Merz Aesthetics Philippines introduces Ultherapy, the gold standard for nonsurgical lifting and skin tightening. The only FDA-cleared, non-invasive procedure uses micro-focused ultrasound with real-time visualization to lift the skin on one’s brow, chin and neck, and to improve fine lines and wrinkles on the décolletage.
With the ability to see in real-time, Dr. Jonathan Yu, board certified dermatologist who is currently a member of the American Academy of Dermatology and the American Society for Laser Medicine and Surgery, said that one’s treatment provider can maximize the value of each shot delivered while ensuring safety.
“It is the best possible treatment for firming and tightening in the market,” added Yu, who also has over 20 years of experience in aesthetic dermatology.
“With over 50 peer-reviewed publications, it has consistently delivered the desired results with maximum safety and comfort for the patients,” he said.
The leading premium ultrasound skin lifting treatment is considered the gold standard by experts because current new devices have been trying to replicate its results and even comparing treatment outcomes with it, and done once yearly over lunch, he added.
If one wants to achieve a firmer, tighter-looking skin with superior lifting, the said procedure is the technology that can accomplish this. “Many devices are currently in the market, and in my experience, nothing has come close to Ultherapy,” Yu stressed.
According to Yu, many devices try to copy what the procedure can do, but only the real one has active visualization.
“The fake devices only have a static picture, and we don’t even know if they can deliver the right amount of energy to the correct layer of the skin,” he said, adding if one undergoes treatment with a fake device, one can run the risk of burns or, worse, other treatment complications like nerve damage.
“You treat only the appropriate tissue while being able to avoid those that will lead to undesired outcomes,” he pointed out.
Over two million skin lift treatments in more than 80 countries worldwide have experienced over 95 percent patient satisfaction one year after treatment that is why it is the gold standard, Yu noted.
Jorge Libanan, Merz Aesthetics general manager, said the treatment has become a household name and favorite treatment among Filipinos.
“When we discovered that a high number of people in Asia Pacific still find it hard to appreciate their beauty or even pay themselves a compliment, we began our quest to challenge the unrealistic ideals and standards of the beauty industry,” Libanan said.
Post-lockdown, the global aesthetics company is advocating non-invasive procedures that will give one a more natural and enhanced version of herself and start regaining her confidence, he said.
“Very soon, we will launch a campaign highlighting that real beauty is never just skin deep. It starts from within — your own unique shade of #BeYOUtiful,” he added.
Cost of the treatment depends on one’s treatment plan and needs. Patients are warned of risky counterfeits and have to look for the Ultherapy authenticity seal at the clinic to ensure they get real and trusted results.
