What Makes Ultherapy PRIME Different?

Ultherapy PRIME® represents the latest advancement in ultrasound skin lifting technology with improvements that make treatments more precise and comfortable.

Key benefits include:

• Real-time ultrasound imaging that allows providers to see exactly where energy is delivered
• Personalized treatments tailored to your unique skin structure
• Up to 20% faster treatment times compared to previous Ultherapy systems
• Enhanced visualization with a larger, high-resolution screen for improved precision
• Comfortable, non-invasive treatment with zero downtime
• Natural collagen stimulation for gradual, long-lasting lifting results

Because the technology allows providers to visualize the skin layers during treatment, it ensures safer and more accurate energy delivery for optimal outcomes.

While Ultherapy works by delivering focused ultrasound energy deep beneath the skin to stimulate collagen, comfort during treatment is a top priority at Z Dermatology. Dr. Ann Zedlitz believes that aesthetic treatments should never require patients to “just tough it out.”

To ensure a comfortable experience, Dr. Z uses a multi-layered pain management approach, which may include:

• Topical numbing cream applied before treatment to reduce surface sensitivity
• Local numbing injections in targeted areas when appropriate
• Oral non-opioid medications to help minimize treatment discomfort
• Pro-Nox laughing gas, a patient-controlled nitrous oxide system that provides fast-acting relief and relaxation during the procedure



This combination allows most patients to remain comfortable and relaxed throughout the treatment.

Initial improvement: begins around 1–3 months after treatment as new collagen forms.

• Peak results: usually seen around 3–6 months.
• How long it lasts: most patients enjoy results for 12–18 months, sometimes longer depending on skin quality and aging.

Ultherapy PRIME works by stimulating your body’s own collagen production deep in the skin, which gradually lifts and tightens areas like the brow, jawline, neck, and décolleté. Because it’s rebuilding collagen rather than just tightening temporarily, the results develop slowly and last longer than many surface treatments.

Ultherapy PRIME® is ideal for patients who want a non-invasive alternative to a facelift or who are beginning to notice mild to moderate skin laxity. By stimulating your body’s own regenerative processes, results appear natural, subtle, and refreshed—never overdone.
