At Melbourne Clinical Laser, we offer Ultherapy®, a non-invasive treatment that uses focused ultrasound technology to target areas beneath the skin without surgery.
Ultherapy works by gently heating selected tissue layers, helping to stimulate the body’s natural collagen production. Over time, this may support firmer, smoother-looking skin.
Ultherapy is commonly used for areas such as the face, eyebrows, neck, under the chin and décolletage. It may be suitable for individuals considering a non-surgical facelift in Melbourne.
Ultherapy® uses focused ultrasound energy, a technology that has been used safely in medical imaging for many decades. The Ultherapy® device is cleared by the U.S. FDA and included on the Australian Register of Therapeutic Goods. At Melbourne Clinical Laser, treatments are performed using genuine Ultherapy® equipment by trained and qualified professionals. Your practitioner will assess your suitability, discuss potential risks and explain expected outcomes during consultation.
At Melbourne Clinical Laser, we use Ultherapy Prime because it supports precise, consultation-based treatment planning using focused ultrasound technology. It allows trained practitioners to assess targeted areas and deliver treatment beneath the skin without surgery.
