Ultherapy Treatment in Vancouver
What is Ultherapy?
Ultherapy is a non-invasive anti-aging treatment designed to improve the appearance of wrinkles, sagging, and skin laxity. This procedure utilizes advanced ultrasound technology to stimulate collagen production, resulting in lifted and tightened skin.
At Skin Matters, we're not just experts in Ultherapy; we're the trailblazers. As the first clinic in Vancouver to offer Ultherapy, we have a deep understanding and experience in harnessing this cutting-edge technology to rejuvenate and firm your skin, ensuring you receive the most effective results.
Ultherapy begins by applying a special gel to the treatment area. The ultrasound device used in Ultherapy then moves over the targeted areas at different depths. This process targets various signs of aging, delivering energy beneath the skin’s surface to promote collagen production and renewal. As a result, the skin gradually regains a youthful glow and firmness.
Ultherapy can treat the face, brows, jawline, and neck - where you often see signs of aging.
The cost of your Ultherapy treatment depends entirely on the severity of your concerns, your treatment plan, and the areas you would like to treat. You will learn about the cost of your treatment during your Skin Matters consultation. To learn more about Ultherapy, please schedule a short consultation with our friendly staff at Skin Matters.

How to Prepare for Your Ultherapy Treatment

While Ultherapy boasts little to no downtime, you can resume your regular activities immediately following your procedure, such as work, exercise, and social activities. However, you will have to be patient to see the first results of your treatment and can optimize your results by:
- Avoid prolonged sun exposure for the first few days.
- Avoid smoking for the first week.
- Maintain a moisturizing skincare regimen.
- Stay hydrated.
- Avoid harsh exfoliants and makeup for the first few days.
