The Facts About Ultherapy


Collagen is a natural protein that gives skin its youthfulness by keeping it firmed, toned and elastic. As we age, collagen loses its elasticity and its ability to stand up to the effects of gravity that pull the skin downward. Ultherapy jump starts a natural repair process that produces fresh, new collagen.

Ultherapy is cleared by the FDA to specifically lift skin on the neck, under the chin and above the brow.

Patients treated with Ultherapy still have fresh young collagen after a year’s time following the procedure, but skin continues to age. Future touch-up treatments can help keep pace with the aging process, which varies by individual. We are finding many clients are in their 40's and 50's are having this procedure.

Ultherapy is an “uplift” not a “face lift.”

While it is not a replacement for surgery, it is a viable option for those not ready for a face lift or those looking to prolong the effects of cosmetic surgery.

Dr. Bafitis combines many procedures with the Ultherapy treatment including C02 laser treatment.

The lasers typically address issues in the superficial layers of the skin (e.g. fine lines, wrinkles, pigment changes). Ultherapy addresses the deep skin layer and the foundational layer addressed in cosmetic surgery that lift and lend support to the skin. Therefore, the two technologies are quite complementary!

During your consultation with Dr. Bafitis he will recommend the right treatment for your needs. The majority of patients only need one treatment; however, some may benefit from more than one treatment (depending on how much laxity they have and their body’s own biological response to the ultrasound and collagen-building process).

Not everyone is a candidate for this non sugical procedure.

An isolated neck lift or mid- face lift may be in order to achieve the results you desire. During your consultation Dr. Bafitis will be realistic and suggest what will be needed to achieve the goals you desire. During your consult it is best to be prepared and ask questions. Our goal is 100% client satisfaction.

Ultherapy Pricing: Full-Face, Brow, Lower-Face or Neck.

Ultherapy pricing ranges depending on the area treated. Pricing ranges from $1000 - $3500 for the full face ultherapy. During your initial consultation Dr. Bafitis, a double board certified plastic surgeon, will discuss frankly what is needed to achieve the results desired.
