What is the difference between Ultherapy and JuveShape Ultra for tightening the skin on the face and the neck?

Question

Christian Halvorson, MD · Answer

Both Ultherapy and JuvaShape are non-invasive laser treatments used to tighten skin and smooth wrinkles. The main difference between the two is that Ultherapy uses ultrasound waves to deliver ultrasound energy to the skin’s foundational layer while JuvaShape uses radio frequency (RF) to deliver heat energy to renew and revitalize the skin. In most patients, only one treatment of Ultherapy is required with results being seen gradually over a 2-3 month period. For JuvaShape, patients are recommended to undergo about 6 treatments in order to see noticeable results. Our office offers Ultherapy, but has chosen not to offer JuvaShape at this time.  For RF tightening we prefer Exilis and Thermi-Tight.  We recommend consulting your dermatologist to discuss the best course of treatment.
