What is Ultherapy and how does it work?
Ultherapy is an Health Canada approved, non-invasive treatment that uses micro-focused ultrasound energy to target the deeper structural layers of the skin. Unlike lasers and radiofrequency devices that work primarily on the surface or mid-dermis, Ultherapy's ultrasound reaches the SMAS layer; the same foundational tissue layer that surgeons address in a surgical facelift.
What happens beneath the skin
The ultrasound energy creates small, precise thermal points at targeted depths beneath the skin, including at the SMAS layer. Your body responds to those thermal points by initiating a collagen repair response, producing new collagen to replace what has been broken down over time. That new collagen gradually tightens and lifts the overlying skin from within.
What results to expect
Results are not immediate. You will not leave looking dramatically different on the day of treatment. Improvement develops gradually over two to six months as collagen builds. Patients often describe looking progressively more refreshed and defined without any single obvious moment of change. Some people refer to it loosely as a non-surgical alternative to a facelift, though the results and the process are quite different, and we are careful not to draw that comparison directly.
Treatment areas
- Brow — lift and open the eye area
- Jowls — tighten and define the jawline
- Neck — tighten loose or crepey skin
- Cheeks — improve midface firmness
- Chin — reduce chin laxity
- Décolletage — smooth chest lines
Real-time imaging
Ultherapy uses ultrasound imaging during treatment, allowing your provider to see the tissue layers in real time and confirm energy is being delivered to the correct depth — not just the surface. This is not something most skin tightening devices can do.
Candidacy
Who is a good candidate for Ultherapy in London, Ontario?
Ultherapy works best for patients with mild to moderate skin laxity who are noticing the early effects of gravity and collagen loss, but are not at a stage where surgical intervention would be appropriate or necessary. It is not a replacement for surgery and we will tell you that directly if you come in expecting surgical results.
Honest expectations
Ultherapy produces real, measurable improvement in skin tightness and definition, particularly around the jawline, neck, and brow. The results are gradual and natural-looking. They will not replicate the degree of change achievable with surgery. If you have significant skin laxity, we will tell you at consultation whether Ultherapy is the right starting point or whether a different approach makes more sense for your goals.
Good candidates
Consultation required to confirm suitability.
- Mild to moderate skin laxity; early jowling, loose neck, softening brow
- Patients in their 30s to 60s noticing gradual loss of skin firmness
- Those wanting a gradual, natural-looking improvement without downtime
- Patients looking to delay or complement other treatments over time
- Safe for all skin types and tones — no melanin targeting involved
- Severe skin laxity; surgery is likely a better option and we will say so
- Active skin infections or open wounds in the treatment area
- Active skin infections or open wounds in the treatment area
- Pregnancy
What to Expect AT YOUR ULTHERAPY appointment
Your Ultherapy appointment, start to finish
01
Consultation and skin assessment
We review your skin laxity, your goals, and whether Ultherapy is appropriate for your specific concerns. Honest conversation about what results are realistic for your skin comes first. A free VISIA analysis is included for new patients.
02
Treatment area mapped and gel applied
Your provider marks the treatment areas and applies ultrasound gel. This is the same gel used in medical ultrasound imaging — it helps the device make contact with the skin and transmit energy accurately.
03
Ultherapy handpiece applied to skin
The smooth Ultherapy handpiece is placed against the skin and moved across the treatment area. Real-time ultrasound imaging allows your provider to see the tissue layers and confirm energy is reaching the correct depth. You may feel intermittent warmth, tingling, or brief sharp sensations as the ultrasound pulses — this indicates the energy is reaching the deeper tissue layer where it needs to be.
04
Session time: 30 to 90 minutes
Timing varies based on how many areas are being treated. A full face and neck session takes approximately 60 to 90 minutes. A single area like the neck alone takes considerably less.
05
No downtime — resume normal activities
Most patients return to their regular day immediately after treatment. Some mild redness, swelling, or tenderness in the treated area is normal and resolves within hours to a day or two. No recovery protocol required.
ULTHERAPY Recovery TIMELINE
Day by day recovery timeline.
Ultherapy is one of the slower-building treatments in aesthetics. The results come from collagen your body produces — so they take time, and they look completely natural because of it.
DAY 1
Treatment day: Mild redness or flushing normal. Some patients notice a slight tightening sensation immediately after. No visible change yet — collagen production has just begun.
Month 1
Early collagen: Subtle changes beginning. Some patients notice their skin looks slightly firmer or more refreshed. Many see no visible change yet at this stage.
Months 2–3
Building phase: Most patients see visible improvement by month 2 to 3. Jawline looks more defined. Neck appears tighter. Brow sits slightly higher.
Peak result: Full result visible. Results can last 12 months or longer. Maintenance sessions every 1 to 2 years sustain improvement as natural aging continues.
Does Ultherapy hurt?
It is uncomfortable for most patients — but manageable. The sensation is typically described as intermittent warmth, tingling, or brief sharp pulses as the ultrasound energy reaches the deeper tissue layers. The discomfort is actually a clinical indicator that the energy is reaching the correct depth. Pain tolerance varies significantly between patients. We discuss comfort management options at your consultation, and numbing cream or over-the-counter pain
How long do Ultherapy results last?
Most patients see results that last 12 months or longer after a single treatment. Because the improvement comes from collagen your body builds naturally, results fade gradually rather than all at once. Periodic maintenance sessions every 1 to 2 years help sustain results as the natural aging process continues. Individual longevity varies based on age, skin condition, and lifestyle factors.
How many Ultherapy sessions do I need?
Most patients achieve their desired result from a single session. Some with more significant laxity may benefit from a second session assessed at 6 to 12 months. We will give you a realistic recommendation at consultation based on your specific skin, your goals, and how your skin responds to the initial treatment.
Is there any downtime after Ultherapy?
No. Most patients return to their normal activities immediately after the appointment. You may experience some mild redness, light swelling, or tenderness in the treated area — this typically resolves within a few hours to a day or two. There is no recovery period, no wound care, and no restrictions on your usual routine after treatment.
When will I see results from Ultherapy?
Results develop gradually as your body produces new collagen. Most patients notice visible improvement between 2 and 3 months after treatment, with the full result showing at 4 to 6 months. Do not expect to see a change immediately — Ultherapy is a slow-build treatment by design, and the gradual nature of the improvement is what makes the result look natural.
Is Ultherapy safe for darker skin tones?
Yes. Unlike laser treatments that target melanin, Ultherapy uses ultrasound energy that bypasses the skin's surface entirely. It does not interact with pigment and carries no risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation related to melanin. It is safe for all skin types and tones.
How much does Ultherapy cost in London, Ontario?
Ultherapy pricing depends on the number of treatment areas and the number of passes delivered. Full face and neck sessions are a larger investment than treating a single area like the neck or brow alone. Book a consultation at Infinite Medical Spa for a personalized quote — we assess your skin and outline a clear plan with transparent pricing before you commit.
How does Ultherapy compare to other skin tightening treatments?
Ultherapy's key distinction is depth. It reaches the SMAS layer — the structural tissue beneath the dermis — which most radiofrequency and laser devices do not. RF microneedling and laser resurfacing work at dermal and surface levels and are better suited for skin texture and tone concerns. Ultherapy is more specifically targeted at structural lifting and tightening. Many patients benefit from combining Ultherapy with complementary treatments like dermal fillers or Botox as part of a broader skin health plan — your provider will advise on what makes sense for your goals.
