Skin Tightening with Ultherapy at Pretty Please Aesthetics

If you’re starting to notice sagging skin or just want to give your face and neck a firmer, fresher look, Ultherapy could be a great fit. This non-invasive cosmetic procedure requires no needles or downtime and is tailored to support your skin’s natural collagen production.

Ultherapy is one of those quiet powerhouses when it comes to lifting and tightening the skin. At Pretty Please Aesthetics, we’re proud to offer Ultherapy Prime, the only practice in Sacramento and Roseville to do so. Our team is trained directly by the manufacturer, so you’ll receive expert care using the most advanced ultrasound technology available.

What is Ultherapy?

Ultherapy is an FDA-cleared skin tightening treatment that uses focused ultrasound energy to target the deeper layers of the skin. It’s the only non-invasive procedure that uses ultrasound imaging, allowing us to see the tissue we’re treating and deliver the energy exactly where it’s needed. This treatment stimulates collagen production below the skin’s surface, which helps tighten skin and improve strength and tone over time.

The procedure stimulates the body’s collagen-building process, encouraging new collagen to form in areas where existing collagen has weakened from the natural aging process or environmental factors like sun exposure. Ultherapy works deep in the underlying layers, similar to where a surgical facelift would focus, but without cutting or disrupting the skin.

Ultherapy Benefits

Ultherapy is one of our favorite ways to help clients feel more confident in their skin without changing their expressions or features. It delivers subtle, meaningful results for those dealing with mild to moderate skin laxity.

Here’s what our clients love most:

Firmer skin without downtime or cosmetic surgery
A lifted look in the brow, jawline, and neck
Softer lines and better texture on the chest
Gradual results that align with your body’s collagen-building process
One treatment can produce fresh collagen and offer results that last

What areas of the body can be treated with Ultherapy?

Ultherapy is commonly used on the face, neck, and chest, especially areas where the skin has started to sag or lose firmness. Clients often seek treatment for the brow area to lift hooded lids, under the chin to address loose skin, or around the jawline to restore definition. The chest is another go-to zone, where we smooth fine lines caused by aging or sun exposure.

Ultherapy Candidates

This ultrasound therapy is great for anyone noticing changes in their skin tone or elasticity due to age or external stressors. If you have mild to moderate skin laxity and want to improve firmness without jumping into more invasive options, you’re likely a good candidate.

It’s not recommended if you're pregnant, have an active skin condition in the treatment area, or certain medical issues that might affect healing. All of this is discussed during your consultation to make sure Ultherapy is the right choice for you.

What Issues Does Ultherapy Address?

Ultherapy is a solid option for lifting sagging skin, especially in areas affected by the natural protein breakdown that happens with age. Clients use it to refine the jawline, lift the brow area, reduce loose neck skin, and smooth fine lines or crepiness across the chest. It also helps reinforce skin strength in spots where collagen breaks down faster due to the aging process or environmental exposure.

Ultherapy Prime vs. Classic Ultherapy

At Pretty Please, we offer both versions, but Ultherapy Prime is a client favorite. It’s faster, more comfortable, and just as effective as the original Ultherapy treatment. Thanks to improved ultrasound imaging and quicker pulse delivery, we can treat your skin more precisely in less time. Whether you go with the Prime or classic version, the treatment produces fresh collagen in the deep tissue targeted without surgery.

Consultation and Preparation

Your Ultherapy journey starts with a one-on-one consultation. We’ll assess your skin, talk through your goals, and design a plan that matches your needs. There's no major prep beyond avoiding sunburn or aggressive skin treatments beforehand. On treatment day, we’ll apply a topical numbing cream and ultrasound gel to keep things comfortable while the energy is delivered.

The Ultherapy Procedure

During your treatment, we use a small handheld device to deliver heat energy deep below the skin using microfocused ultrasound. This is where the real work happens: it reaches the layers under the skin’s surface to stimulate collagen deep within. Most sessions last between 60 and 90 minutes, depending on the area. As for what the Ultherapy treatment feels like? You might notice warmth or a tapping sensation, but it’s usually well tolerated, especially with numbing.

Results, Recovery, and Aftercare

One of the best parts of Ultherapy is how easy recovery is. There’s minimal downtime, and you can go back to your normal activities immediately. Some common post-procedural effects include slight swelling, slight redness, or tenderness, nothing that typically requires downtime, and they usually resolve quickly. You’ll begin to see results develop over two to six months as your body builds new collagen, and many clients return for future touch-up treatments once a year to maintain youthful skin.

How Much Does Ultherapy Cost?

Ultherapy pricing varies depending on how many areas you’re treating and whether you’re using Ultherapy or Ultherapy Prime. Since every skin concern and individual goal is unique, we’ll provide a customized quote during your consultation. Costs include the medical procedure itself, consultation, topical numbing, and any aftercare support. Pricing can differ slightly between our Sacramento and Roseville locations.
