What Is Ultherapy?
Ultherapy is a non-invasive, non-surgical skin tightening treatment that uses micro-focused ultrasound to lift and firm the skin by stimulating collagen and elastin production.
Clinically Proven & FDA-Cleared
Ultherapy is FDA-cleared for lifting the:
- Face and brow area
- Under-chin region
- Neck
- Décolletage (chest)
It’s ideal for treating mild to moderate skin laxity, fine lines, and early signs of aging.
How Does Ultherapy Work?
- Focused Ultrasound
Ultherapy delivers energy to the SMAS layer—the same layer targeted in surgical facelifts—without damaging the skin’s surface.
- Collagen Regeneration
The ultrasound energy triggers the skin’s healing response, stimulating new collagen and elastin production for firmer, tighter skin over time.
- No Surgery Required
Unlike facelifts or other invasive procedures, Ultherapy is done without needles, incisions, or recovery time—offering natural, gradual results.

Is Ultherapy Painful? What to Expect & How to Manage Discomfort
While Ultherapy is a non-invasive procedure, some patients may experience mild to moderate discomfort during the treatment. The sensation varies based on individual pain tolerance and the area being treated.
What Does Ultherapy Feel Like?
During each pulse of ultrasound energy, patients often describe a brief tingling, heat, or prickling sensation beneath the skin. This is a sign that the collagen-building process is being activated in the deeper layers.
Discomfort is typically more noticeable in areas with thinner skin or less fat, such as:
- The jawline
- Under the chin
- Around the brow
The intensity is usually highest during energy delivery and subsides immediately after each pulse.
How Shine Dermatology Helps Manage Pain
Your comfort is a top priority. At Shine Dermatology, we offer several pain management options to ensure a smooth experience:
- Topical numbing cream: Applied before treatment to reduce surface sensitivity
- Oral pain relief (if required): Safe, doctor-approved medications may be offered if you're concerned about discomfort
- Experienced technique: Our dermatologists are highly skilled at adjusting treatment depth and pacing to minimize discomfort without compromising results
- Cooling and soothing measures: Ice packs and calming post-treatment care to ease any lingering sensitivity
Good to Know
- Any discomfort subsides immediately after the session ends.
- No downtime is needed—you can resume normal activities right away.
- Some patients feel a dull ache or tenderness for a few days, similar to post-exercise soreness, which is temporary and manageable.
