Once the maximum results have been achieved a few months after an Ultherapy treatment, the aging process continues and collagen levels will eventually start to decrease again. How often patients go back for Ultherapy treatments to maintain their results depends on each individual and on factors...
Ultherapy technically can not be performed directly under the eyes, because the handpiece is not perfectly designed for eye area skin. I recommend Thermage for tightening and lifting the eyelid, the depth and size of the eye tip is perfectly designed for the eye.
