The Ulthera device has been cleared by the FDA after safety was demonstrated in clinical studies. Over 100,000 treatments have been performed safely worldwide. Ultrasound energy has a proven track record throughout many specialties in medicine.

Ulthera is the first and only ultrasound energy-based device that has been FDA-cleared with a non-invasive face ‘lift’ indication. It delivers energy through focused ultrasound to the deep tissues, in order to create a tightening and lifting effect. The growth of new collagen is also stimulated for additional rejuvenation.

Ultherapy is an FDA-approved treatment that uses ultrasound to stimulate collagen production and improve the overall appearance of the face and neck. The increase in collagen can tighten and lift the skin and smooth out lines and wrinkles to create a more youthful appearance.

Q: What problem areas does Ultherapy target?

Ultherapy addresses loose or sagging skin, in addition to relaxed deeper tissues. Ultherapy can lift the brow, which can improve excess skin in the upper eyelid and give a more refreshed look to the upper face. In the midface, tightening can improve the nasolabial folds, jowls, creases, and jawline. Treatment around the mouth (the peri-oral region) can improve fine lines and wrinkles. Ultherapy treatment of the neck can tighten the skin and muscles of the neck to improve the chin and angle of the neck. Finally, treatment of the upper chest in women can help smooth out fine wrinkling and tighten the décolleté region.

Q: Is there any downtime after an Ultherapy treatment?

There is no downtime after treatment, and patients may return to their normal activities. There may be some mild soreness in the treated areas for a couple of weeks following treatment.

Q: How do I know if Ultherapy is right for me?

To learn if Ultherapy is right for you, please call us to schedule a complimentary consultation with our Ultherapy Specialist. Our office offers a number of different non-surgical treatments. Based on a patient’s desires and needs, a customized treatment plan will be created.

Q: Does Ultherapy require any special training or experience?

All energy-based devices, such as Ultherapy, require practitioner experience in order to achieve the absolute best results. Dr. Greene’s Ultherapy Specialist has undergone extensive training in advanced Ultherapy techniques.

Q: Are the treatments with Ultherapy painful?

Ultherapy recently had a software upgrade called ‘Ultherapy Amplify’ that makes the treatment more comfortable. While comfort thresholds vary from patient to patient, most report that the Ultherapy procedure is quite tolerable. If any discomfort occurs, this sensation is temporary and is a signal that the collagen-building process has been initiated. We take measures to minimized any discomfort and make the experience as pleasant as possible.

Q: How long until I see results from Ultherapy?

Ultimate lifting and tightening gradually improve over a period of 2-3 months, as weaker collagen is replaced with new, more elastic collagen. As the collagen-building process continues, patients may continue to notice further improvements for up to 6 months following treatment.

Q: How many treatments does it take?

The majority of patients need only one treatment; however, depending on the degree of laxity present, some patients may benefit from an additional treatment.

Q: Can Ultherapy be combined with facial fillers?

Ultherapy can be combined with facial fillers. In fact, in order to address both facial laxity and volume loss, Dr. Greene often recommends combining an Ultherapy treatment with volumizing fillers such as Voluma or Sculptra to achieve more dramatic results.

Ultherapy is a non-invasive procedure that uses focused ultrasound energy and your body’s natural healing response to lift, tone, and tighten loose skin. It remains the only FDA-cleared device using ultrasound energy with a non-invasive face-lift indication.

In a single treatment, Ultherapy stimulates and strengthens collagen deep within the skin to restore firmness and elasticity, achieving a more defined jawline, tighter neck, lifted brows, and refreshed eyes all without surgery or downtime.

Now Introducing: The Ultherapy V-Lift Technique

At GreeneMD, we’re proud to offer the Ultherapy V-Lift, a refined treatment protocol that enhances traditional Ultherapy results by precisely targeting the SMAS (Superficial Muscular Aponeurotic System), the same foundational layer lifted during a facelift surgery.

The V-Lift creates an internal “V-strap” effect that tightens and sculpts the lower face and jawline for a beautifully contoured, youthful appearance, minimizing surface inflammation.

Benefits of the V-Lift Non-Invasive Treatment

Enhanced jawline definition and improved lower-face contour
Less surface irritation or redness compared to traditional settings
Natural lifting effect that develops gradually over 3–6 months
Ideal for patients seeking a subtle way to tighten skin without added volume

This advanced protocol allows us to personalize your Ultherapy treatment for deeper, more precise lifting, ideal for early to moderate skin laxity along the lower face, jowls, and neck.

How Ultherapy Treats Deeper Layers

A smooth applicator is placed on the skin to deliver tiny, focused deposits of ultrasound energy at specific depths below the skin’s surface. This energy bypasses the epidermis and reaches deep foundational tissues, stimulating the body’s natural collagen production where it matters most.

Unlike lasers, which target superficial layers, Ultherapy targets the SMAS and platysma — the same structural layers addressed in a surgical procedure such as a facelift. By delivering the right amount of energy at the right depth, Ultherapy lifts and tightens these deeper tissues for natural, long-lasting rejuvenation.

With the addition of the V-Lift protocol, treatment can now be tailored to focus energy even more selectively, enhancing the lower-face and neck definition for a sculpted “V-shape” lift.

Who Is a Candidate for Ultherapy or V-Lift?

You may be a good candidate if you notice:

Mild to moderate laxity or sagging skin in the face, neck, or jawline
Excess skin causing lowered eyebrows or hooded eyelids
Flattening of the mid-cheek, nasolabial folds, or early jowls
A preference for natural results without surgery or fillers

While patients of all ages can benefit, those with more advanced laxity may require additional treatment modalities. During your consultation, we’ll determine whether standard Ultherapy, the new V-Lift technique, or a combination of both will provide the best outcome.

What to Expect

Treatment Time: Approximately 30–60 minutes
Downtime: None; patients may resume normal activities immediately
Sensation: Mild warmth or tingling during energy delivery
Recovery Period: Possible slight swelling or tenderness for a few days
Results: Initial tightening can be seen shortly after treatment, with progressive lift and definition developing over the next 2–3 months. Some patients continue to improve for up to 6 months as new collagen matures.
