Ulthera's ultrasound system lands FDA OK to "tighten turkey necks and smooth out double chins"

Medical device company Ulthera touts an FDA win for its latest Ulthera System, which is designed to non-invasively lift lax tissue on the neck and under the chin.

Arizona- based medical device company Ulthera won FDA clearance for its ultrasound platform device, which is designed to use the body's natural healing process to non-invasively lift and tighten loose skin on the neck and under the chin.

The Ulthera System combines ultrasound imaging with focused ultrasound therapy, representing the only energy-based device with an indication to "tighten turkey necks and smooth out double-chins," the company said.
