Atlanta we commonly combine Ultherapy® with Botox® and facial fillers for even better results.
If you are interested in learning more about Ultherapy® or other non-surgical facial rejuvenation options please contact our office today. Be sure to connect with us on Facebook, Twitter, Google + and Pinterest for the latest dermatology news and information.
Anti-Aging, Wrinkle Treatments at Dermatology Associates of Atlanta
At Dermatology Associates of Atlanta we want all of our patients to look as young as they feel. For patients looking for anti-aging treatments, our wrinkle reducing procedures including cosmetic injectables, Ultherapy®, laser skin resurfacing and eyelid surgery provide very effective results.
Cosmetic injections such as Botox® and Dysport® can help address crow’s feet, forehead lines and frown lines. According to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, in 2011 Botulinum Toxin Type A injections were the most popular cosmetic minimally-invasive procedure performed in the U.S. Botox® and Dysport® work to relax wrinkle-causing muscles in the face. These injectables require no downtime and results usually last between three and six months.
For patients looking for full facial rejuvenation may consider Ultherapy® skin tightening. Ulthera® is an FDA approved noninvasive technology that uses ultrasound energy to target and lift tissue on the face and neck. Similar to cosmetic injectables, Ultherapy® patients enjoy the benefits of a quick recovery time and lower risks of side effects compared to more invasive surgical procedures. In addition the results are more long lasting than Botox® treatments.
With the advancement of laser technology, Fraxel® and DOT laser skin therapy are also effective treatments to lessen the effects of aging and wrinkles. The DOT laser selectively targets collagen-containing layers of skin by making tiny microscopic points in the specific area(s) of concern. The Fraxel laser is similar to the DOT laser and emits tiny, deep columns of laser light into the skin without affecting surrounding tissue. These treatments stimulate new, healthy tissue to replace damaged cells producing tighter, younger looking skin. The two treatments are quite different and DOT produces more down time but can present effective results depending on your skin and your problem.
Patients who have excess skin and droopy eyelids that non-invasive treatments cannot effectively treat may be better candidates for blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery). During eyelid surgery excess skin and fat will be removed to restore a more vibrant awake appearance.
