Ultherapy PRIME® – A Visible Facelift Without Surgery

Over the years, the skin loses its firmness and elasticity. The contours of the face become softer, and the skin on the neck and décolletage sags. Many patients want a noticeable tightening effect but do not want to undergo surgery.

This is exactly where Ultherapy PRIME® comes in. This non-invasive treatment uses microfocused ultrasound technology to tighten and lift the skin without surgery. The goal is to achieve natural-looking results that suit you.

Ultherapy PRIME® is the latest generation of Ultherapy®. The procedure has been recognized by a panel of expert physicians as the gold standard for non-invasive lifting and skin tightening. I am now offering this treatment at my practice in 1090 Vienna.

How does treatment with microfocused ultrasound work?

Ultherapy PRIME® directs focused ultrasound energy specifically into the layers of tissue that are rich in collagen and elastin. The energy acts at precise depths of 1.5 mm, 3 mm, and 4.5 mm. The skin’s surface remains unharmed.

Deep within the skin, tiny heat points form with temperatures ranging from 60 to 70 °C. These trigger the skin’s natural regeneration process, which occurs in three phases:

  1. Activation: The body responds to the heat points by initiating a natural healing process.
  2. Regeneration: The connective tissue cells (fibroblasts) produce new collagen and elastin.
  3. Maturation: The new collagen is remodeled and forms tight cross-links. This promotes a long-lasting lifting and firming effect.

So the skin isn’t plumped up from the outside, but rather rebuilds itself from the inside out. That’s why the result looks natural.

Customized thanks to real-time imaging

Every person is anatomically unique. The depth, thickness, and distribution of tissue layers vary significantly from person to person.

Ultherapy PRIME® is the only non-invasive procedure with built-in real-time imaging. During the treatment, I can see on the screen how your skin layers are structured. This allows me to deliver the energy exactly where it will be most effective for you.

Each treatment is therefore tailored to your individual skin type and your needs.

How does the treatment work?

We start with a personal consultation. I’ll examine your skin, discuss your goals with you, and create a personalized treatment plan.

During the treatment, I move the handpiece over your skin and monitor the tissue layers on the screen. You may feel small energy pulses being delivered deep into the skin.

Tummy tuck | thread lift - an innovation!

In the world of aesthetic dermatology, an innovative technique has become increasingly established in recent years: the tummy tuck using sutures. This minimally invasive method promises to tighten and rejuvenate the abdominal area without the need for extensive surgery. Tummy tuck with threads has developed as a promising alternative to conventional tummy tuck procedures and opens up new possibilities for patients to achieve their aesthetic goals without having to put up with long downtimes and scarring.

This page explains the tummy tuck with stitches in more detail. You will learn, among other things, how this procedure works, what advantages it offers, who is suitable for this treatment and what results you can expect. If you are interested in a tummy tuck or are simply curious about what modern aesthetic surgery has to offer, you should read this article carefully. Feel free to contact me for more information!

How does a tummy tuck with stitches work?

This new tummy tuck technique is performed with PDO sutures. These are approx. 5-7 cm long and are inserted using the “criss-cross technique”.

How does a tummy tuck with stitches work?

The “criss cross” technique in thread lifting is a special method used in non-surgical thread lifts or PDO thread lifts (polydioxanone thread lifts). This technique is designed to achieve a particularly effective tightening and lifting of the skin by placing the threads in a criss-cross pattern.

Procedure of the thread lift

At the beginning of the treatment , the patient’s skin is cleansed and a local anaesthetic cream is applied to the areas of the body to be treated in order to minimize pain and discomfort.

The doctor then marks the areas where the stitches are to be inserted. These markings are usually made along the contours of the area to be treated, in the case of a tummy tuck along the abdominal region. The polydioxanone threads are inserted into the skin using a special needle. With the “criss-cross” technique, the threads are not only placed in parallel, but in an oblique or criss-cross pattern. Once the threads are inserted, the doctor carefully crosses them to achieve additional lifting and tightening of the skin. This crossing of the threads creates a network or grid pattern under the skin that lifts and smoothes the skin.

Major benefit - stimulation of collagen production

Similar to other thread lifting procedures, PDO threads stimulate the production of collagen in the body. Collagen is a crucial protein for the elasticity and firmness of the skin and ensures firm skin and a youthful appearance!

Especially after childbirth or severe weight loss, excess skin can occur, which can be restored to its former radiance by means of skin tightening!

Who is suitable for this tummy tuck method?

The decision to perform a tummy tuck using PDO sutures or polydioxanone sutures should be made after careful consideration. Not everyone is automatically a suitable candidate for this procedure. The treatment is particularly popular for Women after pregnancy or after weight loss.

This means that the treatment is particularly suitable for those whose skin has already lost some of its firmness, but is not extremelysaggy or severely overstretched.

Advantages of a tummy tuck with stitches

A tummy tuck with sutures offers a number of advantages over other treatments, especially when compared to traditional surgical procedures such as a tummy tuck. Here are some of the key benefits:

  • Minimally invasive: This procedure is minimally invasive, which means that only small incisions or punctures are required. In contrast to a tummy tuck, no large incisions or extensive removal of skin and fatty tissue are necessary.
  • Less downtime: Most patients have a faster recovery after a tummy tuck using sutures compared to traditional tummy tuck procedures. Downtime is usually shorter and most people can return to their normal activities after a few days.
  • Minimally visible scars: As only small incisions are made, the scars are usually minimal and often barely visible. This is a great advantage for patients who are concerned about scarring.
  • No general anesthesia required: A tummy tuck with stitches can usually be performed under local anesthesia or light sedation, which reduces the risk of anesthetic complications.
  • Natural looking results: The threads are placed under the skin to achieve a natural tightening and lifting effect. The results often look very natural and continue to develop over time as collagen production is stimulated.
  • Short procedure: A tummy tuck with stitches usually takes less time than traditional tummy tuck procedures. The procedure can often be completed in an hour or less.
  • No hospitalization required: As this is an outpatient procedure, hospitalization is not usually required. Most patients can leave the clinic on the same day.
  • Suitable for different skin types: Stitch abdominoplasty can be suitable for different skin types and skin tones without the risk of scarring or pigmentation changes.

However, it is important to note that the choice between a tummy tuck with stitches and other treatment methods depends on the patient’s individual needs and goals. A thorough consultation with an experienced plastic surgeon is crucial to determine the best option for your personal needs and expectations.

Risks and side effects of a thread lift

As with any treatment, there can be risks and side effects with a thread lift for a tummy tuck. However, these are generally less severe compared to traditional tummy tuck procedures. It is important to be aware of these potential risks and discuss them with your specialist before you decide to have the procedure.

Externally, there are no side effects to be expected, apart from slight swelling, slight pain or bruising, which will disappear on their own after a while. Dr. Barbara Franz is a specialist in treatments such as thread lifting and will take good care of you!

Which other areas are suitable for a thread lift?

The anti-ageing treatment with the Morpheus 8

The unique aspect of Morpheus 8 lies in its ability to treat not only the outer layer of skin, but also the underlying tissue. Through the targeted release of heat energy into the deeper layers of the skin, Morpheus 8 stimulates the Production of collagen a key element for firm and youthful looking skin.

What is the new microneedling radiofrequency therapy with the Morpheus 8?

Morpheus 8 is an innovative treatment method in aesthetic medicine that uses a combination of microneedling and radiofrequency technology to improve skin structure and effectively combat the ageing process.

Microneedling involves inserting tiny, fine needles into the skin, creating targeted micro-injuries. This controlled damage stimulates the body’s natural healing process and promotes the production of collagen and elastin – two essential ingredients for firm and youthful looking skin. The microneedling component of Morpheus 8 allows for precise treatment and can be customized to the specific needs of each patient.

Morpheus 8’s radiofrequency technology uses high-frequency electrical energy to deliver heat to the deeper layers of the skin. This controlled heat energy further stimulates collagen production and supports skin tightening. By using microneedling and radiofrequency simultaneously, Morpheus 8 achieves a synergistic effect that enables comprehensive treatment of both the outer skin layer and the underlying tissue.

Morpheus 8 - The treatment of the stars!

How does radiofrequency needling work with the Morpheus 8?

The local anesthetic cream is usually applied to the skin about 30 minutes before the treatment and ensures that the treatment is as painless as possible.

Duration and frequency of treatment

The duration of Morpheus 8 treatment varies depending on the areas treated and the patient’s specific goals. As a rule, a session lasts around 30 to 60 minutes. The number of recommended treatments also varies, depending on individual needs and the desired result. In most cases, several sessions are performed a few weeks apart to achieve optimal results.

Why do you need Morpheus8 treatment?

Morpheus 8 treatment is considered for a variety of reasons to address certain aesthetic concerns and improve skin texture. Here are some common reasons why people choose a Morpheus 8 treatment:

  • Skin ageing: With increasing age, the skin loses firmness and elasticity. Wrinkles, fine lines and sagging skin can appear. Morpheus 8 stimulates collagen production and promotes skin firming, reducing the signs of ageing.
  • Scars: Acne scars, surgical scars or other types of scars can affect the appearance of the skin and impact self-confidence. Morpheus 8 can help improve the appearance of scars by stimulating the production of new collagen and promoting a more even skin texture.
  • Skin blemishes: Morpheus 8 can also be helpful in the treatment of skin blemishes such as acne and pigmentation spots. By stimulating collagen, the skin structure can be improved and imperfections reduced.
  • Skin tightening: Morpheus 8 can offer a non-surgical alternative to skin tightening for sagging skin, particularly on the face, neck or décolleté. The treatment stimulates collagen production, which can tighten the skin and give it a more youthful appearance.
  • Improving skin texture: Irregularities in skin texture such as enlarged pores, unevenness or coarse-pored skin can be treated with Morpheus 8. The treatment promotes collagen production and leads to a smoother and more even skin texture.

How do pigmentation and age spots form?

Even if we know nothing but taut, flawless skin from the media – sooner or later, everyone makes the acquaintance of light to dark brown discolored areas of skin of various shapes and sizes, so-called pigment spots, which are caused by an overproduction of melanin.But moles in exposed areas, pigment spots on the face or décolleté, dark age spots on the hands and shoulders are also an unpleasant cosmetic problem for many of those affected.

Pigment disorders and pigment spots can be found in almost everyone!

The reasons for hyperpigmentation vary: on the one hand there are birthmarks that are already present from birth, on the other hand there are those that only develop over time. These include freckles or pigment spots, which can occur primarily on the upper lip, cheeks and forehead as a result of hormonal factors during pregnancy (chloasma) or are also due to the use of medication. However, pigmentation disorders also often occur with injuries or inflammatory skin diseases. Acne patients are very frequently affected.

Age spots, which usually appear as small dark spots on the back of the hands, arms, shoulders and face, are the result of excessive exposure to ultraviolet radiation from the sun.

What are hyperpigmentations actually?

This refers to an “excess” of pigment accumulation in the skin, especially in areas of the body that are frequently exposed to the sun, such as the forehead, upper lip area, cheeks, décolleté and arms. Depending on the cause of the hyperpigmentation, a distinction is made between age spots, lens spots, melasma and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.

Lens spots: These are caused by pigment accumulation due to too much sun or sunburn.

Age spots: From the age of 30, our melanocytes can no longer distribute the pigment evenly in the skin (“ageing phenomenon of melanocytes”), which means that they release melanin more intensively to some skin cells than to others: this is how the unloved first “age spots” appear – typically the size of a lentil and on the face, décolleté and arms (back of the hand).

Melasma: a very special, stubborn form of hyperpigmentation, as the “too much” pigment can accumulate in deeper layers of the skin (dermis). The cause here – in addition to a genetic predisposition – can usually be found in our hormones: hormonal contraception (pill, coil) or a previous pregnancy can be the trigger for melasma.

Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation: These are small, healed injuries or inflammations in the skin such as pimples, insect bites, etc., which eventually heal into dark pigmentation.

This applies to all forms of pigmentation disorders:

Only clearly benign skin changes are treated with laser, peelings or bleaching cream! (If malignant skin changes are suspected, they are immediately surgically removed and histologically clarified).

What exactly happens during the treatment?

Depending on the diagnosis, peelings and/or bleaching creams are used before the laser treatment, the skin is cleansed and any hair is removed.

When removing individual pigmentation spots, the surrounding skin is covered so that only the pigment is captured by the laser. In the case of extensive pigmentation, e.g. especially in the facial area, a local anesthetic gel is also applied to the skin before the laser treatment.

In the case of superficial pigment – i.e. treatment with ILP lasers – the pigmented area in the skin is broken up into several small pigments so that these can be absorbed by the body’s own scavenger cells and then broken down.

In the case of deeper pigment, fractional CO2 laser technology is used to create tiny wound channels in the skin, which “thin out” the pigment. This results in intensive wound healing and the release of growth factors, which also slightly tightens and firms the skin.

In the case of very dark or deeply embedded pigment, an ablative procedure is used, i.e. pigment is removed step by step in layers using a CO2 laser.

During the laser treatment, the patient only feels the heat of the light. It is not usually necessary to anesthetize the skin. For extremely sensitive skin areas and high sensitivity to pain, an anesthetic substance can of course be applied at the patient’s request to make the treatment as comfortable as possible.

The skin is cooled after the treatment. This soothes it and minimizes any redness that may occur.

The following areas and skin problems can be treated:

  • Scars (after acne, OPS or burns)
  • Pigmentation disorders of any kind on the back of the hands, arms and face
  • Sun damage
  • Wrinkles on the face and around the sensitive skin area
  • Large-pored skin

The individual treatment of cosmetically disturbing, benign skin tags and warts/age wartsis carried out using a CO2 laser. The current and innovative form of therapy to remove skin changes under local anesthesia within a few minutes – without sutures.

The aesthetically pleasing result is very important to me!

After an individual consultation, I can determine whether this application is an option. Only certain skin tumors allow this type of removal:

  • Fibromas: (protruding tumors of the skin that are soft and hang down like small bags on the neck, armpits or in the genital area)
  • Benign birthmarks
  • Warts
  • Age warts
  • Condylomas
  • Xanthelasma
  • Syringome

Modern laser technology for soft, smooth and radiant skin

I work with both fractional CO2 lasers and IPL lasers to successfully treat the many small wrinkles typical of the face (“elastase”) and neck. These innovative laser treatments make it possible to vaporize the skin in the form of microscopically small heat columns or to tighten the skin over a large area.

New collagen is formed!

In addition, there is a shrinking effect: existing collagen bundles contract strongly. Fresh, new skin is formed, which refines the overall skin texture.

The result is soft, smooth and radiant skin.

Important FAQs on the treatment of pigment and age spots

As the skin is very fresh and sensitive after the treatment, you should avoid extensive sunbathing for a few weeks. In addition, not only should sun creams with a high sun protection factor be used to avoid further UV-induced hyperpigmentation, but also appropriate day creams with a high sun protection factor should be used to keep the treatment results fresh for as long as possible.

To maintain an even complexion after the laser treatment, I recommend an anti-aging cream with natural, brightening ingredients. This is available in our practice!
In my practice I offer a special laser treatment with which freckles can be removed quickly and without scarring.
This always depends on the depth of the pigment. In principle, all forms of hyperpigmentation can be lightened and many can be removed completely.
In addition to redness and slight swelling, slight flaking may occur. In the case of very dark and deep pigment spots and when using the CO2 laser, you should expect gray scaling that lasts for 2-3 days.
Applying the bleaching cream I developed every other evening and daily sun protection can ensure a long-lasting, permanent result.

Excessive sweating

Treating hyperhidrosis with Botox

Everything at a glance

  • Treatment duration: 30 minutes
  • Anesthesia: none
  • Sociability: immediately
  • Durability of the results: approx. 6 months

Botox reliably helps with excessive sweating

Sweat is a natural reaction of the body that serves to regulate heat. Excessive sweat production is usually caused by overexcitability of the autonomic nervous system, which not only leads to social problems but can also be psychologically stressful.

In my practice in Vienna, I inject Botox after applying an anesthetic cream, Botox very superficially into the affected areas. There it reliably blocks the sweat glands.

The following areas of the body are treated with Botox:

  • Palms
  • Soles of the feet
  • Armpits
  • Forehead (alternating sweating)

What are spider veins?

Small veins, popularly known as spider veins, are one of the really annoying blemishes that many women suffer from. But they don’t have to be. The telangiectasias, as they are medically called, can be removed easily and safely.

Spider veins are dilated, fine veins on the legs that lie directly under the skin. They are usually reddish to purple in color. The cause is thought to be a weakness in the connective tissue, which encourages the dilation of the small and delicate blood vessels, with a hereditary predisposition also playing a role.

The ideal time to treat spider veins is in the fall and winter.

Spider veins can appear as early as the age of 20. The development of spider veins cannot be prevented and they do not disappear if left untreated.

For treatment, which should be carried out as early as possible, it must always be clarified beforehand whether the patient also suffers from varicose veins in the deep leg veins. If this is the case, these must first be treated surgically.

How are spider veins removed?

Spider veins are removed using sclerotherapy = sclerotherapy. In this type of treatment, the active ingredient aethoxysclerol is injected directly into the fine, bluish veins using a small injection needle, thereby destroying the inner wall of the blood vessel in question. As a result of the treatment, blood cones are deposited on the vessel wall, preventing further blood flow through the vein.

In this way, these changes in the veins can be easily reduced. This technique glues the veins together and, like laser treatment, causes the residues to be transformed by the body into connective tissue within a period of 4-6 weeks and thus disappear.

What needs to be considered during sclerotherapy?

  • Wearing support stockings during the day is recommended for the following seven days.
  • Sunbathing, tanning beds and tanning creams should be avoided for 4-6 weeks after the treatment, as this can lead to pigmentation disorders in the treated skin area.
  • Small bruises may form around the puncture site, but these can be treated with ointments and disappear quickly.
  • Hot baths and saunas should be avoided for one week
  • You should avoid sporting activities that are associated with increased sweating for 3 days, as otherwise the veins will dilate again, which can impair the success of the therapy.

Important to know: An underlying disease such as a connective tissue weakness or an insufficient deep leg vein system cannot be eliminated by sclerotherapy. New vein dilatations can occur again over time.

Fat-away injection

Against annoying fat pads & fat rolls

Everything at a glance

  • Treatment duration: 10 to 20 minutes
  • Anesthesia: not necessary
  • Social skills: The effect begins immediately after treatment, which is immediately noticeable in the form of swelling, redness and a "tingling sensation" - a good sign of the onset of action. Slight bruising may occur on sensitive skin.
  • Visibility of results: after approx. 8 weeks
  • Durability of the results: The best thing about the fat removal injection is that once the fat cells have been eliminated from the body, they do not come back! To achieve the best possible results, a healthy diet and exercise are recommended.
  • Side effects: A slight "sore muscle feeling" may occur immediately after treatment. Sometimes slight redness and swelling can be noticed. Minor bruising may occur on particularly sensitive skin.

What is the fat-away injection?

Our body makes provisions for bad times whenever possible. Subcutaneous fatty tissue is stored close under the skin, creating fat rolls and fat deposits. The distribution of these fat reserves is genetically predetermined and cannot be satisfactorily altered by exercise or dieting. Weight loss only leads to a reduction in fatty tissue. After stopping the diet, subsequent weight gain leads to the reappearance of fat deposits in exactly the same places.

Fat pads and fat deposits that do not disappear through diet and dietary changes or through exercise and sport can be melted away in a targeted and permanent way with the fat removal injection.

A desirable side effect of the treatment is the tightening of the tissue, as the skin contracts during the fat reduction process.

8 out of 10 patients are satisfied with the result of the treatment

Optimal results can be achieved with smaller areas of fat on the stomach, hips, “love handles”, chin, the anterior axillary fold (in the area of the bikini straps), the “bull neck” and lipomas (fat tumors). The results of the treatment are usually clearly visible after just 4-6 weeks.

And the best thing is: once the fat cells have been eliminated from the body, they don’t come back!

In order to benefit from the treatment in the long term, it is always beneficial to integrate exercise and a healthy diet into daily life.

General weight reduction and obesity itself cannot be treated with the fat-away injection!

How does treatment with the fat-away injection work?

In my practice I use the active ingredient phosphatidylcholine (a natural substance obtained from soybeans) and L-carnithine. Both active ingredients efficiently support lipolysis, the breakdown of fat cells.

First, the affected treatment areas are marked on the standing patient. The active ingredient is then injected into the intended areas of the body – directly into the fatty tissue – with the finest needle material while the patient is lying down. And since there are no nerves in the fatty tissue, the injections are virtually painless. The treatment only takes a few minutes. Additional anesthesia is not necessary.

How many treatments are necessary?

The number of treatments depends on the size of the fat deposits and the individual reaction of the tissue. Each patient receives a customized treatment plan. Individually tailored to the skin and tissue condition, localization of the fat deposits and the amount that needs to be removed.

Optimal are 2-4 treatments at intervals of 3 weeks.

Many women suffer from sagging upper arms

The reason for sagging upper arms, which are often also called bat sleeves or “bingowings”, is usually severe weight loss or skin ageing. The connective tissue weakens. The sagging skin on the upper arms is then often difficult and difficult to hide.

Even special physical training usually does nothing to change the undesirable position. Unattractive skin folds can develop in the arms in particular, especially around the elbows, but also on the inside of the upper arms.

Slim and toned upper arms are what many women want!

With body shaping and body lifting on the upper and lower arms, this need not remain a dream. For a particularly long-lasting effect, I recommend a combination therapy of hyaluronic acid treatment, thread lift and lipolysis.

Arm lift with the Morpheus 8

The new innovative microneedling treatment with the Morpheus 8 is a popular method for arm tightening! Thanks to the latest radio frequency technology, this treatment has the advantage that the patient does not have to reckon with any wound or crust formation – so there is no downtime and the patient is immediately fit for social life again after the treatment!

Advantages of the Morpheus 8

  • Use of radio frequency energy with the advantage of short downtimes
  • No surgery necessary thanks to the minimally invasive treatment technique
  • Variety of application areas
  • Suitable for all skin types
  • Combination with other beauty treatments possible

Arm lift with active ingredient booster hyaluron

The active ingredient formula specially designed for this area, which intensively boosts collagen formation , shows wonderful results here. This active ingredient booster is applied superficially to the skin and is virtually painless.

This is not about volume reduction, but about medium-term tightening of the skin and subcutaneous connective tissue using many small PDO threads that are placed painlessly under the skin.

As the tissue is strengthened by the formation of the body’s own collagen fibers, the first results can be seen after 8-12 weeks.
Depending on the need for an upper arm lift, 2-3 treatments at intervals of 6-8 weeks are recommended.

Arm lift using lipolysis & thread lifting

Wrinkled and flabby upper arms – often referred to as “angular arms” – can be a major burden for any woman. If you are not satisfied with the volume of your upper or lower arms, the excess fat is first removed using fat removal injection removed and subsequently a thread lift to tighten the arms. Here, self-dissolving threads are inserted under the skin on the inside and outside of the upper arms to tighten the arms and activate the connective tissue.
