What Is the Ulthera Prime?
Ulthera Prime is real-time SMAS-layer focused ultrasound lifting with live ultrasound imaging — allowing the treating physician to visualize the exact tissue layers being targeted during treatment. This precision imaging capability distinguishes Ulthera from other HIFU devices.
By seeing exactly where energy is being delivered, Ulthera Prime achieves the most accurate SMAS-layer targeting available in non-surgical lifting today.
- Real-time ultrasound imaging during treatment
- Precise SMAS-layer targeting
- FDA-cleared for eyebrow, neck, and chin lifting
- Clinically proven results
What's Included in the Ulthera Prime?
Why Choose the Ulthera Prime?
Ulthera is the only HIFU device cleared by the FDA for non-surgical brow lifting, neck tightening, and chin improvement. The live imaging capability — absent in most HIFU competitors — means every pulse is placed with verified precision, not estimation.
- Only FDA-cleared lifting HIFU device
- Real-time imaging for verified precision
- The most clinically studied non-surgical lifting treatment
How Ulthera Prime Works
The Ulthera handpiece projects live ultrasound imaging of the tissue layers being treated — allowing the physician to visualize exactly where each focal point of energy lands. This ensures energy reaches the SMAS layer without hitting nerves or blood vessels.
Focused ultrasound creates precise micro-thermal zones at 1.5mm, 3.0mm, and 4.5mm depths. Each zone triggers a wound-healing response: collagen contracts immediately, and new collagen forms over 3–6 months — gradually lifting and repositioning the treated tissue.
