Ultraformer MPT

Micro and macro-focused ultrasound (HIFU) that works from the dermis to the muscular fascia — the same layer addressed in a surgical facelift — for firmness and contour on the face and body, without incisions.

How it works

Ultraformer MPT is a micro and macro-focused ultrasound (HIFU) technology that works on multiple layers of the skin — from the dermis to the muscular fascia (SMAS), the same layer addressed surgically in a traditional facelift.

The controlled heating of the tissue, to about 60°C internally, attracts fibroblasts — the cells responsible for producing new collagen — gradually replacing old, slack fibers with firmer, more organized collagen, without harming the surface of the skin.

Protocol and results

The protocol is individualized, adjusted according to the region, the degree of sagging and each patient's goal. On the body, it is usually recommended for the abdomen, arms and thighs, treating sagging and defining the contour; on the face, it works as a non-surgical lift, defining the facial contour and softening fine lines.

Results appear progressively, with continuous collagen production in the months following the session — a visible effect between 2 and 3 months, peaking between 3 and 6 months. The effect can last from 12 to 18 months, depending on each patient's care and habits, which is why many protocols recommend an annual maintenance session.

Frequently asked questions

Questions about Ultraformer MPT

How many sessions are needed?
It varies according to the area and the goal, defined during the assessment consultation. On the body, the protocol is usually 1 to 3 sessions at 4 to 6-week intervals; on the face, many protocols use just 1 session per year, since collagen stimulation is progressive and long-lasting.
When do results appear?
Progressively: the first effects appear between 2 and 3 months, with the maximum result between 3 and 6 months after the session, as new collagen is produced.
Does Ultraformer MPT hurt?
The sensation is one of warmth and small stings during the ultrasound pulses. The comfort level varies according to the area and each patient's sensitivity — the team can adjust the parameters to keep the session comfortable.
How long does the result last?
The effects can last from 12 to 18 months, depending on age, skin care and lifestyle habits. An annual maintenance session tends to prolong the result.
Can I treat face and body in the same protocol?
Yes. During the assessment consultation, Dra. Chris can combine facial and body areas within the same plan, according to your goal.
Who cannot have Ultraformer MPT?
Pregnant or breastfeeding women, people with metal implants or electronic devices in the area (such as a pacemaker), active infections or active autoimmune diseases.
