The Restoration

When tension alone is not enough — when the cells themselves need re-instruction.

Regenerative tuning that combines biostimulants with custom energy-device sequencing. For faces where time has crossed the line from fatigue into change.

There is a point where one layer is no longer enough

There is a year in every face when the change stops being fatigue and becomes something quieter and more permanent. The jawline doesn’t just look soft — it is soft. The cheek doesn’t just sit a little lower — the tissue underneath has thinned. The neck has new lines that didn’t resolve after a good week of sleep.

At that point, one device or one biostimulant is no longer the right answer. The face needs work at multiple layers in the same visit: tension restored in the SMAS, density rebuilt in the dermis, surface tightened where laxity has reached the skin itself.

The Restoration is what we build when a face needs all three at once.

Restoration is rarely one device. It is the right sequence of three.
The Science

Why it works

1. Ultherapy — deep SMAS lift

Focused ultrasound at 4.5mm restores tension in the deepest layer. Physician-vectored to your specific laxity rather than spread evenly.

2. Thermage — surface skin tightening

Monopolar RF heats the dermis to drive collagen contraction and remodelling at a layer Ultherapy cannot reach. Layered, not duplicated.

3. IV conscious sedation

Included for comfort. A two-device session takes time; sedation makes it feel like a single, manageable visit instead of a long one.

For patients whose case also calls for regenerative cellular work (autologous PRP / PBM), the physician may sequence in elements of our Metacell Protocol as part of the assessment.

Who it’s for

  • Patients in their mid-40s and older with combined laxity, surface tightening needs, and visible textural change.
  • Anyone who has tried a single-device lift before and felt the result fell short of expectation.
  • Patients who want surgical-adjacent results without the recovery of a facelift.
  • Travelers who can allow one full clinic day and prefer fewer, deeper sessions over many shallow visits.

Who it’s not for

  • Early-stage laxity only: if Ultherapy alone is sufficient, start with The Tuning. We will not over-treat.
  • Surface-only concerns: dullness, texture, or fine lines without structural change are better served by The Foundation.
  • Cannot clear IV sedation requirements: certain cardiac, respiratory, or medication histories disqualify same-day sedation. Discuss with the physician before booking.
  • Wanting surgical results: The Restoration is non-surgical. For deep-plane structural correction, surgical referral is the honest answer.

What patients say

★★★★★ Verified on Google Apr 2026
Three rounds of Ulthera 600 shots and Juvelook Volume 3cc each. I'm genuinely thrilled — my face contour looks slimmer and my nasolabial lines have softened noticeably. I'll be back when the effect fades. Everyone is friendly and the doctors are skilled.

Physician’s Q&A

Six questions, honestly answered

Why combine Ultherapy and Thermage in one session?

They work at different depths. Ultherapy treats the SMAS at 4.5mm and the dermis at 3.0mm with focused ultrasound; Thermage warms the dermal-epidermal zone with monopolar RF. When laxity has reached both the deep tension layer and the surface skin, treating only one leaves the result visibly incomplete.

Is the IV sedation really necessary?

For a one-device session, no. For a two-device session lasting around two hours, sedation transforms it from an endurance test into a single comfortable rest. We include it because finishing a full Thermage cycle after a full Ultherapy cycle is significantly more bearable for almost every patient with sedation than without.

Can I start with Ultherapy only and add Thermage later?

Absolutely. If you’re unsure, starting with The Tuning (Ultherapy only) is a defensible entry point — many patients are sufficiently served at that level. You can always upgrade to the full Restoration on a follow-up visit.

How long do the results last?

Most patients carry the result for 18 – 24 months at peak, with a gradual return of laxity after that. Single-device maintenance (Ultherapy or Thermage) on alternating annual visits sustains it without repeating the full session.

What if a facelift would actually serve me better?

If the physician’s assessment indicates that surgery would deliver a fundamentally different and superior result, we will tell you. The Restoration is the most we can do non-surgically — not the most that can be done. Surgical referrals are made honestly.

What pre-session preparation is needed?

An honest medical history form, a fasting window of about 6 hours before IV sedation, and a clean face on the day. We’ll send you a written checklist after booking. If you take blood thinners, anti-coagulants, or have certain cardiac/respiratory histories, message us first — some require physician clearance or a different protocol design.
