Ultrasound Technology Brings Beauty Without the Knife

Beverly Hills, CA, January 30, 2017 (Newswire.com) - Most people associate ultrasound technology with pregnancy - those adorable pictures of babies in utero that fill up our social media feeds. Beverly Hills Rejuvenation Center reports that new innovations are proving that ultrasound technology can be used in a wide variety of ways beyond imaging, including in the area of improving appearance through skin tightening.

Ultrasounds are so powerful because they can target tissue that’s beneath the surface. They allow doctors to get to parts of the body that were heretofore unreachable without surgery. These machines accomplish this task using sound waves, just as their name implies.  Traditional ultrasounds that are used for imagining produce broad sound waves that bounce off objects within the body, sound waves that are then measured by carefully calibrated machinery and interpreted to produce images.

In recent years, innovation has come through focused ultrasound technology. Known as microfocused ultrasound, high-intensity focused ultrasound, or ultherapy, these procedures have been approved by the FDA for many different cosmetic and medical uses. With these therapies, transducers in the equipment target small points within the body that experience temperature elevation, causing the coagulation of tissue and the tightening of the area. High-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) is used to get to tissue deep within the body, 1.1-1.8cm. Microfocused ultrasound (MFU) is used for tissues that are near the surface of the skin, up to 5mm.

Ultherapy has created a new wave of interest in non-surgical facelifts in the general public. Ultrasound technology has been around for decades, with a positive track record and a very low risk of side effects. Beverly Hills Rejuvenation Center offers access to this safe and effective solution for improving the appearance, without surgery.
