ULTRAFORMER III FULL VERSION
Because Different Concerns Exist at Different Depths.
Skin aging is not a single-layer problem.
Fine lines may sit close to the skin surface.
Loss of firmness may involve deeper dermal tissue.
Facial laxity may require treatment at the SMAS-level region, while selected body-contouring concerns involve deeper subcutaneous tissue.
Ultraformer III was developed around this concept.
Its Full Version uses seven interchangeable cartridges, each designed to deliver focused ultrasound energy
at a specific depth.

WHAT IS ULTRAFORMER III?
Ultraformer III is an energy-based aesthetic device developed by CLASSYS.
It uses Micro & Macro Focused Ultrasound, often abbreviated as MMFU.
Unlike radiofrequency treatments that distribute heat across broader tissue zones, Ultraformer III delivers concentrated ultrasound energy into precisely selected focal depths beneath the skin.
Each pulse creates a small thermal coagulation point at the selected depth while leaving the skin surface largely unaffected.
The resulting thermal response supports:
- Tissue contraction
- Collagen remodeling
- New collagen formation
- Improved skin firmness
- Progressive lifting and contour refinement
WHAT DOES FULL VERSION MEAN?
The Difference Is Treatment Depth and Versatility.
The Ultraformer III platform can be configured with different cartridges.
At LIV Clinic, the Full Version means access to the complete multi-depth treatment approach:
FACE CARTRIDGES
1.5 mm
Upper dermal / superficial skin-quality support
2.0 mm — MF2
Designed for narrow, delicate facial areas including fine wrinkles around the forehead, eyes and mouth
3.0 mm
Deeper dermal treatment for skin tightening and collagen remodeling
4.5 mm
Deeper facial structural treatment commonly associated with the SMAS-level region
BODY CARTRIDGES
6.0 mm
9.0 mm
13.0 mm
Macro-focused cartridges designed for deeper subcutaneous treatment on selected body areas.
Ultraformer III’s official brochure lists all seven interchangeable cartridges from 1.5 to 13 mm.
Why Does This Matter?
Because:
Fine Lines ≠ Jawline Laxity ≠ Double Chin ≠ Abdominal Tissue
Different concerns require different treatment depths.
HOW DOES ULTRAFORMER III WORK?
STEP 1 — The Treatment Depth Is Selected
Your doctor assesses the treatment area, skin thickness, facial anatomy and treatment goal before choosing the appropriate cartridge.
STEP 2 — Focused Ultrasound Energy Is Delivered
Ultrasound energy travels through the skin without treating the entire surface layer.
STEP 3 — Thermal Coagulation Points Form
Energy converges at the cartridge’s focal depth, creating controlled thermal points within the targeted tissue.
STEP 4 — Tissue Contracts
The heat response can create an early tissue-contraction effect.
STEP 5 — Collagen Remodeling Continues
Over the following weeks and months, collagen remodeling and renewal may progressively improve skin firmness and contour.
Micro vs. Macro Focused Ultrasound
MICRO FOCUSED
Designed for facial depths and collagen-related tightening.
MACRO FOCUSED
Uses lower-frequency, deeper treatment cartridges for selected body regions and deeper subcutaneous tissue.
Ultraformer III’s official technical materials describe this combined technology as Micro & Macro Focused Ultrasound.
WHO IS ULTRAFORMER III FOR?
Ultraformer III may be considered for
people who want non-surgical tightening,
lifting or body-contouring support.
Facial Concerns
- Mild-to-moderate facial laxity
- Softer jawline
- Early jowls
- Loose cheeks
- Fine lines
- Crow’s feet
- Reduced skin firmness
- Mild neck laxity
- Double-chin concerns
- Reduced facial definition
Body Concerns
- Loose-looking upper arms
- Abdominal tissue laxity
- Flanks / love handles
- Thigh contour
- Selected body areas with
localized subcutaneous fullness
WHAT CAN ULTRAFORMER III IMPROVE?
Facial Lifting
Focused ultrasound can support deeper facial tightening without surgery.
Jawline Definition
Treatment can help improve the appearance of a softer lower-face contour.
Early Jowls
Improved tissue tightening may make early jowling appear less prominent.
Double-Chin Contour
Selected deeper cartridges may be incorporated into treatment when tissue thickness and anatomy are appropriate.
Neck Tightening
Focused ultrasound may improve mild neck laxity.
Fine Lines
The 1.5 and 2.0 mm treatment depths provide options for more superficial facial concerns.
Skin Firmness
Collagen remodeling can progressively improve the feeling and appearance of firmness.
Body Contouring
Macro-focused cartridges expand Ultraformer III treatment beyond the face into selected body areas.
JAWLINE & LOWER FACE
The lower face is one of the most common areas where reduced structural support becomes noticeable.
You may begin to see:
- Softer jawline definition
- Early jowling
- Less separation between face and neck
- Lower-cheek laxity
Using different cartridges, Ultraformer III can treat more than one layer during the same treatment plan.
For example:
3.0 mm
Targets deeper dermal tissue.
4.5 mm
Targets a deeper structural level commonly associated with lifting treatments.
The objective is not to change the shape of your jaw artificially.
It is to help existing contours look firmer and more refined.
DOUBLE CHIN
Ultraformer III for Double-Chin Concerns
A double chin can have multiple causes:
- Submental fat
- Skin laxity
- Facial anatomy
- Chin projection
- A combination of factors
Ultraformer III may be considered when skin tightening and deeper subcutaneous treatment are appropriate parts of the treatment plan.
The full range of cartridges allows the provider to select depths according to tissue thickness rather than using the same cartridge for everyone.
Important
Not every double chin is primarily a fat problem.
And not every double chin should be treated with HIFU alone.
At LIV Clinic, we assess the underlying cause before recommending treatment
NECK
Ultraformer III for Neck Tightening
The neck can gradually develop:
- Fine lines
- Reduced firmness
- Loose-looking skin
- Less defined jaw-to-neck transition
Ultraformer III may be used to deliver focused ultrasound across selected neck depths to support tissue tightening and collagen remodeling.
AROUND THE EYES
Ultraformer III Around the Eyes
The eye area requires shallower and more precise treatment than the jawline.
Ultraformer III’s Full Version includes:
1.5 mm Cartridge
For superficial facial concerns.
2.0 mm MF2 Cartridge
Designed specifically for narrow and delicate regions such as the:
- Forehead
- Crow’s feet
- Eye contour
- Fine lines around the mouth
BODY TIGHTENING & CONTOURING
Ultraformer III for Body Tightening & Contouring
Ultraformer III is not only a facial HIFU device.
The Full Version includes Macro Focused Ultrasound cartridges at 6, 9 and 13 mm, allowing deeper treatment of selected body regions.
Potential areas include:
Upper Arms
Support tightening of loose-looking upper-arm tissue.
Abdomen
For selected patients with subcutaneous fullness and tissue laxity.
Flanks / Love Handles
May be incorporated into a body-contouring plan.
Thighs
Macro-focused ultrasound can be applied to selected thigh regions.
Knees
Selected areas around the knee may be treated depending on anatomy.
RESULTS & TIMELINE
When Will You See a Difference?
Ultraformer III results develop progressively.
Immediately After Treatment
Some patients may notice a temporary sensation of firmness or subtle tightening.
Around 4 Weeks
Early tissue remodeling may begin to become more noticeable.
Around 2–3 Months
Collagen-related changes continue to develop.
This period is commonly when facial tightening and contour improvement become more apparent.
Following Treatment
Results can continue to evolve as new collagen forms and treated tissue remodels.
HOW MANY SHOTS?
How Many Ultraformer III Shots Do You Need?
There is no universal Ultraformer III shot count that is ideal for everyone.
The number of shots depends on:
- Treatment area
- Facial size
- Degree of laxity
- Number of depths treated
- Cartridge combination
- Tissue thickness
- Body area
- Desired result
Why “Full Version” Matters
The objective is not simply to deliver a large number of shots.
A well-designed treatment may distribute shots across different depths.
For example:
Jawline
3.0 + 4.5 mm
versus
Fine Eye Area
1.5 + 2.0 mm
versus
Body
6 + 9 + 13 mm depending on tissue thickness.
More Shots ≠ Automatically Better.
HOW MANY SESSIONS?
How Many Ultraformer III Sessions Do You Need?
Ultraformer III is often performed as a single comprehensive treatment followed by observation as collagen remodeling develops.
Depending on the degree of laxity and desired outcome, your doctor may later recommend maintenance.

PAIN & DOWNTIME
Is Ultraformer III Painful?
Focused ultrasound creates thermal points beneath the skin, so sensations may include:
- Heat
- Tingling
- Pinching
- Brief electrical-like sensations
- Deeper tenderness in selected areas
Treatment sensation varies according to:
- Cartridge depth
- Energy
- Facial area
- Bone proximity
- Individual sensitivity
The 2.0 mm MF2 cartridge was specifically designed with a slimmer transducer for narrow and sensitive facial regions.
Is There Downtime?
Most patients can return to normal daily activities relatively quickly.
Temporary reactions may include:
- Redness
- Mild swelling
- Tenderness
- Tingling
- Temporary sensitivity
BEFORE TREATMENT
How to Prepare Before Ultraformer III
Before treatment, tell your LIV Clinic medical team about:
