“Ulthera, Day 2 - Daly City, CA”
Pros- non invasive, good reviews,skin complexity improved after procedure Cons- pain,result may vary I am a 46 year old woman. Done Ulthera yesterday. It was painful, 5/10 level, took iboprofen 800 mg and vicodin. Had redness for about an hour after. It's only day 2, my skin looks smoother and brighter, fine lines on forehead almost disappear. Eye brows lifted about 1/2 cm. My... more
“Ultherapy - Walnut Creek, CA”
I am turning 50 in a couple of months and wanted to have a little lift to my jowl area so I thought Ultherapy would be a good option for me since I don't think I'm ready for a lower face lift yet. My friend had it done and I went with her. She got about 24 shots of lidocane in her face as well as a vicodin and xanax to help with the pain. She got immediate results and was very... more
“Ultherapy- No Visible Results - San...”
Extremely painful, No visible results, not worth it!! The procedure was performed by an assistant, not the doctor. I did not have pain meds or lidocaine for pain as I was told this could lead to bruising. Big mistake! For over an hour, I felt like I was being electrocuted with every jolt. As for the results, I was extremely swollen for days around the eyes- the swelling equivalent to... more
“Very Happy with Results - Mountain...”
I had the perimeter of my face done two weeks ago and am very impressed with the results. Over the past 3 years I have lost 50lb and also hit 50 years so I started getting jowls! My chin and neck has really firmed up and there is a lift to my brow - eyes look more open and jaw line is more defined. I am thrilled with the look because it is very natural. I say I look like I did 10 years ago... more
“Ulthera Today - San Francisco, CA”
I was invited by my trusted dermatologist to be a "model" for the nurses Ulthera training session. Luckily, most of his staff are still too young to be suitable for this procedure. I have a stupid wattle and jawline laxity and was thrilled there may be something out there, other than surgery, that works. I must admit, this sites comments made me so nervous! Was given a... more
“Ulthera with No Pain Meds - San...”
It's been 3 weeks since I had the Ulthera treatment. I think it's too soon to give an accurate review but I want to talk about my experience going through ulthera with no pain killers or nerve blocks. I tend to be average when it comes to pain tolerance and honestly felt like my experience wasn't as bad as I'd anticipated. The doctor told me that I would experience pain and... more
“Had Ulthera Treatment Today -...”
I made an appointment for Ulthera to, mainly, tighten up my jowls and neck. I was very nervous when I went in for the treatment today. However, once we got started, I did not find the pain to be too severe. The temple area and near the lower jaw sent a little jolt through me. Other than that, I would rate the overall pain (on a scale of 1 to 10), to be a 3 to 5, or mild to occasionally... more
