Ultherapy® in Great Neck, NY

If your skin is not as firm as you want it to be, Bodian Dermatology offers Ultherapy to help improve your skin's laxity. This noninvasive intervention addresses loose skin on the face, neck, and décolletage. Approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), Ultherapy's energy from ultrasound waves can tighten your skin in a short treatment session. After your session and as your skin begins to heal itself, your body goes into a natural collagen production mode to strengthen the skin. Founding dermatologist Dr. Adam Bodian is proud to provide Ultherapy to Great Neck, NY patients. This procedure can be used along with other skin rejuvenation procedures, such as laser skin resurfacing or an injectable, to leave your skin looking softer and younger.

Benefits of Ultherapy treatments performed by Dr. Bodian or a member of his skilled team at Bodian Dermatology in Great Neck, NY may include:

• Elevated, rejuvenated skin
• A solution without the recovery of a surgical treatment
• Stimulation of the body's natural healing process
• Generation of new collagen in the body
• Personalized and effective treatments

Men and women can both benefit from Ultherapy. If you have noticed that the skin on your face has become less firm with mild to medium wrinkles (around the mouth, eyes, and brow), or notice a slight jowl droop, you may be an ideal candidate for Ultherapy. If you have more severe sagging or deeper wrinkles and lines, a surgical facelift may be a better choice for your needs.

When you get to our office, you will be asked to relax in one of our private treatment rooms where we will prepare your treatment area, which can include the application of a numbing agent. In the session, a handheld device that uses energy from ultrasound waves will be passed over your skin. Depending on how many areas of skin you are having treated, your procedure may last around 1 – 2 hours. 

After your procedure, it is common for your skin to look somewhat red and inflamed. You can apply cold compresses and take a nonprescription pain reliever to reduce the pain and inflammation. You can put on makeup after your treatment and get back to your daily activities. This cosmetic procedure will not immediately show visible results. You will need time for the treated skin to heal and adjust after the Ultherapy treatment. With the boost of collagen, your skin will be more toned in about 6 – 8 months.

Which areas can Ultherapy target?

Ultherapy treatment at Bodian Dermatology is effective on various areas, such as the neck, chest, and face, and is cleared by the FDA for tightening loose skin and providing a youthful appearance. It's ideal for reducing signs of aging or preventing the emergence of wrinkles and lines.

When will I notice results from Ultherapy?

Immediate results likely won't evident post-treatment; noticeable improvements typically appear over a few months. Many patients choose a follow-up session approximately 12 months later for optimal outcomes.

How many Ultherapy sessions are necessary?

The number of sessions required depends on individual skin conditions and aesthetic objectives. Generally, those with good skin tone often achieve significant results with just one treatment, while individuals with more pronounced signs of aging may require multiple sessions to achieve desired outcomes.

If you would like the skin on your chest, face, chin, and neck to be fabulously toned without surgery, we invite you to treat yourself to Ultherapy at Bodian Dermatology. Our ultrasound technique can tighten your skin without any downtime. We can discuss this technique more during your private consultation with Dr. Bodian in our Great Neck, NY office.
