Facelift effects without surgery!

Would you like to lift your face without surgery? Are you looking for firmer skin without increasing the volume of your face?

Our wide range of laser techniques can significantly improve the structure and firmness of your skin on the face, neck and upper arms. Wrinkles and sagging contours are effectively reduced by the professional use of laser light.

At SK-AESTHETICS in Rapperswil-Jona, we offer various laser treatments for a non-surgical lift and will be happy to explain the different options to you.

Ultherapy® treatment

How does ultrasound skin smoothing work?

Ultherapy is a non-invasive treatment that lifts the skin on the face and neck, offering results that closely resemble a facelift without the need for a scalpel. After an Ultherapy® treatment, sagging skin typically begins to tighten within a few days, leaving your skin looking smoother and fresher. The full lifting effects become visible after 3–6 months.

With this ultrasound-based laser therapy, we can target deeper layers of the skin – such as muscle and fat – from the outside. Normally. these areas would only be treatable with surgery. The special feature of the Ultherapy® device used in our practice is that the practitioner can see exactly which layer of skin is being treated during the procedure – ensuring that the treatment is extremely targeted and precise.

The skin surface remains completely intact, allowing patients to resume work, exercise, and social activities immediately after the procedure. Treatment with Ultherapy® strengthens and firms the skin while stimulating collagen production – resulting in a long-lasting facial lifting effect.

Treatment with Ultherapy® is costly, as the device is one of the most state-of-the-art and technically sophisticated available.

It’s important to note that the treatment is not painless, but it is generally well tolerated with the use of a light anaesthetic cream.

Patience is also required – the results are not immediately visible after the treatment, but the gradual skin-tightening effect makes the wait well worth it.

This is the most effective method for a non-invasive facelift, offering impressive results for a fresher, healthier, and younger complexion without the “puffy face” effect.

You will have absolutely no downtime and can return to work immediately after the treatment. Additionally, there are no risks of infections, haematomas, granulomas, asymmetries, or other potential side effects associated with other aesthetic facial procedures.

FAQs – Frequently asked questions

That’s not an easy question to answer. The crucial consideration is whether you want to address fine lines around the mouth or eyes, or improve marionette lines. For fine lines, an ablative fractional laser is my first choice, provided you are able to take short time away from your usual activities to recover.

For marionette lines, we need to examine the underlying causes in detail. In most cases, Ultherapy is an excellent approach that achieves a noticeable improvement.

The duration of the procedure varies depending on the method. A CO2 laser treatment for the face itself doesn’t take long, but you’ll need to account for preparation and aftercare, so you should plan for about an hour in the clinic.

Ultherapy, on the other hand, is relatively time-consuming. You should set aside at least 90 minutes, although the treatment time also depends on the specific area of the body or face being treated.

Sagging skin on the neck can be treated similarly to facial skin. Positive effects can be achieved with Ultherapy®, the CO2 Fraxel laser, or a non-ablative laser.

Combining the available procedures and techniques yields the best results. For instance, Ultherapy® can first be used to tighten the skin deep down, and we can follow this up by injecting biostimulants such as calcium hydroxyapatite to make results immediately visible. If you then want to treat fine wrinkles, pore structure, or pigmentation, other laser devices can be used.
