Looking in the mirror and noticing looser skin around your jawline, neck, or brows can be frustrating—especially when you feel much younger than what your reflection shows. While the idea of a surgical facelift may not feel right for everyone, today’s non-invasive treatments offer alternatives that are both effective and more aligned with modern lifestyles. One of the most researched and trusted options for those seeking subtle yet long-lasting improvement is Ultherapy.
Offered at 1Aesthetic, Ultherapy in Hoboken, NJ, and Weehawken, NJ is helping clients restore a firmer, more youthful appearance without surgery or downtime. If you’ve been wondering how it works and whether it’s worth considering, this guide will walk you through what Ultherapy does, who it’s ideal for, and what you can expect during and after treatment.
What Is Ultherapy?
Ultherapy is a non-invasive cosmetic procedure that uses focused ultrasound energy to stimulate collagen production deep within the skin. It is FDA-cleared and specifically designed to lift and tighten areas like the cheeks, jawline, neck, and brow, as well as improve fine lines on the chest.
Unlike surface treatments that only target the uppermost skin layers, Ultherapy facial treatment reaches the deep foundational layers—the same ones typically addressed during a surgical facelift—without cutting or disrupting the skin’s surface. This makes it an ideal option for those seeking a skin tightening treatment with minimal recovery time and natural-looking results.
Benefits of Ultherapy
What makes Ultherapy unique is its ability to activate your body’s natural regenerative process without surgery. This not only provides a more comfortable experience but also delivers results that build gradually, helping your skin look fresher and firmer over time.
Here are a few key benefits of choosing Ultherapy for jawline and neck, brows, or chest:
- Non-invasive and non-surgical: No incisions, anesthesia, or downtime required
- Natural collagen production: Boosts your skin’s firmness from within
- Long-lasting improvements: Results can last up to two years
- Precision treatment: Focused ultrasound energy targets exact depths for consistent lifting
- Minimal side effects: Redness or swelling may occur but typically resolves quickly
- Fits into your lifestyle: Most patients resume normal activities the same day
If you’ve been searching for a sagging skin solution that doesn’t require weeks of recovery or dramatic interventions, Ultherapy may offer the balance you’re looking for.
Who Is This Best For?
Ultherapy proves ideal for individuals experiencing slight to moderate skin relaxation who prefer non-surgical tightening methods. Suitable candidates are usually aged 30 to 60 and have recognized that their skin doesn’t maintain the firmness and lift it once possessed.
You might be a good fit if:
- You’re beginning to see loose skin under the chin or along the jawline
- Your brows are starting to droop, giving you a tired look
- The skin on your neck or chest is thinning or creased
- You prefer gradual, natural-looking improvements
- You’re not ready for (or interested in) surgical solutions

What to Expect (Process, Timeline, Results)
Pre-Treatment Preparation
Prior to your Ultherapy facial treatment, you’ll meet with a provider to assess your goals and determine which areas to treat. They may recommend avoiding blood-thinning medications and skin irritants a few days beforehand. Arrive with clean, makeup-free skin, and discuss any discomfort concerns so appropriate measures—like topical numbing—can be prepared.
Treatment Day
Ultherapy sessions typically last 60 to 90 minutes, depending on the areas treated. A handheld device delivers ultrasound energy beneath the surface of the skin to targeted layers, initiating the process known as Collagen stimulation Ultherapy. While some patients feel a warming or tingling sensation, any discomfort is brief and manageable.
Recovery and Downtime
There’s virtually no downtime. You can go back to work, run errands, or enjoy a meal right after treatment. Minor swelling, redness, or sensitivity might occur, but these side effects usually subside within a day or two.
Results Timeline
Ultherapy results are not instant—and that’s a good thing. Because the treatment relies on your body’s natural collagen-building abilities, noticeable lifting and firming typically appear gradually over two to three months. Most clients see full improvement by the six-month mark, and results can last up to two years depending on your skin condition and aging process.
FAQs & Myths Debunked
Is Ultherapy painful?
Most patients experience mild discomfort during the treatment, often described as a tingling or heat sensation. Topical numbing or oral medication can be used to enhance comfort.
When will I see results from Ultherapy?
You may notice some early tightening right after your session, but the full effects appear gradually over 2–3 months as collagen rebuilds the skin’s structure.
How long do Ultherapy results last?
With proper care, Ultherapy results can last up to two years. Maintenance sessions are recommended every 12–24 months based on your skin’s response.
Is Ultherapy safe for all skin types?
Yes. Ultherapy uses ultrasound technology—not light or lasers—making it suitable for all skin tones and types.
Can Ultherapy replace a facelift?
While Ultherapy doesn’t replicate the dramatic changes of a surgical facelift, it’s an excellent option for those looking for subtle lifting and tightening without downtime.
