About the procedure

When the weight is gone but the skin still looks loose

Weight loss or reduced elasticity can leave the skin on the arms, abdomen, and thighs looking loose, making the body line appear less smooth. Body Ulthera uses HIFU to create thermal coagulation points in the deep layers of the skin, inducing collagen regeneration and helping firm and tighten sagging body skin.

Energy is delivered to the boundary between the dermis and subcutaneous fat while damage to the skin surface is minimized, so no incisions are needed and daily activities can be resumed right away. Collagen regeneration tends to develop over two to three months, and the degree and longevity of change vary with weight changes and lifestyle.
