Deeper treatment
Ultherapy PRIME is the only FDA-approved ultrasound treatment that goes deeper for more effective results.
No downtime
No downtime or recovery period is required, allowing you to resume your normal activities immediately after treatment.
Long-lasting results
The collagen stimulation induced by Ultherapy PRIME can lead to long-lasting results, helping you maintain your youthful appearance over time.
How Does Ultherapy PRIME® Work?
Ultherapy PRIME is like a mini-facelift without the surgery or downtime. Targeting the same deep layers as a traditional facelift, using ultrasound energy to tighten and lift your skin from the inside out.
Collagen is a key component of youthful-looking skin, but our bodies produce less as we age. Ultherapy PRIME stimulates your body’s natural collagen production, restoring firmness and elasticity.
With its advanced imaging technology, Ultherapy PRIME treatments can be customized for your specific needs, providing faster, more efficient results in just one session. It’s the perfect way to get a refreshed, more youthful look without all the hassle.
Is Ultherapy PRIME® Right for Me?
Ultherapy offers a safe and effective alternative to traditional facelifts. It’s ideal for those experiencing some degree of skin laxity or loss of elasticity, but aren’t ready to undergo invasive procedures.
The newest Ultherapy treatment is ideal for people who:
- Feel like their eyes look tired or upset due to sagging brows
- Have fine lines and wrinkles on their chest
- Notice mild to moderate sagging in their face and neck
- Have drooping eyebrows
What Can I Treat With Ultherapy PRIME®?
Using focused ultrasound energy, Ultherapy PRIME stimulates collagen production and tightens sagging skin, resulting in a more lifted and rejuvenated look. It can lift sagging skin and smooth wrinkles on your neck, jawline, and brow.
Benefits of Ultherapy PRIME include:
- Neck and jawline lifting: Say goodbye to sagging skin and jowls. Ultherapy PRIME can help restore a more defined and youthful contour to your neck and jawline.
- Brow lifting: Experience a natural brow lift without the need for surgery. Ultherapy PRIME can help elevate your brows, giving your face a more refreshed and alert appearance.
- Wrinkle reduction: Smooth out fine lines and wrinkles on your neck and décolletage. Ultherapy PRIME can help improve skin texture and restore a more youthful glow.
Ultherapy PRIME vs. Past Treatments
Ultherapy PRIME is a cutting-edge innovation in non-invasive face and neck lifting. It’s the latest generation of technology that has been revolutionizing the beauty industry for over a decade. With millions of treatments performed worldwide, Ultherapy PRIME is the most advanced FDA-cleared high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) device available.
One of the key advantages of Ultherapy PRIME is its advanced imaging technology. Unlike other treatments that rely on guesswork, Ultherapy PRIME uses high-resolution ultrasound imaging to provide real-time guidance. This allows our Orange County aesthetic nurses to precisely target the areas requiring the most attention, ensuring optimal results and minimizing discomfort.
In addition to its precision, Ultherapy PRIME also offers unparalleled skin penetration. Unlike lasers and radiofrequency treatments, Ultherapy PRIME can reach the deeper skin layers, crucial for achieving a significant lift and tightening effect. This unique capability is made possible by the high-intensity focused ultrasound energy that Ultherapy PRIME delivers.
According to its innovator, Merz Aesthetics, this latest and most advanced version of Ultherapy technology offers several key improvements over the previous version, including:
- 20% faster platform, allowing for more efficient treatments with less downtime
- Enhanced system performance, resulting in more consistent and reliable results
- Ergonomic advances, leading to a more comfortable experience
Ultherapy PRIME is currently quite an exclusive treatment, being relatively new. Dr. Taghva believes Ultherapy PRIME is a game-changer for non-surgical face lifting. She can now offer her patients in Orange County a personalized treatment plan that combines Ultherapy PRIME with other technologies like Thermage, Agnes/Liftyte, and Sculptra. This comprehensive approach can help achieve results that closely mimic a surgical facelift without having invasive procedures.
How Many Treatments Will I Need?
Ultherapy PRIME is a one-and-done treatment that gives you a noticeable lift without any downtime.
When Will I See Results & How Long Will They Last?
You’ll see immediate improvements after your Ultherapy treatment which will continue to improve over the next two to three months as your body produces new collagen and elastin. Results can last over a year, as the collagen stimulation induced by the treatment continues to boost skin quality over time.
Aftercare and Healing
Unlike surgical facelifts, Ultherapy doesn’t require incisions or downtime, allowing you to resume your normal activities immediately after treatment.
Here are our pro tips for the best healing after your Orange County Ultherapy PRIME treatment:
- Avoid hot activities like saunas, hot tubs, and intense workouts for a couple of days to give your skin time to recover.
- Use mild, non-irritating skin care products for the first week. Skip the harsh stuff like scrubs, toners, and strong acids.
- Slather on sunscreen with SPF 30 at least 20 minutes before going outside, and reapply every two hours. Wear a hat and cover the treated area when in the sun.
- Drink plenty of water and eat nutritious foods to support your body’s healing process.

Is Ultherapy PRIME® Safe?
