It's a perfect facelift-like treatment for patients who aren't ready for facelift surgery. In clinical studies, a single Profound treatment achieved 37% of the reduction in jowling and skin laxity of a facelift, without surgery, scars, or general anesthesia.
Patients can expect to begin seeing visible improvement six to eight weeks after their Profound treatment. These improvements continue to build for up to six months. Profound has been clinically proven to correct the signs of aging.
Profound microneedling has more downtime, but it's more effective than Ultherapy. This is because you don't need a series of Profounds like you to do with Ultherapy. You can quickly get the beautiful results you desire with one single treatment.
How many Profound treatments will I need? You will only need 1 treatment to rejuvenate your skin with Profound. There is no need to schedule multiple office visits in order to achieve optimum results.
Most patients will see the benefits of Profound last from six to nine months. At this time, a repeat treatment can be used to further maintain the smooth, taut, youthful-looking skin.
Are Profound Results Permanent? The Profound treatment promotes the natural production of new elastin and collagen, with most patients seeing improvement 6 to 8 weeks after their treatments. Although the aging process will continue, results can last for years with periodic maintenance treatments.
Does the Profound Treatment Hurt? The Profound Procedure is surprisingly tolerable. The first 15 minutes of the treatment are spent injecting the skin to be treated with lidocaine—numbing medicine. Once the facial and neck skin are numb, the treatment is more easily tolerated.

Firstly, the Profound RF is four times more powerful than the Morpheus8. It delivers energy deeper into the tissues and for a longer amount of time, allowing us to achieve optimum protein denaturation within one single treatment.
A Thermage treatment only penetrates into shallower areas of skin tissues, from the dermis, just below the surface of the skin, to the layer of subcutaneous fat tissues. However, it covers a wider area of the body and delivers a greater volume of energy in one session when compared to Ultherapy.
Thermage can be used to address the same facial areas as Ultherapy. However, it can also be used off-label to address many areas of the body including the hands, arms, abdomen, buttocks, and thighs. Thermage is also a viable treatment option for light to moderate cellulite.
Profound can tighten the skin on the decollete area by stimulating the natural reproduction of collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid. With tighter skin on and around the neck and upper chest, patients report that they look years younger.
The results typically last 2-5 years. I personally find the main disadvantages of this device to be an advantage. Patients should expect 1 week of social downtime, with swelling and bruising. Our pretreatment protocol will keep these side effects to a minimum, but 100% of patients should expect swelling and bruising.
A mini facelift involves the placement of incisions in front of the ears which extend from the hairline to the bottom of the earlobe. The surgeon will then gently pull the skin and tissues up and outward the ear. Excess skin and tissue are removed to tighten the appearance of the skin.
Using a unique radiofrequency (RF) system together with micro-needling, Profound provides patients with dramatic skin tightening results, without the use of fillers and surgery.
Botox reduces sagging jowls by tightening and lifting the jaw area. This pulls back the excess sagging skin that creates jowls in the first place.
This treatment can be used to target specific areas including the delicate under eye and is also a safe treatment to target forehead lines. Profound can be used in the face, neck, chest and hands.
Profound is a quick, single treatment performed in approximately 45 minutes.
Microneedling with radiofrequency waves can also improve the look of your skin. In a 2013 study, for example, the procedure reduced wrinkles around the eyes. The effects lasted longer than Botox injections. A 2020 case report also shares that the treatment can reduce loose facial skin.
Profound RF is an FDA approved, single-treatment non-invasive procedure. With Profound, radiofrequency is delivered to the targeted layer—reticular dermis with real-time feedback.
The cost of Profound starts at $4,000 for one treatment. Price varies depending on the size of the area being treated. Profound produces a 100% response rate to facial wrinkles with a single treatment. This can be compared to multiple sessions of aesthetic injectables or surgical options to achieve the same result.
The skin tightening results of neuromodulators typically last around 18 months. As with dermal fillers, this depends on several factors, including how regularly you receive such injections, the number of units injected into the treatment site, your desired aesthetic and other factors.
Profound is a revolutionary new energy-based facial treatment designed to create new elastin, collagen and hyaluronic acid – the building blocks that keep your skin smooth and elastic. All without surgery, fillers or toxins, Profound dramatically improves aging skin, so you can look years younger.
