Ultraformer MPT

Ultraformer MPT is an aesthetic treatment that uses High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU). This technology specifically targets areas of the skin with ultrasound energy at various depths to stimulate collagen production. This process helps in achieving a lifting and rejuvenating effect on the skin without needing surgical methods. The key feature of Ultraformer MPT is its MicroPulsed Transducer (MPT) technology, which delivers highly precise, micro-pulsed ultrasound waves. This allows for treatments to be customised according to individual skin types and concerns.

The science behind Ultraformer MPT

Ultraformer MPT works on the principle of HIFU, directing ultrasound energy to targeted depths within the skin. This energy application creates tiny points of heat damage, which in turn stimulates the production of collagen, a vital protein for skin elasticity and firmness.
The MicroPulsed Transducer technology of Ultraformer MPT enhances this by delivering energy more precisely. This precision allows the treatment to be both effective in promoting skin health and minimising discomfort and potential side effects associated with broader energy dispersal.
The use of Ultraformer MPT can significantly shorten the duration of each treatment session due to its efficient energy delivery system. This efficiency is important not only for the comfort of the patient, but also for achieving better results in less time compared to older technologies.

What can Ultraformer MPT Treat?

NU.U Clinic offers personalised Ultraformer MPT treatments tailored to meet individual skin conditions and aesthetic goals. At NU.U Clinic, each patient undergoes a thorough initial consultation to assess their specific skin needs and discuss their desired outcomes. Based on this assessment, the clinic's skilled practitioners customise the Ultraformer MPT procedure, adjusting the settings of the device to target different skin depths and address specific concerns such as sagging skin, fine lines, or uneven skin texture.

Sagging Skin

Ultraformer MPT effectively treats sagging skin, a common concern among ageing individuals. By stimulating deeper layers of the skin to produce new collagen, the treatment tightens and lifts areas like the jawline, neck, and eyebrows, giving a more youthful appearance.

Fine Lines and Wrinkles

This treatment is also beneficial for reducing fine lines and wrinkles. As the skin's collagen production increases, it naturally fills in wrinkles and smooths out the skin's surface, leading to a rejuvenated look.

Skin Laxity

Over time, skin can lose its tightness and elasticity. Ultraformer MPT addresses this issue by enhancing the skin's ability to regenerate collagen,thus improving firmness and reducing laxity across various areas of the body.

Uneven Skin Tone and Texture

By targeting and rejuvenating the deeper and surface layers of the skin, Ultraformer MPT helps in improving overall skin tone and texture, making it smoother and more uniform.

Benefits of Ultraformer MPT

Non-Invasive Treatment

Ultraformer MPT is completely non-invasive, eliminating risks associated with surgical interventions such as incisions and anaesthesia. This makes it a safe option for skin rejuvenation.

Minimal Downtime

Patients can immediately resume their daily routines post-treatment, making Ultraformer MPT an ideal choice for those with busy lifestyles who cannot accommodate a lengthy recovery period.

Customisable Treatments

The technology allows for adjustments in the depth and intensity of ultrasound energy, ensuring that each treatment is tailored to meet individual skin types and specific concerns, which enhances treatment effectiveness.

Promotes Natural Collagen Production

Ultraformer MPT stimulates the natural production of collagen, leading to long-term improvements in skin firmness, elasticity, and overall appearance, which continue to develop months after the treatment.

The Procedure of Ultraformer MPT

Before Procedure

The Ultraformer MPT procedure begins with a thorough consultation where a practitioner evaluates the patient's skin and discusses their aesthetic goals. During the treatment, the target area is cleaned, and a topical anaesthetic may be applied to ensure comfort.

During Procedure

The practitioner then uses the Ultraformer device, equipped with a specialised handpiece, to deliver precise ultrasound energy to the skin. This energy stimulates collagen production at various depths, depending on the patient’s needs.

After Procedure

The procedure is generally quick, typically lasting between 15 to 25 minutes, and patients can leave immediately afterward and return to their normal activities, with no special post-treatment care required apart from basic skin care such as sun protection.

Price and Number of Treatments Needed

Most patients typically require 1 to 3 sessions to achieve their desired results. The exact number can vary depending on the area being treated and the severity of the skin issues.
The cost of Ultraformer MPT treatments can vary significantly depending on the location, the clinic, the area being treated, and the number of sessions needed. On average, prices might range from $300 to $1,500 per session. It is advisable for potential patients to consult with multiple clinics to get detailed pricing information based on their specific treatment plan.
Patients considering Ultraformer MPT should discuss their expectations and budget with their practitioner during the initial consultation to ensure clarity and to plan the treatment course effectively.

FAQs

You may notice some initial effects immediately after your Ultraformer MPT treatment as the skin starts to feel tighter and more toned. However, the most significant improvements will occur gradually over the next two to three months as your body produces new collagen. The full effects are typically visible six months after the treatment, with skin appearing firmer and smoother.

The results from Ultraformer MPT can last approximately one year, depending on individual skin conditions and lifestyle factors. To maintain the benefits of the treatment, it is recommended to follow a healthy skincare regimen and consider follow-up sessions as advised by your practitioner. Regular treatments can help prolong the effects and keep your skin looking rejuvenated.

There is no downtime required after an Ultraformer MPT session, making it a convenient option for those with busy schedules. Most patients are able to immediately resume their normal activities. Some might experience slight redness or swelling in the treated area, but these symptoms are typically mild and resolve quickly.

Ultraformer MPT is generally safe for all skin types. However, the suitability can vary based on individual skin conditions and specific concerns. It is not recommended for individuals with severe cystic acne, active skin infections, or certain skin disorders that may affect the healing process. A consultation with a qualified healthcare provider is essential to assess whether Ultraformer MPT is the appropriate treatment for your skin type and condition.
