The cost of Ultherapy® Prime in Singapore starts from SGD 1,500, and treatment areas typically include the cheeks, undereye, brow, jawline, neck, and décolletage. Ultherapy® Prime offers more predictable results than HIFU or other non-invasive facelifting modalities.
Key Factors Affecting Ultherapy® Prime Cost in Singapore
Number of lines (or shots) delivered in the treated area
The protocol of an Ultherapy® Prime treatment requires specific lines. This strict international standardisation is intended to ensure effective treatment, visible results, and high patient satisfaction.
Customised treatment plan
Every skin is unique, and each skin condition varies. The ultrasound energy depth and intensity will be tailored to your skin needs and aesthetic goals.
- 4.5 mm (SMAS Layer): The Superficial Musculoaponeurotic System is the same deep tissue layer that is tightened during surgical facelifts. This depth level is targeted to tighten and lift skin.
- 3.0 mm (Dermis/Fat Layer): This layer is the deeper dermis and superficial fat where the energy reaches to sculpt the jawline and reduce fullness in areas like the double chin.
- 1.5 mm (Superficial Dermis): This layer is the upper skin layer where the energy applied targets superficial skin conditions such as uneven texture, fine lines, and skin crepiness.
Ultherapy® Prime vs HIFU Cost Comparison
Ultherapy® Prime and High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) aim to tighten and lift sagging skin, but they use different technologies and techniques.

Session preparation: Face wash and, application of topical numbing cream and ultrasound gel
Face will be thoroughly washed, and all traces of makeup will be scrubbed off.
Topical numbing cream will be applied to the treated area before an Ultherapy® Prime treatment to maximise comfort.
For patients with lower pain thresholds, oral painkillers can be administered.
Complementary services
Depending on the patient's aesthetic goals, you can combine Ultherapy® Prime with other treatments.
- Anti-wrinkle Injection (BoNTA) for wrinkle or fine line reduction
- Dermal fillers for facial revolumisation
- RF Microneedling with Erbium laser for pore reduction
Proven Ultherapy Prime results, as per clinical studies
- Brow lift: Showed an average of a 1.7 mm lift in the brow after a single treatment, with maximum lift measuring 1.9 mm [4]
- Neck & Skin lift: Tighter lifted skin is revealed over 2 to 3 months and can continue to improve up to 6 months
- Lines & Wrinkles on the Decolletage: Visible improvement at 90-day and 180-day post-treatment [5, 6]

Doctor’s experience with Ultherapy® Prime treatments
Look for clinics with doctors trained in the "See Plan Treat" protocol for safe, effective and precise ultrasound energy delivery.
- See: Visualise your skin anatomy and structure in real-time
- Plan: Tailor the ideal course of treatment
- Treat: Achieve your skin lifting goals
This 3-pronged approach helps the doctor visualise the patient's skin composition and structure in real time and plan treatment based on the patient's specific skin needs and goals.
Doctors should be able to think on their feet and make immediate, critical adjustments to the treatment depths used for specific treatments in the face and neck, as well as to the 4 adjustable energy settings, during their Ultherapy® Prime session to ensure patient safety and achieve optimal results.
Doctor’s ability to customise an effective patient treatment plan
The doctor should understand facial anatomy and map out an effective treatment plan targeting different skin depths, tailored to the patient's skin concerns and aesthetic goals.
The doctor should also be experienced in using real-time ultrasound visualisation.
They should know how to precisely position the transducer and control or adjust the appropriate pressure to deliver consistent energy to the targeted skin layer during the session [1, 2, 3].
Check for authentic Ultherapy® Prime device
The main key ways to confirm if your clinic's Ultherapy machine is authentic include:
- FDA-cleared authenticity "orange" sticker
- CE-marked certificate
- Real-time ultrasound visualisation (Counterfeit products usually show only static images or generic ultrasound footage on a loop)
FAQ
Can I just take collagen instead of going for Ultherapy® Prime?
Collagen is a natural protein that helps keep your skin firm, toned, and youthful. It is what gives young skin that bounce and resilience. But here is what many people do not realise.
There is currently no strong scientific evidence that consuming collagen supplements, whether in powders, drinks, or pills, can directly make your skin more supple or reverse existing sagging.
When you ingest collagen, your digestive system breaks it down into amino acids. Your body then decides where to send those building blocks. There is no guarantee they will end up in your face or neck.
Applying collagen topically (through creams or serums) faces a different problem. Collagen molecules are simply too large to penetrate the skin's surface. They sit on top. They may hydrate temporarily, but they do not rebuild lost collagen deep in the dermis.
Collagen regrowth must be stimulated from within the skin itself. That is where Ultherapy® Prime comes in.
Ultherapy® Prime uses focused ultrasound energy to reach the deep, foundational layers of your skin, the same layers targeted in a surgical facelift. This energy creates microscopic thermal injury points, which trigger your body's natural wound-healing
If your goal is to lift and tighten sagging skin without surgery, Ultherapy® Prime remains one of the few non-invasive treatments with published clinical evidence supporting its collagen-stimulating effects.
At what age does collagen depletion occur in older women?
Collagen loss begins gradually in our twenties. But for women, there is a significant acceleration after menopause.
Research shows that after menopause, women lose skin collagen at a much faster rate. On average:
- Collagen levels drop by 2.1% per year
- Skin thickness decreases by 1.13% per year
This rate continues for approximately 15 to 18 years following menopause [7].
A study compared premenopausal and postmenopausal women and found that postmenopausal women had significantly lower collagen levels than their premenopausal counterparts [8].
Oestrogen plays a protective role in collagen synthesis. When oestrogen levels decline during menopause, that protection diminishes. The result is thinner, less elastic skin that is more prone to sagging, fine lines, and wrinkles.
Understanding this timeline helps explain why many women in their 50s and 60s notice sudden changes in their skin laxity. It also explains why collagen-stimulating treatments like Ultherapy® Prime can be particularly beneficial during and after this life stage. when your body's natural collagen production needs the most support.
What are the benefits for men with Ultherapy® Prime?
Research indicates that men prefer subtle enhancements that help them look more rested and refreshed while preserving their masculine features [9]. They do not want to look "done." They want to look like themselves, just a younger, more energetic version.
How is male skin different?
- Men's skin is approximately 25% thicker than women's skin
- Men have higher collagen density throughout life
- Men have less subcutaneous fat, which means sagging can appear more pronounced because there is less "filler" beneath the skin
- Men typically have stronger jawlines and brow bones, which can make subtle lifting effects more visible
Because men's thicker, collagen-rich skin responds well to ultrasound energy. The firmer foundation means the lifting effect from Ultherapy® Prime can be quite noticeable—especially along the jawline, chin, and brow.
As men have less facial fat, any sagging tissues will look more obvious. Lifting those tissues back into place can significantly improve overall appearance without altering the fundamental character of the face.
If you are a man in your 40s, 50s, or 60s noticing that your jawline is less sharp, your brows are heavier, or your neck is starting to loosen, Ultherapy® Prime is worth considering. It offers gradual, natural-looking improvements without drastic changes, downtime, or the "operated" look.
Are there any financing options for Ultherapy® Prime procedure?
Many clinics in Singapore, including Amaris B. Clinic, offers financing options or payment plans to help patients manage the cost of treatment over time.
What is typically available:
- Interest-free credit card instalment plans – Spread the cost over 3, 6, or 12 months with participating banks (subject to approval)
- Outright payment – Some patients prefer to pay in full at the time of treatment
How long do results last for Ultherapy® Prime?
Ultherapy® Prime results are not instant. And that is actually a good thing.
Clinical studies and real-world data show that Ultherapy Prime results typically last between 12 and 18 months.
However, individual results vary based on:
- Your age
- Your baseline collagen levels
- Your skin quality and elasticity
- Lifestyle factors (sun exposure, smoking, diet)
- Whether you have reached or passed menopause (for women)
Here is the timeline:
| Immediately after treatment | You may see some initial tissue contraction, but this is not the final result. |
| 2 to 3 months post-treatment | New collagen begins to form. You will start noticing subtle lifting and tightening. |
| 3 to 6 months post-treatment | Results continue to improve as collagen remodelling progresses. |
| 6 months onward | The full effect becomes visible. |
What happens after 18 months?
Your body continues its natural ageing process. The collagen stimulated by Ultherapy® Prime will gradually break down over time, just like your original collagen did. Many patients choose to schedule touch-up treatments annually or every 18 months to maintain their results.
In a nutshell, Ultherapy® Prime does not stop ageing. Nothing does. But it significantly slows the visible signs of ageing in the treated areas, and maintenance treatments can help you stay ahead of the curve.
