Ultrasound Skin Lift (Ulthera SPT)
Micro-focused ultrasound that lifts at the SMAS layer.
The Ultrasound Skin Lift (Ulthera SPT) at Waleerat Clinic utilizes micro-focused ultrasound to stimulate collagen production by creating targeted thermal coagulation points deep within the skin, specifically at the SMAS layer. This treatment is designed for individuals seeking non-surgical face contouring and skin tightening.
Results typically become noticeable within 4-6 weeks and continue to improve over 3-6 months. The procedure lasts 45-60 minutes and costs from ฿18,000 at our Bangkok clinic.
This treatment is FDA-approved for cosmetic use in Thailand.
Micro-focused ultrasound delivers precisely targeted thermal coagulation points at three depths — including the SMAS layer that surgeons address in a facelift. Bypasses the skin surface entirely.
Where it comes from, what's inside, who certifies it.
Energy-based treatment — no injected or topical substance enters the body. Halal-compatible by default (no ingredient question).
