The Ulthera System is intended to apply focused ultrasound energy to the body to achieve temporary changes in the physical appearance of the skin. The Ulthera System is indicated for use as a non-invasive dermatological aesthetic treatment to: - Lift the eyebrow - Lift lax submental (beneath the chin) and neck tissue, which can also affect the appearance of lax tissue in the submental and neck regions - Improve lines and wrinkles of the décolleté - Improve the appearance of skin laxity on the abdomen, anterior arms, and posterior arms The Ulthera® System, in conjunction with the Ulthera® DeepSEE® transducer, allows for ultrasonic visualization of depths up to 8 mm below the surface of the skin. The indicated use of the imaging is to visualize the dermal and subdermal layers of tissue to: - Ensure proper coupling of the transducer to the skin - Confirm appropriate depth of treatment such as to avoid bone

The Ulthera® System consists of the Ulthera® Control Unit (with system software), a handpiece with cable, and interchangeable transducers. The device produces controlled tissue coagulation below the skin surface (epidermis) within the first few millimeters of tissue (dermis) using highly focused, low-energy ultrasound deposition. The Ulthera® System directs micro-focused acoustic waves to the treatment area at desired depths without affecting or requiring a secondary action to protect the skin surface. The operator may also use the device's supplemental imaging capability to visualize the treatment area and aid in assuring full/proper skin contact of the Ulthera® System transducer to the skin in the target area.
