“Skin Tightening After a Facelift -...”
I had Ultherapy a week ago now. I had a facelift 3 years ago and have had some loosening in the cheeks and jaw. I was scared to death to have Ultherapy done after reading all the reviews about the pain. I hate dealing with pain. So I took 1.5 oxycodeine that I had at home from my facelift. I was pleasantly surprised that pain was barely pain. On the jaw the pain was a 3/10 but on the cheeks it... more
“Worth It! - Chestnut Hill, MA”
I looked into non- surgical options as I had noticed a fall in my face and a flattening of my cheek bones and a slackening under the chin ...I did the procedure from the cheeks to the neck ( to test it out ) ($2700) and am so glad I did !

“Amazing Experience - Boston, MA”
I am 46 and I have very good skin. Most people think I am about 35. Two years ago, I went through a very difficult separation/ divorce and experienced a great deal of stress and I actually started noticing some changes in my face.

I want to get the most bang for the buck so I made sure I was getting it full strength on the first... more
I did not want the expense of a face lift or major surgery. Im heard about this procedure and decided to try it. I am so happy with the results!! My double chin is gone and my face is so much tighter. I did the complete face and I feel the bottom half is much more noticeable, people are asking if I have lost weight as my face is thinner. There is some pain as it is being done but when... more
“Brows, Really Painful but Worth It!...”
I had Ulthera for brows/eyes today. First off I recommend having a local as well as pain medication as the brow area is the most sensitive area.It feels like lots of tiny injections of hot wax shooting up to your scalp. I had just a local, and while it helps it is simply not enough for the this area. I have a very high tolerance to pain and this really was painful...not uncomfortable..really... more
