Ultrasound treatment

Ultrasound treatment allows for in-depth treatment of the skin without any convalescence. Clinique Laflamme has various ultrasound-based technologies:

  • Accent Prime

Alma Laser’s Accent Prime technology allows unfocused ultrasound to be deployed for in-depth skin treatment. The small and large handpieces allow to work on many areas, such as the face, neck and body.

Ultrasounds are extremely effective in penetrating the deep layers of the skin. They can reach the deep dermis and even subcutaneous fat cells if necessary. Through precise calibration, we determine the intensity parameters that will give the best results in the treatment of the targeted area.

Facial treatment

The Accent essentially allows us to obtain a tightening of the skin. This allows us to redefine the mandibular angles (facial contour) and to obtain a very interesting lifting effect for middle-aged patients. By regenerating the skin of the face and neck, the Accent also helps to reduce wrinkles and scars. For those who wish to reduce the amount of fat on the face and/or neck, the Accent is also a tool to reduce the amount of fat.

Treatment at the body level

Accent Prime can be used to reduce skin laxity and decrease the circumference of areas such as the arms, stomach, thighs or calves. Ultrasounds can also help reduce the appearance of stretch marks. It is important to remember that on the body, it is essential to tighten the skin when we melt the fat. Reducing the number and volume of fat cells is not interesting if the skin is not tightened.

  • Ulthera Treatment

Ulthera is a technology based on focused ultrasounds that allows for a lift of the face, neck and eyebrows. This treatment allows, without any convalescence and with very few side effects, to firm up the face and redefine its contours.

An Ulthéra treatment requires a thorough analysis to determine which tissues need to be heated. The device works on the different layers of the skin: the superficial dermis, the deep dermis, the adipocytes under the dermis, and/or the SMAS (the deep structure that supports the face and neck). It is Dr. Laflamme’s experience and expertise that allows her to individualize each of her treatment plans. Depending on your morphology and your needs, different suggestions will be offered to you for a personalized accompaniment calibrated to your skin and your expectations.

Treatments with Ulthéra cause no discomfort thanks to Dr. Laflamme’s moving technique. No need for analgesia or anesthetic cream. Only one treatment is required, although it is not contraindicated to do more than one. The potential side effects are limited to appearance of redness or slight and temporary swelling.

  • IMPACT Ultrasound

Alma Laser’s IMPACT device delivers ultrasound with a small tip. The IMPACT is mainly used when we have created micro-perforations on the skin and allows us to maximize the results of our ablative technologies.

At Clinique Laflamme, we mainly use the IMPACT to penetrate the skin with substrates such as your Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) or a mixture of PRP and hyaluronic acid.

These elements can be used to treat a variety of conditions, such as fine lines and wrinkles in areas such as the tear ducts and around the mouth. The extremely precise tip of the IMPACT allows the unfocused ultrasound technology to be deployed in certain small areas.
