At the Dr Joney De Souza Clinic in Marylebone, Ultherapy is performed with precision and medical insight, ensuring subtle.
Ultherapy is one of the most advanced non surgical treatments for lifting and tightening the skin. Using focused ultrasound energy, it targets the deeper supportive layers of the face and neck to stimulate fresh collagen and restore a more defined, lifted appearance. At the Dr Joney De Souza Clinic in Marylebone, Ultherapy is performed with precision and medical insight, ensuring subtle, natural improvement that supports the contours of your face without altering your character.
Ultherapy is an ultrasound based treatment that stimulates the production of new collagen within the deep foundational layers of the skin. This is the same layer that surgeons target during a surgical facelift, known as the SMAS. Ultherapy delivers precise heat at controlled depths without harming the surface, which allows the skin to strengthen and contract over time.
The result is a gradual lifting effect. The jawline becomes more defined, the cheeks and lower face appear firmer, and the brow can achieve a subtle yet noticeable lift.
Unlike many superficial treatments, Ultherapy reaches the deeper tissues responsible for structural support. This ability to focus energy exactly where collagen is most needed is what makes Ultherapy so effective.
Ultherapy uses Micro Focused Ultrasound with Visualisation (MFU-V), a technology that allows the energy to be placed with exceptional accuracy. With real time ultrasound imaging, Dr Joney De Souza and our expert team of Dr Mattia and Roma can see the layers beneath the skin and deliver energy only to the precise depth required.
This highly targeted approach offers several key benefits:
Precision
Energy can be placed directly into the SMAS layer or mid dermis depending on your needs.
Consistency
Controlled heating triggers a predictable collagen building response.
No downtime
Because the surface of the skin remains intact, most patients return to normal activity immediately.
Gradual, natural results
Your own collagen develops progressively, so the effect looks entirely authentic.
At Dr Joney De Souza Skin and Laser, we have observed a clear shift towards preventative aesthetics, particularly among younger patients who are seeking to protect skin quality before visible ageing becomes established.
As highlighted in Country and Town House, this growing focus on prejuvenation reflects a more proactive mindset. “Prejuvenation is all about prevention,” explains Dr Joney. “Younger clients, particularly those in their twenties, are opting for techniques that avoid injectables while still addressing early signs of ageing. Light laser therapies, gentle chemical peels and resurfacing treatments help maintain skin health and prevent wrinkles and sagging before they appear.”
This evolution in patient behaviour is echoed in Harper’s Bazaar, where Dr De Souza notes an increasing demand for customised, non injectable treatments that lift and tighten the skin while supporting long term collagen health. “We are seeing a greater interest in advanced laser therapies, radiofrequency microneedling and ultrasound based treatments such as Ultherapy PRIME,” he explains. “These less invasive options offer minimal downtime, reduced risk and clinically proven results, making them ideal for patients who want to invest in their skin early.”
Our patients return to us year after year for natural, balanced results. Every review reflects our commitment to precision, safety and a personalised approach to aesthetic care.
Every patient begins with an assessment led by Dr Joney De Souza. This includes an evaluation of facial structure, skin quality, collagen density and the degree of laxity. Joney will determine the correct Ultherapy protocol and a personalised treatment pattern tailored to your goals.
The consultation ensures that Ultherapy is the right approach for you. In some cases, he may advise combining Ultherapy with other treatments such as Morpheus8 or injectable collagen stimulators if your concerns require a multi layered approach.
A topical anaesthetic is applied to improve comfort. The ultrasound handpiece is then placed on the skin, and real time imaging allows Joney to visualise the exact layer being treated. Energy is delivered through a series of pulses at varying depths depending on the area.
The experience is a sensation of warmth and brief tightening within the tissues. Some areas may feel more sensitive than others, particularly around the jawline or forehead, but the treatment is well tolerated.
A typical Ultherapy session lasts between 30 and 90 minutes, depending on the number of areas being treated.
There is no significant recovery time. Mild redness, tingling or slight tenderness may be present for several hours, but most patients resume normal activities immediately.

A gentle lift to the brows can open the eye area, reduce heaviness and refresh the expression. Ultherapy delivers controlled heat to support the brow’s underlying structures, offering a subtle and elegant elevation without altering the shape of the face.
Patients often ask if Ultherapy is painful. Sensation levels vary, but most describe the treatment as tolerable with areas of warmth or brief intensity. Dr Joney and our team will adjust the energy levels carefully and uses topical anaesthetic to ensure comfort.
Ultherapy is a non surgical ultrasound treatment that lifts and tightens the skin by stimulating collagen production in the deep supportive layers.
Ultrasound energy is delivered to controlled depths beneath the skin using real time imaging. This triggers collagen remodelling and causes the tissues to contract and strengthen over time.
Ultherapy is FDA cleared and has an exceptional safety profile when performed by an experienced medical practitioner like Dr Joney, Dr Mattia or Roma.
Most patients require a single session. Some may benefit from a second treatment after 12 months depending on their collagen response.
Treatment time ranges from 30 to 90 minutes depending on the number of areas.
There is no downtime. Mild redness or tenderness may occur but settles quickly.
Early improvement may appear within 4 to 6 weeks, with full results developing over 3 to 6 months.
Results typically last 12 to 18 months, sometimes longer with good collagen quality.
Avoid exercise for at least twenty four hours to prevent irritation.
Yes. It can complement Morpheus8, fillers, skin boosters and collagen stimulators depending on your goals
