Tighten and firm skin using ultrasound with UltraFormer

As we get older, we can start to notice our skin quality become compromised. We may also notice that our bodily contours aren’t as toned as they once were. With the advancement of innovative technologies which are now used in cosmetic medicine, the invasive surgical procedures for skin tightening and body contouring can now be avoided in many cases. At Dr Medispa in London and Essex, we offer a range of non-surgical treatments to help you maintain a youthful complexion and a toned physique. One of our newest and most exciting devices available is the Ultraformer III, designed to lift, tighten and contour the skin on both the face and the body.

What is UltraFormer III?

UltraFormer III utilises non-invasive ultrasound (HIFU) to lift and tighten the skin of the face and body. Each precision per shot pulse delivers targeted energy to remodel collagen fibres, treating lines, wrinkles and facial skin sagging and tightening body tissues to tone and shape your silhouette.

The ultrasound multi-depth cartridges of the Ultraformer III only targets specific layers of the skin, whilst surrounding tissues remain undamaged.

UltraFormer III can only be performed by expertly-trained practitioners such as those at Dr Medispa, to ensure a professional standard of care, clinical expertise and the utmost safety during your treatment.

Freqently Asked Questions

How does UltraFormer III work?

As the ultrasound waves reach specific layers of the skin, it creates a heating effect to temperatures at around 65-75 °C. This heating action creates trauma to the skin tissues, which in turn initiates a natural healing response, increasing the production of collagen fibres. The result – firmer and tighter skin.

Which areas can be treated with UltraFormer III?

Most commonly treated areas include:

• Sagging eyelids
• Fine lines and wrinkles
• Double chin
• Enlarged pores
• Uneven skin tone or texture
• Lose skin on the body (arms, knees, thighs, buttocks, abdomen, flanks, chest (men only)) – COMING SOON

Am I suitable for a treatment with UltraFormer III at Dr Medispa?

As UltraFormer III is a non-surgical procedure, most patients who are experience skin laxity and the general signs of ageing can benefit from the treatment. However, prior to UltraFormer III being agreed upon, we will invite you to attend an initial, no obligation consultation, skin assessment and medical history check. It is at this meeting that you will be able to discuss your facial or body concerns and the goals you’d like to achieve.

We will also ensure that there are no contraindications which may restrict or prevent the treatment from going ahead. Once we are confident that UltraFormer III will be both effective and safe for you to undergo, you can book your first appointment.

What does an UltraFormer III treatment feel like?

A treatment with UltraFormer III is generally well-tolerated and should not feel painful.

Most patients describe feeling a mild pinpricking sensation and a gentle warming of the skin. Other patients have described the sensation as a mini electric shock, as the heat increases under the skin.

Are there any side-effects from a treatment with UltraFormer III?

As with any heat device treatments, there can be some temporary side-effects. These include:

Discomfort – this can be in the form of tingling or warmth under the skin. It is only usually felt when the ultrasound energy is being applied. However, you may experience some tingling for a few hours after your treatment. This is quite normal.
Redness and swelling – you may notice some redness and swelling in the treatment area, but this should subside in a matter of hours.
Numbness – some patients comment that their skin feels numb for a limited time, but this is quite normal and will subside.

How many treatments will I need?

Many patients start to see results within one treatment. However, for optimum results, you may require a course of several sessions, depending on the areas to be treated. For example:-

For face and neck, one to three treatments, spaced three months apart may be required.
For eyes and submental areas, you may require between three and six treatments, spaced one month apar.

Maintenance treatments every 6 to 12 months help to maintain the results achieved, in your initial course of treatment.

When will I see the results?

Some skin tightening results can be seen straight away. However, as collagen production increases over time and with several treatment sessions, you will see a continued improvement in your skin’s tone and texture.
