Lift Without Surgery

What IS

What Is Ultherapy PRIME?

Ultherapy PRIME® is the next generation of non-surgical skin lifting from Merz Aesthetics - FDA-cleared to lift and tighten the face, neck, decollete, arms, and abdomen.

Unlike lasers or radiofrequency devices that work at the surface, Ultherapy PRIME uses Micro-Focused Ultrasound with Visualization (MFU-V) to reach the SMAS layer - the superficial muscular aponeurotic system. The SMAS is the same foundational layer plastic surgeons tighten in a facelift.

No incisions. No recovery time. No one knowing you did anything.

Just you - looking lifted, defined, and effortlessly refreshed.

How it Works

How Ultherapy PRIME Works

Ultherapy PRIME delivers focused ultrasound energy to the SMAS layer at 4.5mm depth - below the dermis and fat, where structural support originates.

At that depth, the energy creates Thermal Coagulation Points (TCPs) - tiny controlled heat zones at 65-70 degrees Celsius - triggering two biological responses:

Immediate collagen contraction - existing collagen fibers contract when heated, creating initial visible tightening in the weeks following treatment.
Long-term neocollagenesis - your body produces new collagen over the next 3-6 months, creating progressive, natural-looking lift that builds over time.

Real-Time Ultrasound Visualization

The PRIME system features a 72% clearer real-time visualization screen, allowing your provider to see the exact position of the SMAS layer, fat compartments, and nerves before and during treatment. This makes PRIME both safer and more precise than the original Ultherapy system.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions - Ultherapy PRIME

How is Ultherapy PRIME different from the original Ultherapy?

Ultherapy PRIME features 72% clearer real-time visualization, 20% faster treatment times, a significantly more comfortable experience, and expanded FDA clearance for the arms and abdomen - not available on the original Ultherapy device.

Is Ultherapy PRIME painful?

Most patients feel a deep warming sensation during treatment. PRIME is significantly more comfortable than the original Ultherapy system. Topical numbing cream is applied before every treatment.

How many treatments do I need?

One treatment per year. Ultherapy PRIME is designed as an annual collagen investment - not a series.

When will I see results?

Initial tightening may appear within weeks. Peak results develop over 3-6 months as new collagen forms and the SMAS layer responds.

Is there downtime?

None. You can return to your full schedule - work, dinner, events - immediately after treatment. Some clients experience mild redness that resolves within hours.

Is Ultherapy PRIME FDA-cleared?

Yes. FDA-cleared for the face, neck, decollete, upper arms, and abdomen.

How is it different from a facelift?

A facelift surgically tightens the SMAS layer. Ultherapy PRIME stimulates the same layer with focused ultrasound - producing lift through your body's natural collagen response, with no incisions, no anesthesia, and no recovery time.

How much does Ultherapy PRIME cost in NYC?

Pricing depends on the treatment area and protocol. Contact us for a personalized consultation and quote.
