Could ULTHERAPY Follow-up Maintenance Visits Cost About $1,000 Every Year?

Ultherapy uses focal ultrasound to help the facial skin tighten and lift. Full effect may take six or more months for some people to realize. Usually the results I see do not vanish at 1 year but persist. that doesn't preclude performing a second treatmetn at a year should someone wish further benefit. Should a facelift or a different non surgical technique be considered in the future, the previous use of Ultherapy would not have caused a problem.

While the effects of Ultherapy seem to last about a year, it more like setting the aging clock back. Given the pace of technological improvements, it is not likely that there will ever be a single technology that isn't eventually replaced with something new. However, focused ultrasound like Ulthera and Liposonix is a fairly new technology and seems likely to be around for a while.

Thank you for your question. Ultherapy is an excellent option for skin tightening and rejuvenation, and does generally last for a year's time. Even if Ultherapy were to fall out of demand, it is likely that a new treatment would be introduced that you could benefit from. Therefore, this should not discourage you from receiving the treatment in the first place, as I have seen excellent results at my practice.
