New procedures like Ulthera promises tighter, more youthful skin without the pain of needles or surgery. It utilizes ultrasound therapy to stimulate dormant collagen. Because these types of treatments relay your bodyâs own ability to make the collagen, results can vary based on individual factors such as age and history of sun exposure.
Procedures using radiofrequency energy such as Thermage have been around a longer period of time therefore have had the opportunity to make improvements on efficacy and comfort. Because of its long standing presence, it has always been a more reliable form of non-invasive skin tightening. Unlike these new ultrasound therapies, Thermage has sufficient scientific data supporting its ability to remodel the collagen long term and improve the contours of the face.
