Laser and energy-based treatments
Facial ultrasound
Facial ultrasound is an imaging tool, rather than a cosmetic treatment itself. It allows your cosmetic doctor to see structures beneath the skin in real time, including different tissue layers, blood vessels and previously placed material.
At Atelier Medical Aesthetics in Canberra, facial ultrasound may be used to support treatment planning, improve procedural precision or assess previous cosmetic treatments and complications. Where appropriate, ultrasound-guided treatment can help your doctor better understand the anatomy beneath the skin before and during a procedure.
