Skin Tightening Treatments on the Rise
Corona Del Mar, CA, March 31, 2016 (Newswire.com) - Skin tightening treatments are leading the growth in the surgical and non-surgical esthetics industry. According to the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, skin tightening procedures increased by 58 percent in 2015.
One of the biggest leaders in this category is Ultherapy, a non-surgical method of tightening the skin around the brows, under the chin and along the neck. More patients are choosing this option over more drastic treatments, such as surgical facelifts. They like the fact that no surgery is required. “Patients appreciate that they get great results with no downtime,” said Dr. Laurie Casas, who is a member of the ASAPS.
The key is to find a practitioner you can trust

Ultherapy uses ultrasound technology in a two-fold way. First, ultrasound imaging allows the medical practitioner to get a good look at the tissue under the skin and to identify the best areas for treatment. Second, ultrasound therapy is used to direct energy to those areas at the right temperature. The energy reaches all three layers of tissue and stimulates the production of collagen, which increases the elasticity of the skin. The result is firmer skin in the areas that have been treated.
The entire procedure takes only about 60 – 90 minutes, and the person is able to return to work or other activities immediately. There is no recovery time and no scars. Most of the time, only one procedure is required for long-term results. With Ultherapy, the person will notice a difference in two to three months as their skin begins to feel firmer with the increased collagen production.
Ultherapy uses no chemicals, which is another reason for its popularity. Instead, it stimulates the body to produce its own anti-aging product with the collagen. The ideal candidate is one with mild or moderate signs of aging who doesn’t want to go through surgery to achieve younger-looking skin.
Ultherapy offers many advantages over other treatment options, since it doesn’t require recurring appointments and there are few side effects. The main side effect is redness after the procedure which goes away in a few hours. As this treatment gains popularity, more people will choose Ultherapy over other more invasive procedures. “The key is to find a practitioner you can trust,” says Dan Holtz of Beverly Hills Rejuvenation Center. “Talk about your options, so you and your practitioner can choose the best treatment for your situation.”
Beverly Hills Rejuvenation Center performs the Ultherapy procedure in the clinic. This wellness spa offers a variety of products and treatments to help people look and feel younger. The medical practitioner will hold a consultation with a patient who is interested in Ultherapy to determine if this is the best option. They can answer any questions the patient might have and give them an idea of what results they can expect.
The growth of skin tightening treatments isn’t expected to slow down any time soon, as more people look to reverse the signs of aging. Ultherapy is one way a person can feel good about how they look.
