The stretching of collagen fibers and even a slight displacement of the musculo-aponeurotic system, which occurs under the action of natural gravity, provokes the appearance of deep nasolabial folds, hernia in the eyelid and ptosis of the eyebrows. Ultrasonic lifting is a procedure during which intense and focused heating of a small area of the muscle-aponeurotic layer occurs. As a result, it shrinks, providing an almost instantaneous facelift.
