Ultherapy uses focused ultrasound to reach the layer beneath the skin where collagen is made, and to prompt your body to build more of it. Over the months that follow, the skin gradually lifts and firms. I perform every Ultherapy treatment myself, only after we have had a consultation. The consultation is where I look at how far your skin has loosened, and where we decide together whether Ultherapy is the right choice for you.

How Ultherapy Works
During a session I pass the Ultherapy handpiece over the area we are treating. It delivers focused ultrasound energy to a set depth beneath the surface, where the warmth prompts your body to produce new collagen, while the skin above is left undisturbed. Because that collagen is built by your own body over the following months, the improvement arrives gradually, which is also why the result looks natural.
Where I Use Ultherapy
Ultherapy is most often asked about for the face, but the same principle applies wherever skin has loosened. These are the areas I treat:
Brow — a non-surgical brow lift
Full face
Neck
Décolletage
Upper arms (underside)
Around the knees
The abdomen, around the navel
Not every area calls for the same plan, so we will settle which areas make sense for you, and in what order, at the consultation.
How We Plan Your Sessions
For most areas I plan two sessions: one to start, then a second three to six months later. That is a planning reference, not a rule. How many sessions you need, and how far apart, depends on the area and on how your skin responds. We will settle it together as we go.
I frequently pair one Ultherapy session with one session of hyperdilute Radiesse. It is an option we can talk through at your consultation, if it suits what you would like to improve.
When will I see my results?
Some clients see an initial tightening, but most of your improvements will occur over the following 2-3 months, as your body builds new collagen and elastin.
How long will my results last?
Because Ultherapy triggers new collagen production, your results last for about one year. Then the natural decline of collagen comes back into play, so another Ultherapy session can be scheduled to maintain your results.
What to Expect on the Day
How long a session takes depends on the area. A full face takes about two and a half hours, which is why I prefer to treat the full face over two visits, so that you are comfortable throughout. Numbing is optional. We will talk about comfort before we start. You decide what you would like.
Are there side effects, or is recovery required?
Right after treatment the skin can look flushed for a few hours. Some swelling is common and can last from a few hours to about three days. Tenderness or bruising, where it happens, can persist from a couple of days to two weeks. Occasionally a treated area feels numb or tingly along a nerve for a while; the manufacturer’s figures put that at two to six weeks. There is no downtime — most people go straight back to their day.
Is Ultherapy Right for You?
Ultherapy is a treatment for skin that has begun to loosen, but it is not the answer for everyone. I would rather we find that out at the consultation than after a treatment. I will look at your skin, listen to what concerns you, and share what I think Ultherapy can improve for you, and what it cannot. Then we decide together. If I am not confident it will give you an improvement you would notice, I will say so. We will look at the other options together — sometimes that is a different treatment, sometimes it is waiting.
Pricing and Your Consultation
Ultherapy is priced by area. As a guide, treatment ranges from about $750 for a brow lift to about $3,500 for the full face and neck. Other areas, such as the décolletage, upper arms, knees and abdomen, are priced at your consultation, once I have seen how much treatment the area needs. The consultation is $150, waived if you proceed with treatment.
Introductory offer: 20% off Ultherapy for a limited time. Ask about it when you book your consultation.
I usually plan two: one to start, then a second three to six months later. That is a planning reference, not a rule. The area, and how your skin responds, decide it. We settle it together at your consultation.
How long does an Ultherapy session take?
It depends on the area. A full face takes about two and a half hours, which I prefer to split over two visits so that you are comfortable. We will tell you what to expect for your area when you book.
Is numbing available for Ultherapy?
Yes. Numbing is optional, so we will talk about comfort before we start. You decide what you would like.
Which areas can Ultherapy treat?
I use it on the brow, the full face, the neck, the décolletage, the underside of the upper arms, around the knees, and the abdomen around the navel, wherever skin has loosened.
How much does Ultherapy cost in Walnut Creek?
From about $750 for a brow lift to about $3,500 for the full face and neck. Other areas are priced at the consultation. The consultation is $150, waived if you proceed.
Can Ultherapy be combined with other treatments?
I frequently pair one Ultherapy session with one session of hyperdilute Radiesse. Whether that combination suits you is something we decide at the consultation.
Can Ultherapy lift the brow?
Yes. A non-surgical brow lift is one of the things I use Ultherapy for. PDO threads and Botox can lift the brow too, each in its own way, so at the consultation we will decide together which of the three suits you.
HydraFacial with Jennifer is truly a luxury experience. My skin always looks and feels amazing afterward: hydrated, refreshed, and glowing. Jennifer makes the whole experience so relaxing and enjoyable. I always look forward to my appointments with her!
I’ve gone to Dr. Moazemi at Beau Visage several times, including visits with colleagues, laser treatments and microneedling. He is always incredibly kind, gentle, and easy to work with. He takes his time, makes you feel comfortable, and is very accommodating with scheduling. His pricing is also excellent and very reasonable for the quality of care and treatments he provides. I’ve had a consistently great experience and would definitely recommend him!
I started microneedling with Dr. Moazemi this year and the results have been amazing, my skin is glowy and bouncy. I’d had microneedling before elsewhere and never got results like this. Dr. Moazemi is thorough in explaining treatments and recommends plans that actually deliver.
I also get hydrafacials from Jen, and I bring my mom too, we both love the results, especially before big events.
The space is friendly and professional from top to bottom. Highly recommend!!
I have gotten treatments from both Jen and Dr. Moazemi and would highly recommend this clinic! They are so friendly and professional and love that they offer such a wide range of services. 10/10 would recommend!
I cannot recommend Beau Visage highly enough, and Dr. Moazemi is truly in a league of his own. Not only is he exceptionally skilled in facial aesthetics, but his bedside manner is also unparalleled. He is incredibly kind, patient, and always takes the time to thoroughly answer every question I have so I never feel rushed. In an industry that can sometimes feel transactional, it is very clear that Dr. Moazemi genuinely cares about achieving the best possible outcomes for his patients rather than just pushing procedures. I completely trust him with my face and wouldn’t go to anyone else.
I had an appointment with Dr. Moazemi for Botox and filler, and I couldn’t be happier with my experience. From the start, he took the time to thoroughly explain the procedures, including the areas that could be improved, and never pressured me into anything. He’s kind, confident, and made me feel completely comfortable throughout.
It’s only day 3, and I can already see results! I know the final results aren’t fully settled yet, but I can already notice more symmetry and natural enhancement. I highly recommend Dr. Moazemi to anyone looking for someone professional, thoughtful, and talented.
I have been coming to Dr. Moazemi for treatments over the last year including Botox, PRP injections, and recently a Hydrafacial. I couldn’t recommend him enough! Everyone was so kind and professional. Pricing was very fair, especially since you are receiving the best quality of care and products. Dr. Moazemi was incredibly knowledgeable about facial anatomy and took the time to explain everything. I’m very happy with my results and my skin has never looked better. I would absolutely recommend this place to anyone!
I really enjoyed my experience here! I’ve had a few facials with Jen and her and Dr. Moazemi do a phenomenal job helping you with all the treatments they provide and also do a wonderful job educating you on how to take care of your skin. I’ve had the Hydrafacial and the Ultimate Glow Facial and you can’t go wrong with anything in their menu. 10/10 you’ll leave feeling absolutely satisfied after your session.
After reading the tons of positive online reviews about the Beau Visage Aesthetics, I decided to give it a try. And I'm so glad I did. I've been a client for about 2 years now, and i couldn't have been happier. Dr. Moazemi is very knowledgeable and patient. He explains the procedures in details and takes the time to answer all the questions. His precise hand and knowledge about human anatomy and physiology plays a big role in the always best outcomes of every procedure he does.I trust Dr.Moazemi 100%, and I highly recommend him. Thank you for keeping me beautiful :))
Dr. Moazemi has been wonderful to work with. When I started considering laser hair removal I called around to so many places because I know working with Hispanic skin can be challenging and not all lasers work. Dr. Moazemi called me back personally to discuss the options and make a recommendation. I’ve had two treatments so far and have had way more hair reduction than I expected. His prices are also very good for this area. Highly recommend Beau Visage!
