How Ultherapy + Thermage works

A staged combination of image-guided focused ultrasound and monopolar RF

Ultrasound concentrates energy at a selected depth, while RF delivers heat to tissue. First assess whether there is a reason to combine the treatments, considering cumulative stimulation in the same area and potential volume loss. Skin thickness and pain sensitivity determine whether they are performed together or on separate days.

Expected changes and suitable candidates

Evaluate deep-tissue sagging separately from surface skin laxity, assign each device a role and control overlapping heat exposure

Considered when sagging and loss of skin firmness coexist. Combining devices is not always the better choice if one device can address the goal or the face has little volume.

We assess the gap between your current condition and desired changes, and discuss the treatment's scope and limitations. Individual responses can differ.

Number of sessions, intervals and duration

The recovery patterns of both devices are considered together. Initial swelling or pulling is not treated as the final result; after adequate observation, only areas needing further correction are reassessed.

Planning before and after treatment

  1. Consultation: share your medical history, past treatments and important dates.
  2. Planning: confirm the treatment areas, products or devices and recovery plan.
  3. Follow-up: follow the aftercare instructions and contact a medical institution about unusual symptoms.

Possible side effects and precautions

Energy-based procedures can cause redness, swelling, pain or temporary changes in sensation. Depending on the device and settings, burns, changes in skin color or uneven skin texture may occur, so skin condition and treatment history are reviewed first.

Pregnancy, breastfeeding, inflammation at the treatment site, implanted devices and medication can affect suitability. A clinician should assess these according to the guidance for the particular product and device.

Ultherapy + Thermage prices and costs

Final cost depends on the exact product or device, area, amount, number of sessions and any additional procedures. Check VAT inclusion and event eligibility conditions together.
