Skin & Laser
Quick answerUltherapy uses imaging-guided focused ultrasound to lift the deepest supporting layer in usually one session. Radiofrequency treatments such as Morpheus8, Forma, Iced RF and Venus Legacy heat the dermis to tighten and firm, usually over several sessions, and Morpheus8 also improves texture and scars. They can be combined.
