Skin laxity does not only affect the face. Over time, changes in collagen can also leave the upper arms and abdomen looking looser or less firm than they once did.
At Millefiori Aesthetics, we now offer Ultherapy PRIME®—an advanced, non-invasive ultrasound treatment designed to lift and tighten the face while also improving the appearance of mild to moderate skin laxity on the upper arms and abdomen.
Using focused ultrasound energy and real-time visualization, Ultherapy PRIME stimulates your body’s natural production of collagen and elastin beneath the surface of the skin. There are no incisions, no needles, and no planned downtime.
Whether your concern is a softening jawline, loose skin beneath the chin, or a loss of firmness on the arms or abdomen, your treatment will be customized around your anatomy and goals.
What Is Ultherapy PRIME?
Ultherapy PRIME is a non-invasive skin lifting and tightening treatment that uses microfocused ultrasound energy to target the deeper structural layers beneath the skin.
Unlike treatments that primarily address the skin’s surface, Ultherapy PRIME delivers energy at precise depths to begin a natural collagen-remodeling response. Over the following weeks and months, newly produced collagen helps the treated skin gradually appear firmer, smoother, and more supported.
Ultherapy PRIME also allows your provider to visualize the tissue beneath the skin during treatment. This real-time imaging helps us determine exactly where energy should be placed and personalize the treatment to your unique anatomy.
What Is Different About Ultherapy PRIME?
Ultherapy PRIME builds upon the technology of traditional Ultherapy with faster imaging, clearer real-time visualization, and an improved treatment experience.
The upgraded system allows our providers to see the layers of tissue being treated with greater clarity, helping us deliver ultrasound energy precisely where it is needed. It also expands the treatment beyond the face, neck, and décolleté to include skin laxity on the upper arms and abdomen.
For patients, this means a highly customized treatment with natural-looking results and no planned downtime.
What Areas Can Ultherapy PRIME Treat?
Ultherapy PRIME can be used to address skin laxity and signs of collagen loss in several areas.
Face and Brow
Ultherapy PRIME can help lift and support areas of the face that have begun to soften over time. Treatment may help create a more refreshed appearance around the brow and improve the look of mild facial skin laxity without changing your natural features.
Under the Chin and Jawline
Loss of collagen can cause the jawline to appear softer and the skin beneath the chin to become less firm. Ultherapy PRIME targets the deeper support layers to gradually improve definition and create a firmer-looking lower face.
Neck
The neck is often one of the first areas to show visible collagen loss. Ultherapy PRIME can help improve the appearance of mild to moderate laxity and create a smoother, more supported look.
Décolleté
Ultherapy PRIME can be used to improve the appearance of lines and wrinkles across the upper chest, an area frequently affected by aging and sun exposure.
Upper Arms
Loose or crepey-looking skin on the upper arms can develop with age, hormonal changes, weight fluctuations, or a natural decline in collagen.
Ultherapy PRIME can treat both the front and back of the upper arms to improve the appearance of mild to moderate skin laxity. The goal is not to remove fat or dramatically reduce the size of the arms, but to help the skin appear firmer, smoother, and more toned.
Abdomen
Changes caused by aging, pregnancy, menopause, or weight fluctuations can leave the abdominal skin feeling less firm.
Ultherapy PRIME uses focused ultrasound energy to stimulate collagen beneath the skin and gradually improve the appearance of mild to moderate abdominal laxity. This treatment can be especially appealing to patients who want firmer-looking skin but are not ready for, or do not need, a surgical procedure.
Ultherapy PRIME does not remove significant excess skin and is not a weight-loss or fat-reduction treatment.
Benefits of Ultherapy PRIME
Face and Body Treatment
Ultherapy PRIME can address concerns on the brow, lower face, neck, décolleté, upper arms, and abdomen.
Real-Time Ultrasound Visualization
Your provider can see the layers beneath the skin during treatment, allowing energy to be delivered at the appropriate depth for your anatomy.
Natural Collagen Stimulation
Rather than creating an immediate or artificial-looking change, Ultherapy PRIME works with your body’s own collagen-building process.
Gradual, Natural-Looking Improvement
Results develop progressively as new collagen forms, helping you look firmer and more refreshed without looking dramatically different.
No Planned Downtime
Most patients can return to their normal routine following treatment. Temporary redness, swelling, tenderness, tingling, or sensitivity may occur.
Safe for All Skin Tones
Because the ultrasound energy is delivered beneath the surface of the skin, Ultherapy PRIME can be used across all skin tones.
Customized to You
Treatment depth, placement, and the number of ultrasound lines delivered will depend on the area being treated, your anatomy, the degree of laxity, and your individual goals.
Who Is a Good Candidate for Ultherapy PRIME?
Ultherapy PRIME may be a good option if you:
- Have mild to moderate skin laxity
- Have noticed a softer jawline or loose skin beneath the chin
- Want to improve firmness on the neck or décolleté
- Are bothered by loose or crepey-looking skin on the upper arms
- Have mild abdominal skin laxity related to aging, pregnancy, menopause, or weight changes
- Prefer a non-invasive treatment
- Want gradual, natural-looking improvement
- Cannot or do not want to take time away from your normal routine
Ultherapy PRIME may not be appropriate for patients with significant excess skin or pronounced laxity following major weight loss. In these cases, a surgical procedure may provide a more appropriate result.
A consultation is required so that we can evaluate your skin, discuss your goals, and determine whether Ultherapy PRIME is the right treatment for you.
Is Ultherapy PRIME a Fat-Reduction Treatment?
No. Ultherapy PRIME is designed to improve the appearance of skin laxity by stimulating collagen and elastin. It is not intended to produce weight loss, remove significant excess skin, or substantially reduce fat.
For the arms and abdomen, the treatment is best suited for patients who are generally comfortable with the size of the area but would like the overlying skin to appear firmer and more toned.
What Does the Treatment Feel Like?
During treatment, you may feel brief sensations of heat, tingling, or small pulses of energy as the ultrasound is delivered beneath the skin.
Comfort varies depending on the treatment area and the individual. Before beginning, our team will explain what to expect and review available comfort measures with you.
Is There Downtime?
Ultherapy PRIME requires no planned downtime, and most patients can return to their regular activities following treatment.
The skin may temporarily appear red or feel tender, tight, swollen, sensitive, or tingly. These effects are generally temporary, but every patient’s experience is different.
When Will I See Results?
Some patients notice an initial feeling of firmness after treatment, but Ultherapy PRIME is designed to create gradual improvement.
As the body produces and remodels collagen, the treated skin may continue to look firmer and more supported over the following weeks and months. Body results may become visible around the three-month mark and can continue evolving over time.
Individual results and timelines will vary based on the treatment area, degree of laxity, age, collagen response, and treatment plan.
How Many Treatments Will I Need?
Many patients receive Ultherapy PRIME as a single treatment. However, the number of treatments recommended will depend on your anatomy, the area being treated, the degree of skin laxity, and the result you hope to achieve.
Your provider will create a personalized plan during your consultation and discuss whether future maintenance treatments may be beneficial.
Why Choose Millefiori Aesthetics for Ultherapy PRIME?
Ultherapy PRIME is not a one-size-fits-all treatment. The quality of the result depends on thoughtful assessment, appropriate treatment depth, precise placement, and a plan built around the patient’s anatomy.
At Millefiori Aesthetics, we approach every Ultherapy PRIME treatment with intention. We carefully evaluate the areas you would like to improve, use real-time ultrasound visualization to guide treatment, and customize the number and placement of ultrasound lines based on your individual needs.
Our goal is not to make you look different. It is to help your skin appear firmer, more supported, and naturally refreshed.
