Edmonton, AB -- (SBWIRE) -- 02/06/2015 -- Ulthera is a device which provides a gentle lift to skin whilst also tightening it. It targets focused ultrasound into the deepest areas of the skin which tend to 'loosen' as a person ages. The ultrasound has a tightening effect in that deepest layer which provides the lifted appearance on the surface. Throughout January 2015, Edmonton Cosmetic Dermatologist Dr Barry Lycka has featured several skin tightening devices in his educational videos, and this week (04feb15) he explains how the Ulthera device works.

In his latest video Dr Lycka begins by explaining what the Ulthera device is and how it works. Whilst emphasizing that this device is not a replacement for facelift surgery, Dr Lycka highlights the typical patients for whom this device gives the best results, particularly when combined with an appropriate skin care program.
