The weakening of collagen in the superficial layer of the skin causes fine lines and wrinkles to appear. However, weak collagen in deeper tissue causes skin sagging and stretching. Increasing the collagen in this layer can result in skin tightening and lifting. This in return also addresses the wrinkles and lines on the skin. UItherapy in Abu Dhabi is one of the treatments carried out in a clinical setting to increase collagen production in the innermost layer of the skin. It sends ultrasound energy into the collagen in deeper connective tissue preventing signs of aging and helping to keep elasticity in the skin. When it comes to aging it is easier to prevent than correct. Thus getting this treatment at a young age like the 20s will result in the prevention of aging signs. It should be known that no matter how beneficial the treatment is, it does not replace a facelift and does not give the same results. Â
