Dr. John Young Now Offering Non-surgical Cosmetic Procedure - Ultherapy - At Four Silver Falls Dermatology Locations Across Western Oregon

October 22, 2012 (Press-News.org) Salem, OR - October 22, 2012 - John Young, MD, announced today that the first-of-its-kind cosmetic treatment, Ultherapy, is now available at Silver Falls Dermatology, with practice locations in Salem, Woodburn, Corvallis and Albany.

Ultherapy is a new type of non-surgical procedure that stimulates the body's own natural healing process to lift the skin over time. The use of FDA-cleared ultrasound technology enables physicians, for the first time, to see and then treat the deepest support layers of the skin - typically addressed in cosmetic surgery - without cutting or disrupting the surface of the skin. This is also the first and only FDA-approved treatment to actually lift skin.

"Ultherapy represents a whole new category within aesthetic medicine," says Dr. Young. "It is an ideal cosmetic procedure for those looking for natural yet noticeable lift results. We are proud to be the first and only practice in the area with this technology."

The treatment typically takes between 30- and 60-minutes. Afterward, patients are able to return to normal activities right away, and there are no special measures they need to take. With just one Ultherapy treatment, the lifting process is initiated, but the effect will build gradually over the course of two to three months, as new, stronger collagen is created. Further improvements can even appear up to six months following a procedure as this collagen-building process continues.

While the results do not duplicate those of surgery, Ultherapy's gradual improvements make it a compelling option for people who have mild to moderate skin laxity as well as those who want to "stay ahead of the game" and those looking to prolong the effects of cosmetic surgery.

Tens of thousands of Ultherapy treatments have been provided worldwide, and Dr. Young is pleased to be at the forefront in the U.S. of this clinical advance.

Dr. Young will be holding an Ultherapy introductory event on Wednesday, October 24, 2012 from 6:00 to 8:00 pm. Event attendees will receive special pricing on Ultherapy and learn more about the procedure. For more information or to RSVP, call 877-757-DERM (3376).
