SMAS-lifting with the Ultraformer 3 device is a revolutionary approach to facial rejuvenation that combines cutting-edge technology with natural-looking results. The procedure is non-surgical, making it safe and minimally invasive.
SMAS (Superficial Musculo-Aponeurotic System) is a fibrous muscular layer that acts as the structural framework of the face, supporting the skin and muscles. With age, this support weakens, leading to skin sagging, wrinkles, and a loss of facial contour definition. The SMAS is composed of collagen and elastin fibers that help maintain a firm and youthful facial shape. SMAS-lifting is a procedure aimed at restoring this framework, tightening, and rejuvenating the face.
Ultraformer 3 is a cutting-edge device that uses high-frequency ultrasound waves to perform SMAS-lifting. These waves penetrate deep into the skin and muscle layers, stimulating contraction and strengthening of the SMAS. This advanced approach ensures visible results without surgery, offering a safe, non-invasive alternative with natural outcomes.
SMAS-lifting is ideal for individuals who want to combat age-related changes while maintaining a natural appearance. It is perfect for tightening the skin of the face, neck, and décolleté, reducing the appearance of wrinkles, restoring facial contours, and improving overall skin tone.
SMAS-lifting targets the deep layers of the skin and muscles without damaging the superficial layers.
Ultraformer 3 shows visible results after the first session and requires no extended recovery.
Non-surgical ultrasound lifting is minimally traumatic and carries no surgical risks.
The effect lasts 2 to 3 years, depending on age and skin condition.
Depending on the number of treated areas, sessions last from 40 minutes to several hours.
Suitable for all skin types and can be combined with other anti-aging treatments.
Modern technology ensures a safe and comfortable experience.
Lifting is performed without damaging the outer skin layers.
No visible marks or recovery downtime—no bruises or stitches, only minor swelling that typically goes unnoticed.
Versatile—it can be done at any time of the year.
SMAS-lifting is recommended for individuals over the age of 35, when the first signs of aging begin to appear. However, it can also be used preventively or to correct early aging signs starting from age 28, depending on the doctor's recommendation.
The key difference between SMAS-lifting and a surgical facelift is the absence of incisions, stitches, and prolonged recovery. The procedure offers natural-looking results without altering facial features, making it an ideal solution for those seeking rejuvenation without surgery.
The effects are visible immediately after the procedure: the skin appears firmer, facial contours become more defined, and wrinkles are reduced. The full result develops within 2–3 months and can last up to 18 months.
Many celebrities, including Hollywood stars, models, and public figures, choose SMAS-lifting. Notable personalities such as Jennifer Aniston, Kim Kardashian, Courteney Cox, Julia Roberts, Angelina Jolie, and Cate Blanchett have confirmed using SMAS-lifting to maintain youthful skin. These stars prefer non-surgical lifting methods to stay fresh and youthful without the risks associated with surgery.
SMAS-lifting with the Ultraformer 3 device is a completely safe procedure, approved by dermatologists and cosmetologists worldwide. Thanks to its non-invasive nature, the risk of complications is minimal, and recovery takes just a few days. iO Clinic doctors develop an individualized treatment protocol to ensure maximum comfort and achieve natural, effective results tailored to your beauty needs.
