Ultherapy is an advanced procedure based on ultrasound technology. It helps patients achieve firmer, tauter, and more youthful skin without plastic surgery.
Many patients may not have a proper understanding of this cutting-edge non-invasive skin tightening procedure. Therefore, it is important for the treatment provider to explain various aspects of Ultherapy to them during the pre-treatment consultation.
Transparency
A dedicated med spa treatment provider will also offer the patient information on the costs of Ultherapy during the initial appointment to ensure that they make a sensible and astute decision.
Dr. Q Medical Spa, led by board certified plastic surgeon Dr. Suzanne Quardt provides Ultherapy skin tightening to patients in Palm Springs, Palm Desert, Rancho Mirage, and surrounding communities.
Cost Comparison with Surgery
Ultherapy may be significantly more cost effective and affordable in comparison to traditional skin tightening cosmetic surgery.
A surgical procedure involves various cost factors such as surgical venue expense, surgeon’s fee, anesthesia costs, and additional costs such as surgical accessories, prescription drugs, medical tests, and post-op consultations at the surgeon’s office.
However, Ultherapy does not involve many of these costs. The treatment provider can undertake this procedure without anesthesia and on an out-patient basis. Ultherapy can be safely and conveniently performed in-office.
In general, patients do not incur any post-treatment costs. Most patients do not need to take time off work. Due to the negligible risks of complication, the patient will not likely incur any unforeseen costs in the future.
Elements Affecting the Cost
Ultherapy med spa treatment costs can vary between practices depending on certain factors.
The geographical location of the practice is an important factor determining the cost. Busy urban centers and densely populated cities along the coastline usually have a higher average cost of living. This means that the cost of cosmetic treatments, such as Ultherapy, will also be higher in these regions in comparison to smaller towns.
The quality standards of the practice where the patient chooses to undergo Ultherapy treatment will also impact the cost. It is advisable for patients to seek advanced procedures such as Ultherapy from a reputed office which can manage such cutting-edge treatments in a safe manner and has highly-skilled staff to deliver beautiful outcomes.
Scale of Treatment
Patients can undergo Ultherapy on one or more facial areas such as the cheeks, brows, jaws, neck, eyelids, or chin. It can also be delivered to other areas of the body. The treatment costs will differ due to various reasons such as the extent of the treatment, the number of treatment sessions, and the time taken to complete the procedure.
Treating the entire face and neck may cost more than treatment in a specific area such as the lids or eyebrows.
Insurance and Financing
Patients usually undergo Ultherapy as an elective cosmetic procedure. This means that the patient’s insurer will likely not offer coverage for this procedure. But patients may consider various financing options to pay for the treatment in easy monthly installments.
