Oh Farah is an ultrasound therapy
treatment that focuses the ultrasound
deep into the dermis of the skin to
target the area normally targeted by
facelift it channels through the skin
without damaging the epidermis creating
deep channels of oxide to lift and
tighten this effect happens without any
damage and so no downtime the
preparation for this is very simple and
the skin is cleansed and mark tight in a
grid formation so that we can accurately
target the areas we want to tighten the
og sign causes collagen synthesis allows
the collagen to reorganize by laying
flat within the epidermis it also
tightens the collagen and helps the
existing collagen to be renewed and
strengthened as collagen degrades in the
skin as we become older the fibers of
the collagen where it was once tightly
coiled becomes loose loose Lawtons the
ultrasound therapy helps to target this
collagen making it recoil tighten and
firm the skin the old zero device uses
an imaging system called the deep sea
and this imaging device allows precise
energy delivery this position gives
added safety allowing the practitioner
to target the right areas of the skin
with the focused ultrasound it also
helps us to avoid areas where we don't
want to deposit the focused energy for
example along the jawline the area of
skin is slightly thinner and to avoid
depositing the energy on the bone which
would be painful for the patient we can
move the transducer all so that we can
see the right area to treat using the
imager
so we use all three transducers on quite
slacking skin we want to treat the
energy throughout the different areas of
the epidermis from the deepest right
through to the shallowest area allowing
the most amount of tightening
so the typical areas that patients want
to see tightening is quite often a full
face on and then there may be little
color charge but we can also break that
down into individual requirements the
most common treatment that I perform is
actually the lower face and upper neck
helps tighten the jawline in the jowls
and under the chin we can also do
smaller treatments like a Riley
very successful for those patients that
either don't want anti-wrinkle or the
anti-wrinkle isn't appropriate for them
we can use the ultrasound to help to
raise the eyebrows so the amount of
tightening and toning of this skin
hugely varies increase in speed so it
also depends on how much natural
collagen is present in the in the
tissues already so the better the
quality of the collagen already in the
skin quite often the better the outcome
the treatment itself is quite quick in
nature typically right about an hour to
90 minutes depending on the area of skin
to be treated all Farrah does have some
contraindications so reasons why you
couldn't possibly have the treatment and
these are all spoken about very
carefully during consultation the main
ones being innocent independent
diabetics
patients that may be pregnant or
breastfeeding and those patients that
may have heart issues or metal implants
but all of this has gone over in
consultation where it's explained there
a as the energy is a process through the
dermis and the collagen synthesis begins
there can be some discomfort and it
feels like a prickling energy sensation
within the skin the treatment area is
treated over and over again until the
right amount of energy has been
processed into the skin the warm
sensation and a bigger tingle can be
felt but we do help you to manage this
as a treatment goes along it's usually a
one-off treatment so you'll have your
treatments and and there's no no
follow-up you don't need to have a
repeat treatment and the other thing
that I think patients like more than
anything else is there's no downtime
some patients find that they have an
immediately tightening in the two or
three days after the treatments that the
biggest results are usually seen two to
three months after treatment as the
collagen renews and tightens and the
skin starts to firm when she's had your
treatment it's kind of turned back to
time a little bit according to the
collagen but this will then continue to
age along with your natural aging
process so some patients may like to
have a top-up treatment every year or
every 18 months to continue that
collagen synthesis
