How your doctor decides

Your doctor first palpates your skin to check its thickness and the degree of fascia laxity, then decides the shot count and handpiece depth. If your skin is too thin or has a specific condition, your doctor may recommend addressing that first.

What you might want to know first

Process

After cleansing and applying numbing cream, your doctor operates the handpiece by facial zone to deliver ultrasound energy. The full session takes roughly an hour, depending on the area treated.

Pain

You'll feel noticeable stinging as the ultrasound energy is delivered. Pain tolerance varies, and topical numbing, nitrous sedation, or local injectable anesthesia can all be used to reduce discomfort.

Downtime

There's almost no downtime. A small number of people experience temporary swelling that resolves quickly, and you can go about your normal routine.

How long it lasts

Some people feel a tightening sensation right away; for most people, results become noticeable gradually over a month or more, and how long they last depends on your skin and rate of aging.

Actual results and sensation vary by person. Your doctor will explain what to expect for your skin at your consultation.
