Ulthera for Crows Feet?

I have crows feet and slight lax skin that botox does not correct. I want a laser or peel to improve the eye area. Is Ulthera effective for crows feet and lax skin/crinkling around the eye? How long do the effects last? I understand the aging process will continue, but how long does the procedure effects continue? I tried super expensive CO2 lasers and that does not work on wrinkles only pigmentation.

Ulthera for Crows Feet

Ulthera can be a great treatment for crows feet! The New Ultherapy 1.5mm transducer is made for wrinkled or lax skin around the eyes. Traditional Ulthera can be used for a brow lift as well. The results from an Ulthera treatment can vary from patient to patient, but in general, you can expect to see the results last for about a year or so. I also often recommend Botox and/or filler treatments in combination with Ulthera to get optimal anti aging results.

Ultherapy for Crow's feet

With the new 1.5 mm transducer, we are now able to address superficial wrinkles and crinkly skin around the eye and mouth for example. It works because the focused ultrasound energy penetrates superficially. I think combining this with Botox is a good way to approach smoothing out the crow's feet area.

Ultherapy for Crows feet

Traditional Ulthera treatment is effective for brow lift and face and neck skin tightening by reversing skin and muscle laxity. New Ultherapy 1.5mm transducer is efficacious for skin laxity and lines for areas around the eyes and mouth and can be synergistic with judicious placement of Botox injection.

Crows Feet - noninvasive treatment

Here are three good ways to treat crows feet: 1) Botox/Dysport - works well to prevent the deepening of the crows feet when you smile. 2) Ulthera - helps to create collagen and tighten the area. Results will depend on how much laxity you have to start with. 3) Fillers - Restylane / Juvederm are great ways to add some volume in the crows feet. This will help fill up some of the laxity in the crows feet. Hope these ideas help.

Ultherapy for crows feet

Ultherapy helps smooth crows feet - it tightens the deeper layers of the skin and results in collagen formation. The result can be dramatic, but it depends on what your starting point is. I recommend that you obtain a consultation.
