Ultherapy Prime Skin Tightening
Ultherapy Prime is a FDA-approved, noninvasive treatment that uses ultrasound to lift and tighten skin on the face and neck. By targeting deeper layers without harming the surface, ultrasonic waves boost collagen and elastin production for a smoother, more youthful appearance.
“Ultherapy lets me perform deep, precise tightening with surgical-level control—non-invasively and with high-definition visualization.”

How is Ultherapy Performed?
Ultherapy is performed in our New York City office and can take 30-90 minutes, depending on the patient’s specific needs.
Patients can expect to feel a warming sensation as the Ultherapy Prime device delivers energy to the targeted tissue. Some patients report mild discomfort during the procedure, but pain tolerance varies from patient to patient.
First, the treatment area is cleaned, and then an ultrasound gel is applied. Next, we activate the Ultherapy Prime device—it visualizes the structure of your face with unprecedented accuracy. This empowers Dr. Sung to pinpoint exactly where to deliver the high-intensity focused energy and determine the optimal amount needed for the desired lifting and tightening effects.
How Does Ultherapy Prime Compare to Past Technologies
When Ultherapy was first introduced in 2009, it revolutionized non-invasive face lifting. Now, Ultherapy Prime has arrived as the latest generation of this groundbreaking technology. With decades of innovation and over 3 million treatments performed, Ultherapy Prime is the most advanced FDA-cleared high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) device for non-invasive face and neck lifting.
Ultherapy Prime employs guided high-resolution ultrasound imaging, enabling physicians to accurately identify target structures with enhanced detail, ultimately leading to better results and increased customer satisfaction. Additionally, given the depth and intensity of high-intensity focused ultrasound, precise energy placement is essential for ensuring safety, comfort, and effectiveness.
AM I A CANDIDATE FOR ULTHERAPY?
Ideal candidates for Ultherapy have realistic expectations of the procedure and are in generally good physical health. Ultherapy works best for individuals with mild to moderate laxity (loss of firmness) in the face and neck.
Both men and women may consider Ultherapy treatment if they can relate to any of the following cosmetic concerns:
-
Fine lines and wrinkles on the décolletage
-
Mild to moderate sagging on the face and neck
-
Drooping eyebrows
-
An upset or tired eye appearance due to sagging brows
Individuals with personality disorders and clinical diagnoses of conditions such as depression and Body Dysmorphic Disorder (BDD) are not candidates for any aesthetic treatment.
What Results Can I Expect After Ultherapy?
Most patients will experience minimal or no downtime.
Patients can expect to notice an improvement immediately following their Ultherapy treatment. Results continue to develop within two to three months after the procedure while the body produces new collagen and elastin, and they can last for up to one year. While most patients achieve the enhancement they desire after one treatment, some may require a subsequent session to correct significant skin laxity.
What are the Risks of Ultherapy Prime Procedures?
Complications associated with Ultherapy are uncommon, but no aesthetic procedure is entirely risk-free. The potential temporary side effects of the treatment may include the following:
-
Slight redness
-
Mild swelling
-
Tingling
-
Tenderness
-
Reduced volume
-
Nerve impairment
Minimize potential side effects by having a well-trained and experienced physician perform the procedure; Dr. Sung has been providing Ultherapy treatments since 2009. What’s more, the enhanced visualization capabilities of Ultherapy Prime technology further reduce risks by providing practitioners with greatly improved imaging for exact administration.
