Lift, Tighten & Give Thanks

The Corpus Christi Institute of Cosmetic and Plastic Surgery now offers Ultherapy

The Corpus Christi Institute of Cosmetic andbrPlastic Surgery now offers Ultherapy! “I wanted to give my patients options.brSome people are not ready for surgery, but still need something that is goingbrto deliver that lift they are lacking. Ultherapy is that lift.”

brbr

A non-invasive skin tightening & liftingbrtreatment, Ultherapy uses time-tested ultrasound energy to lift and tighten thebrskin naturally without surgery, helping you achieve a fresher, more youthfulbrlook from your brow to your chest! The safety and efficacy of Ultherapy havebrbeen established through clinical studies and over 1 million treatmentsbrperformed worldwide. Ultherapy is FDA-cleared to lift the skin on the neck,brunder the chin, and on the brow, as well as to improve the appearance of linesbrand wrinkles on the décolleté. Ultherapy has also received the European CE markbrfor non-invasive dermatological sculpting and lifting of the upper face, lowerbrface, neck and décolleté.

brbr

Before your treatment, you will schedule abrone-on-one consultation with one of our Ultherapy-trained aestheticians tobrdetermine if you are a candidate for the treatment and to decide which areasbryou would like treated.

 

brbr

During the treatment, ultrasound energy will bebrdelivered using the Ulthera System. Depending on where you are treated,brthe procedure can last anywhere from 30 minutes to 2 hours. Some patients seebran immediate result, but you should expect to see results appear over 2-3brmonths or even up to 6 months post-treatment. After cleansing the skin, our aesthetician will apply thebrultrasound gel and place the smooth treatment applicator against your skin. Ourbraesthetician will use ultrasound imaging to determine optimal placement of thebrtreatment energy, and then deliver the focused ultrasound energy beneath thebrskin’s surface. During the treatment, you will feel energy being deposited tobrprecise depths, indicating that the collagen-building process has beenbrinitiated.

brbr

 

Ultherapy deposits focused ultrasoundbrenergy deep beneath the skin at the optimal temperature for collagenbrregeneration. The treatment jumpstarts a natural process, neocollagenesis, tobrproduce fresh, new collagen to counteract the effects of time and gravity onbryour skin. Ultherapy relies on your body’s own collagen-building process forbrnatural, noticeable results.

 

brbr

Since there is no downtime with Ultherapy, youbrare free to return to your normal activities immediately after your treatmentbris complete. Some patients appear flushed, or may experience slight swelling,brtingling, or tenderness to touch. These side effects are mild and temporary inbrnature, and are not expected to interfere with your normal activities. As withbrany medical procedure, there is the possibility for other rare effects, whichbrour aestheticians will review with you during your consultation.

brbr

Consultations for Ultherapy are complimentary,brboth Ashley Wendt (Licensed Aesthetician) and Lindsay Garcia (LicensedbrAesthetician) look forward to discussing the possibilities this treatment hasbrfor you!
