LES PATIENTS CONSTATENT,<br />
EN PLUS DE L’EFFET LIFTANT,<br />
UNE AMÉLIORATION<br />
DE LA QUALITÉ DE LA PEAU.<br />
ALONG WITH THE LIFTING<br />
EFFECT, PATIENTS REPORT<br />
IMPROVED SKIN QUALITY.<br />
eyebrows. I use the 3 mm transducer to densify the lower eyelid<br />
and the 1.5 mm one to lift the tail of the eyebrow, concentrating<br />
on the Charpy fat pads. Before any treatment, I ask my patients<br />
if they have previously had any injections, as microfocused ultrasounds<br />
destroy hyaluronic acid.<br />
Like all stimulation techniques, Ultherapy ® does not reap identical<br />
results in all patients, even if they are the same age with<br />
the same indication. The first effects are visible six weeks after<br />
treatment, and gradually improve over the next three months.<br />
My patients notice that the results last between fifteen and<br />
eighteen months, on average, sometimes more.<br />
Cou et décolleté, le triangle d’or<br />
Sur un cou fripé et ridulé, mais pas trop musclé, où les cordes<br />
platysmales ne sont pas trop saillantes, on obtient d’excellents<br />
résultats durables (au moins dix-huit mois) en utilisant le<br />
transducteur 1.5 mm. Je pars de la zone sous-mentonnière<br />
pour terminer jusqu’au dessus de la clavicule. Pour le décolleté,<br />
après avoir fait du photo-rajeunissement pour enlever<br />
les taches pigmentaires, je fais trois passages avec les trois<br />
transducteurs pour traiter à la fois les rides profondes entre la<br />
poitrine et les ridules plus superficielles. Les résultats sont très<br />
satisfaisants et là aussi ce traitement a une patientèle acquise.<br />
Neck and décolletage, the golden triangle<br />
On a crumpled, wrinkled neck – though one that is not too muscular<br />
and whose platysma cords are not too prominent – we can<br />
achieve excellent, long-lasting results (at least eighteen months)<br />
by using the 1.5 mm transducer. I start underneath the<br />
chin and finish up just above the collarbone. For the décolletage,<br />
after performing photo rejuvenation to erase any pigmentation<br />
marks, I go over the area with all three transducers to treat both<br />
the deep wrinkles between the chest and the more superficial<br />
lines. The results are very good and thus this treatment has<br />
consistently garnered a loyal patient following.<br />
I have noticed that Ultherapy ® has earned a very loyal client<br />
base, since one in three of my patients have the treatment<br />
done again after two years, on average, which shows they are<br />
satisfied with the results. Having performed more than five<br />
hundred treatments now, I have never seen any burns, as the<br />
integrated ultrasound scanner makes the treatment more accurate<br />
and safer.<br />
Je constate que l’Ultherapy ® fidélise, puisque un patient<br />
sur trois redemande un traitement au bout de deux ans en<br />
moyenne, ce qui montre leur satisfaction vis-à-vis de cette<br />
technologie. Avec un recul sur plus de cinq cents traitements,<br />
je n’ai jamais eu une seule brûlure car l’échographe permet de<br />
faire un traitement plus précis et plus sûr.<br />
