Between East 60th and East 90th Street you’ll find more places offering Ultherapy than almost anywhere else in the city. That makes choosing harder, not easier. A good result depends less on the address and more on who plans the treatment, which system they use, and whether they’ll tell you honestly if Ultherapy is the right tool for your face.
Below are five Upper East Side practices we’d short-list for a consultation, and what each one does best.
How we picked
- The provider. Physician-led practices, or medical spas with a named medical director.
- The system. Whether the practice works with Ultherapy PRIME, the current platform with real-time ultrasound imaging.
- Treatment range. Whether Ultherapy can be combined with fillers, threads or skin treatments in one plan.
- Clarity. How openly the practice explains timelines, comfort and aftercare.

1. Dr. Jennifer Levine — East 79th Street
A double board-certified facial plastic surgeon who treats with Ultherapy PRIME and has spoken about the platform in industry media. Because she also performs surgery, a consultation here can answer the question many patients quietly bring with them: is a non-surgical lift enough for my face right now?
2. VisoDent NY — Park Avenue at East 79th Street
VisoDent NY is a dental practice with a full facial aesthetics side, which is rare on the Upper East Side. For the lower face that combination matters: the jawline, lips and smile are planned together instead of by separate offices.
Ultherapy here sits alongside PDO and PCL threads, dermal fillers, Botox, Virtue RF and laser treatments. A plan might pair Ultherapy for gradual tightening with filler for lost volume, rather than asking one device to do everything. Every plan starts with a consultation, and a maintenance visit is usually discussed for six to twelve months after the first session.

3. Marmur Medical — East 87th Street
Dermatologist Dr. Ellen Marmur’s Carnegie Hill practice offers Ultherapy PRIME next to cosmetic and medical dermatology. A good fit if you’d like one practice to look after both your skin health and your lifting treatments over the years.
4. Smooth Synergy Medical Spa & Laser Center — East 79th Street
A long-running med spa, open since 2002, with Dr. George Liakeas as medical director. Its Ultherapy menu is one of the broadest nearby, covering brows, neck and chest as well as body areas such as arms, abdomen and knees. It also offers nitrous oxide for patients worried about discomfort.
5. New York Cosmetic, Skin & Laser Surgery Center — East 60th Street
Dr. Cameron Rokhsar is a double board-certified dermatologist with fellowship training in laser surgery, and his practice bio notes his involvement in research on several aesthetic devices, Ulthera among them. Useful if you’re torn between Ultherapy and a laser-based approach and want one specialist to compare the two. The practice also publishes Ultherapy before-and-after cases.
Ultherapy questions we hear most
How long do Ultherapy results last?
The lift builds gradually over two to three months as new collagen forms and can keep improving for up to six. Results typically last a year or longer, and many patients plan a yearly maintenance session.
What’s the difference between Ultherapy and Ultherapy PRIME?
PRIME is the newest generation of the same micro-focused ultrasound technology. It keeps real-time imaging, so the provider sees the tissue layers being treated, now on a larger, sharper screen, and providers report shorter sessions.
Does Ultherapy hurt?
Most people feel warmth and brief, deep pinpricks during treatment. Practices manage comfort in different ways, including nitrous oxide at some offices, so ask what’s available before you book.
Is Ultherapy safe for darker skin tones?
Because the energy passes beneath the skin surface, the manufacturer describes Ultherapy PRIME as suitable for all skin tones. Your provider should still review your medical history before treatment.
