Q Lift Non Surgical Facelift
Our ultimate Skin-tightening combination treatment
Ultherapy + Morpheus8
The holy grail of structural volume replenishment and lifting, tightening and redefining of the lower face. This is a signature protocol designed by Dr Quinn that strategically combines the depth and structure of Ultherapy with the resurfacing and sculpting benefits of Morpheus8 — targeting all layers of the skin for a truly 360° approach to rejuvenation. Guided by Ultrasound, we tailor a powerful, non-surgical facelifting treatment specific to your individual anatomy, skin quality, and treatment goals. This is a bespoke treatment, and we are proud to be the only clinic in Bristol offering both of these gold standard technologies as a combined protocol.
To enhance your results, the Q-Lift protocol includes three additional skin rejuvenation treatments, bespoke to your skin.
What is the Ultherapy & Morpheus8 Combination?
The Q Lift
Our signature protocol is an advanced dual-modality treatment that combines Ultherapy and Morpheus8 to deliver powerful, layered rejuvenation. This is designed for patients seeking long-lasting, non-surgical lifting and contouring with minimal downtime.
The Science
Ultherapy uses focused ultrasound energy to precisely stimulate collagen within the deep structural layers of the face, including the SMAS. By targeting this foundational layer, it creates a gradual lifting and tightening effect,
improving firmness and restoring definition over time.
Morpheus8 uses fractional radiofrequency microneedling
to remodel both the dermal and subdermal layers. It improves skin texture, refines pores, softens fine lines and acne
scarring, while also enabling precise disruption of subdermal fat to contour and sculpt the treated areas.
BESPOKE gold-standard non-surgical facelifts
This advanced combination treatment has been created by Dr Quinn for patients seeking the following non-surgical results:
- Skin tightening and lifting
- Facial contouring and volume reduction
- Improved skin texture and quality

How Ultherapy works
Deep Structural lifting
Ultherapy is an FDA-approved treatment that
uses microfocused ultrasound with real-time imaging to precisely target the deeper layers of the skin, including the
SMAS layer. This is the same foundational layer addressed in surgical facelifts.
What makes Ultherapy unique is its ability to visualise the skin from the surface down to deeper structural layers before and during treatment. Rather than applying energy blindly like standard HIFU treatments, we can adjust the depth continuously throughout the treatment, allowing us to:
- Map your individual tissue structure in real time, identify the exact depth of key layers, including the dermis, subdermal tissue, and SMAS
- Avoid areas where energy should not be delivered, ensuring safety and precision
- Customise the treatment to different areas of the face, depending on your ageing pattern
- Combine multiple depths strategically for optimal lifting
Why Depth Matters
Each depth targets a different layer and produces a different effect
- 1.5mm (superficial dermis): improves fine lines
and skin quality - 3.0mm (deep dermis): stimulates collagen for firmness and elasticity
- 4.5mm (SMAS layer): creates
lifting and tightening by targeting structural support
This level of precision allows us to achieve natural, balanced results rather than a one-size-fits-all outcome, which is why Ultherapy is such an effective and powerful treatment when used in the right hands.

What is Morpheus8?
Contouring & Skin Remodelling
Morpheus8 is an advanced treatment that combines microneedling with radiofrequency (RF) energy to remodel the skin and underlying tissue at multiple depths.
Unlike traditional skin treatments that work only on the surface, Morpheus8 allows us to treat both the skin and the underlying structures, making it highly effective for tightening, contouring, and improving overall skin quality.
How Morpheus8 Works
The treatment uses a matrix of very fine needles that gently penetrate the skin, delivering controlled radiofrequency energy into different layers of the skin.
This energy creates a precise thermal effect, which stimulates the body’s natural healing response, resulting in the following benefits:
- An increase in collagen and elastin production to strengthen and firm the skin
- Remodelling of deeper tissue layers to improve structure and support.
- Volume reduction on specific areas, Targets subdermal fat, allowing us to reduce volume in specific areas
areas
Because we can adjust both depth and intensity, the treatment can be fully customised based on the area being treated and the result we want to achieve.
What Makes Morpheus8 Different
Morpheus8 is not just a skin treatment; it’s a multi-layered remodelling technology. At Quinn Clinics, we use it strategically to:
- Refine and sculpt the lower
face by reducing heaviness - Tighten loose or lax skin
- Improve skin texture and tone
- Enhance overall skin quality
This ability to both tighten and reduce volume is what makes it particularly powerful when used as part of a bespoke treatment plan.
What Can Morpheus8 Treat?
Morpheus8 is especially effective for areas where both skin laxity and excess
volume is present, including:
- Lower face heaviness
- Jowls and jawline definition
- Mild to moderate skin laxity
- Uneven skin texture and enlarged pores
- Early signs of ageing

Complementary skin rejuvenation package alongside the Q Lift
To enhance your results, every treatment plan includes three additional skin rejuvenation treatments, bespoke to you and chosen for your skin:
IPL
- Reduces redness and rosacea
- Improves pigmentation and sun damage
- Even skin tone
LaseMD
- Improves skin texture and clarity
- Targets fine lines
- Enhances overall skin quality
This ensures a comprehensive skin-regeneration approach that treats both structure and surface.
Dr Quinn says…
In my 20 years of medical practice, I’ve found that the most transformative results don’t come from a single ‘miracle’ device, but from the strategic layering of technologies. Our Signature Treatments are the culmination of that experience—bespoke protocols that combine gold-standard lasers, ultrasound, and regenerative therapies to target every layer of the skin. By treating the skin as a complex ecosystem rather than a single surface, we can achieve a refreshed, natural look that reflects the best version of you.”
