Ultherapy is a non-invasive, FDA-cleared procedure that uses focused ultrasound energy to lift and tighten skin on the face, neck, and chest by stimulating your body’s own natural collagen production.
Lift and Tighten Naturally
- FDA-cleared to lift skin on the neck, chin, and brow
- Improves lines and wrinkles on the décolletage
- Stimulates your body’s own collagen
- Non-invasive with zero downtime
- Natural, gradual result
Is Ultherapy the Right Solution for You?
This treatment is designed for individuals experiencing mild to moderate skin laxity, where the skin has begun to feel and look less firm. It offers a powerful, non-surgical alternative for those who are not ready for a facelift but want to actively combat the visible effects of gravity and aging.
We Can Address:
- Facial & Neck Laxity: Sagging skin under the chin (“turkey neck”), the beginning of jowls, or a general loss of facial firmness.
- Brow & Eye Area: A lowered or drooping eyebrow line that contributes to a “tired” appearance.
- Chest & Décolletage: Fine lines, crepiness, and wrinkles on the upper chest.
You are an ideal candidate if:
You are in good health, typically in your 30s or older, and have noticed your skin is beginning to droop or sag. You value a preventative approach and desire natural-looking results that develop gradually, reflecting a refreshed, more youthful version of yourself without appearing “done.”
Our integrative approach is designed to help you achieve transformative results that are far more than skin-deep.
Your Ultherapy Experience at DRC360
We’ve designed our entire process around your comfort, your time, and your unique goals, ensuring you feel cared for from the moment you arrive.
- The Consultation: Listening First.
Your journey begins with a conversation. Dr. C or one of our expert providers will sit down with you to understand your concerns and aesthetic goals. We will assess your skin quality, review your medical history, and determine if Ultherapy is the most effective path to achieving the “wholeness” you deserve. We treat the person first, and this consultation ensures your treatment plan is 100% personalized to you. - The Procedure: Precision and Care.
During the treatment, we will apply a specialized gel and use the Ultherapy applicator to visualize the layers of your skin on a screen. This imaging technology allows us to deliver focused ultrasound energy with absolute precision to the exact depths where it will be most effective, bypassing the surface of your skin. You will feel a sensation of deep warmth or tingling as the energy is delivered, signaling that the collagen-building process has been initiated. - The Follow-Up: Ensuring Wholeness.
There is no downtime with Ultherapy, and you can return to your daily activities immediately. Our commitment to you doesn’t end when you leave. We will provide detailed aftercare instructions and, as with all our treatments, our team is known for its exceptional follow-up care to monitor your progress and ensure you are delighted with your natural, uplifting results.
Our Guiding Philosophy for Ultherapy
At DRC360, our approach to Ultherapy is guided by Dr. Cavazos’s extensive 30+ years of medical practice and his deep understanding of the biochemical changes that accompany aging. We view this treatment not as a simple tightening procedure, but as a regenerative tool to restore your skin’s foundational support structure. Our philosophy is to “treat the person first, then the patient”, which means we customize every treatment with precision and an artistic eye.
As a Board-Certified physician in Anti-Aging and Regenerative Medicine, Dr. C’s methodology involves meticulously mapping the treatment areas based on your unique anatomy. We use Ultherapy’s real-time imaging to ensure the ultrasound energy is delivered to the precise tissue depth needed to stimulate meaningful, long-term collagen production. This blend of advanced technology and decades of medical expertise ensures your results are not only effective but also harmonious and natural-looking, contributing to your overall sense of wholeness.
What to Expect: Your Results Timeline
- Immediately After Treatment: You may experience some mild redness or flushing, but this typically subsides within a few hours. Some patients report a slight tingling or tenderness to the touch, which is temporary.
- The First Few Weeks: You may notice an initial “lift” as the treatment tightens existing collagen. This is just the beginning.
- Two to Three Months Post-Treatment: This is when the magic happens. Your body will be actively producing new, stronger collagen. You will begin to see a more significant lift and tightening of the skin in the treated areas.
- Final Results (3-6 Months): The full results of your Ultherapy treatment will become apparent as the collagen-building process completes. Your skin will appear firmer, your profile more defined, and your brow more lifted. Results from a single treatment can last for a year or more.
Frequently Asked Questions about Ultherapy
How Much Does Ultherapy Cost?
The cost of Ultherapy varies significantly depending on the areas being treated. A smaller area like the brow will cost less than a full-face and neck treatment. Because our philosophy centers on personalized care, we cannot provide a-la-carte pricing. The precise cost is determined during your in-depth consultation after we have assessed your specific needs and goals. This ensures your investment is tailored directly to the results you wish to achieve.
Is Ultherapy Painful?
Patient comfort is a priority in our nurturing environment. Discomfort levels vary from person to person. Most patients describe the sensation as a deep warmth or tingling that is intermittent and only lasts while the ultrasound energy is being delivered. We will work with you to ensure you are comfortable throughout the procedure. Our patients appreciate our relaxed atmosphere where they never feel rushed.
How Does Ultherapy Compare to Morpheus8?
This is an excellent question, as we offer both treatments. The primary difference is the technology and the target. Ultherapy uses focused ultrasound to go deeper than any other non-invasive treatment, targeting the foundational layer of skin (the SMAS) to create a significant lift. Morpheus8 combines microneedling with radiofrequency energy to remodel collagen at more superficial levels, making it exceptional for improving skin texture, fine lines, wrinkles, and laxity on both the face and body. During your consultation, we will determine which treatment, or combination of treatments, is right for you.
How Many Sessions Will I Need?
One of the greatest benefits of Ultherapy is that most patients achieve their desired results with just one treatment. Unlike other energy-based procedures that require a series of sessions, Ultherapy is designed to be a single-session solution for most candidates. In cases of more significant skin laxity, a second session may be recommended to achieve optimal results.
At DRC360, you are more than just a patient; you are part of our family. We’ve created a nurturing, welcoming environment where you will never feel rushed and will always be heard. Your journey starts with a simple conversation.
