The device, which uses ultrasound to stimulate collagen and elastin production, now includes treatment areas beyond the face and neck.
Merz Aesthetics announced the upcoming availability of Ultherapy PRIME to improve the appearance of skin laxity on the anterior arms and posterior arms, and abdomen.
Ultherapy PRIME integrates real-time visualization to treat the upper face, lower face, neck, décolleté, and now the body. The new indications will launch in the United States before expanding to markets worldwide, with commercial rollout in EMEA planned for early 2026.
“This indication expansion is proof of our incredible momentum, following last year’s successful Ultherapy PRIME launch,” says Bob Rhatigan, CEO, Merz Aesthetics, in a release. “By extending our reach from face to body, we’re unlocking new treatment possibilities, meeting rising patient demand, and reinforcing our leadership in non-invasive skin lifting and tightening.”
Ultherapy PRIME builds on Ultherapy, which was recognized by a panel of experts as the gold standard in non-invasive skin lifting and tightening with over 3.5 million treatments performed globally and a 95% patient satisfaction rate.
Ultherapy PRIME stimulates the body’s natural collagen and elastin production where it’s needed. Ultherapy PRIME lifts and tightens the upper face, lower face, neck, and décolleté. Now, Ultherapy PRIME also firms and tones the skin on the arms and abdomen. Results can last up to a year or more on the face and six months or more on the arms and abdomen, according to a release from the company.
“The Ultherapy PRIME platform offers all the signature benefits of Ultherapy for non-invasive skin lifting and tightening, plus the ability to improve skin laxity on the abdomen and arms in a single session,” says Dr Sabrina Fabi, a double board-certified dermatologist and dermatological cosmetic surgeon from San Diego, California, in a release. “This is of great value for my patients who want to keep the skin on their body looking as youthful as the skin on their face.”
