Should I dissolve fillers before Ulthera?

December 30, 2010
Asked By:ScottA in Beverly Hills, California

Because of some uneven facial liposuction, I was left with uneven contours in the mid/lower face and along the jawline. In an attempt to correct this, I have had fillers (Juv & Restylane) placed in the hollow areas to even everything out. Not wanting a lift, but feeling it would help more than fillers, I am ready to try Ulthera but was wondering whether or not I should have the fillers dissolved first with Hyl Acid? I am concerned the fillers would prevent maximum tightening results from Ulther.
