What is Liftera and how does it work?
Liftera is a micro-focused ultrasound device that acts on precise points in the deeper layers of the skin, including the SMAS (Superficial Musculoaponeurotic System), the same structure treated in surgical facelifts.
It delivers microzones of heat, causing immediate tissue retraction and stimulating collagen and elastin production over time. 3 to 6 months.
Unlike lasers and radiofrequency treatments, Liftera works deeply without damaging the skin's surface, guaranteeing a lifting effect without surgery and without recovery time.
Who is Liftera suitable for?
Men and women, generally from the age of 30-35, who present with:
-
Flaccidity Light to moderate application on the face, jowls, and neck;
-
Droopy eyelids and wrinkled texture on the eyelids (cracked appearance);
-
Loss of facial contour (less defined jaw);
-
Excessive double chin (double chin) and localized fat in the face;
-
Grooves and lines with pronounced facial expressions (like "Chinese mustache");
-
Sagging skin in body areas such as knees, arms and abdomen;
-
Interest in prevention and maintenance of facial tone.
Ideal profile:
-
For those seeking natural, progressive results with no downtime;
-
For those who are not candidates for (or do not want) plastic surgery;
-
For those who want to enhance the effects of biostimulators like Sculptra and Radiesse.
What results does Liftera provide?
-
Natural lifting, visible between 3 and 6 months after the session;
-
Redefining facial contours and enhancing the "V" of youth;
-
Gently lifting the eyebrows and corners of the mouth;
-
Firmness in treated body areas;
-
Deep collagen stimulation, with a cumulative effect in combined protocols.
The result doesn't transform the features, but it improves facial and body architecture in a sophisticated way.
How many sessions are recommended?
We indicate 1 to 3 applicationsIt depends a lot on the assessment.
The most common approach is a single session, with annual maintenance or combined with other treatments, such as biostimulators or monopolar radiofrequency (Coolfase), to enhance results.
