Ultherapy in San Mateo: The Gold Standard for Non-Invasive Skin Tightening at LuminaSkin

We’re so excited to bring Ultherapy® to LuminaSkin in downtown San Mateo! This groundbreaking, non-invasive treatment is considered the gold standard in non-surgical skin tightening and lifting—with zero downtime. Whether you’re seeing early signs of skin laxity or want to stay ahead of aging, Ultherapy may be your new favorite treatment.

Let’s dive into how it works, who it’s for, and what to expect.

What Is Ultherapy and How Does It Work?

Ultherapy uses advanced focused ultrasound technology to stimulate your body’s natural collagen production deep beneath the skin’s surface. Unlike lasers, which treat superficial layers, Ultherapy bypasses the skin entirely to target the deeper foundational layers—the same layers addressed during cosmetic surgery, but without incisions or downtime.

What Areas Can Be Treated with Ultherapy?

Brow and forehead
Lower face and jawline
Neck
Décolletage (chest)

It's FDA-cleared, completely non-invasive, and ideal for lifting, tightening, and refreshing the skin naturally.

What to Expect During Your Ultherapy Treatment

We prioritize your comfort throughout your entire Ultherapy experience.

We apply a topical numbing cream to minimize discomfort.
Treatment time varies by area but usually ranges from 30 to 90 minutes.
You can return to your daily routine immediately after your appointment—no downtime required.

Ultherapy Recovery & Results

One of the best things about Ultherapy? No recovery time.

You might experience:

Temporary redness
Mild swelling, tenderness, or numbness

These side effects are minimal and typically subside quickly.

When Will I See Results?

Gradual lifting and tightening occurs over 2–3 months
Full results are visible around the 6-month mark
Results can last 12–18 months, depending on your skin’s natural aging process

Is Ultherapy Right for You?

Ultherapy is a great choice if you:

Have mild to moderate skin laxity
Want to lift and tighten without surgery
Prefer natural-looking, gradual results
Want to target the brow, jawline, neck, or chest
Improves definition of the jawline & reduces jowls

If you have more advanced sagging or excess skin, we may recommend combination treatments for best results. Schedule a consultation to explore your options.
