Ultherapy PRIME Sydney in Chatswood and Hurstville
A more open-looking brow, a beautifully defined jawline and a smoother-looking neck can subtly refresh the whole face. Ultherapy PRIME is a non-invasive ultrasound skin-tightening treatment that supports gradual lifting and firming without surgery or needles entering the skin.
At Medical Aesthetics 360, every treatment begins with a careful assessment of your face, skin and the changes you would like to see. Real-time ultrasound imaging helps us plan a treatment that respects your natural features. Consultations are available at our Chatswood clinic or Hurstville clinic. As we offer several non-surgical skin-tightening options, we can recommend the approach that is most appropriate for you.
A thoughtful plan begins with understanding your face
A softer jawline, a heavier-looking lower face or looseness through the neck can have different causes. We look at the whole picture before deciding whether Ultherapy PRIME is the right choice.
Understand the change
We consider skin laxity, facial volume, under-chin fullness, texture and muscle movement to understand what is shaping the concern.
Respect your natural structure
Your facial proportions guide the treatment areas, depths and pattern, helping the plan remain balanced and individual.
Choose the right technology
We can compare ultrasound, radiofrequency and other approaches, then explain which option best suits your skin and goals.
Plan for a refined result
We discuss the change you may realistically see, along with comfort, recovery, risks, review timing and personalised cost.
How Ultherapy PRIME ultrasound skin tightening works
Ultherapy PRIME combines microfocused ultrasound with real-time imaging. This allows the treating clinician to see the tissue beneath your skin, select the appropriate layer and personalise treatment across each chosen area.
At carefully selected depths, focused ultrasound creates precise points of energy designed to stimulate your body's natural collagen response while leaving the skin's surface intact. As this response develops, the treated area may look gradually firmer and more defined. Ultherapy cannot remove excess skin or reproduce the structural change of a surgical lift.
A 2025 PubMed-indexed systematic review and meta-analysis of 42 studies reported aesthetic improvement and patient satisfaction after microfocused ultrasound with visualisation. The review also reported moderate treatment discomfort and temporary effects. Results still vary, and further well-designed research remains important.
You can also read more about the technology on the Australian Ultherapy PRIME website.
See before treating
Real-time imaging provides a clear view of tissue beneath the skin before energy is delivered.
Plan the right depth
Treatment depth and placement are chosen for the area being treated and your individual anatomy.
Treat beneath the surface
Focused ultrasound reaches the planned tissue layer without incisions or needles entering the skin.
Allow change to unfold
Collagen remodelling takes time, allowing the result to develop gradually before it is reviewed.
Could Ultherapy PRIME suit your face, jawline or neck?
Ultherapy PRIME may be considered if mild to moderate laxity is beginning to soften your features and you would prefer a gradual, non-surgical approach. People often enquire about:
- A brow that is beginning to look lower or heavier
- Early jowling or a softer-looking jawline
- Loose-looking skin beneath the chin
- Mild to moderate looseness through the neck
- A gradual, natural-looking refresh without surgery
Ultherapy may not be the right choice when laxity is advanced, a surgical degree of change is desired or the concern is mainly caused by volume, fullness or muscle activity. Your medical history, skin condition, previous procedures and any materials or implants near the area must also be considered.
If another factor is shaping the area, your doctor may instead discuss double-chin treatment, jawline sculpting or platysma neck-band treatment.
How Ultherapy PRIME compares with other options
Ultrasound, radiofrequency and RF microneedling work in different ways and at different tissue levels. We help you compare them in relation to your skin, desired change, comfort and recovery.
Ultherapy PRIME
Ultherapy PRIME combines microfocused ultrasound with real-time visualisation for selected brow, lower-face, jawline, under-chin and neck laxity. Discover how it works.
Thermage FLX and XERF
These needle-free radiofrequency treatments may be considered when the aim is gradual firmness and collagen support. Explore Thermage FLX and XERF for more detail.
Sofwave and HIFU
These ultrasound platforms use different treatment levels and features. Learn more about Sofwave and HIFU to understand how they differ.
Morpheus8
When pores, scarring or uneven texture are also important, Morpheus8 may be considered as a different, needle-based approach.
