- 23 Mar 2011
I had an Ulthera treatment after speaking to several friends who had it done and looked better to me. I had tried Thermage in the past and didn't notice any difference so I was skeptical.
I did find the treatment painful but every treatment I do seems to hurt so I guess I was prepared for that. I immediately noticed a difference during the treatment but was excited to see what would happen as I was told it would continue to improve. I only treated one of my brows because one was lower than the other to begin with. 2 months later and my brows now look even and my jawline is much improved. I also feel like my skin looks better overall- I've had several people ask me about what I am doing so it must not just be me!

After many weeks of back and forth, I decided to go for it and had the Ultherapy procedure...
I'm very hopeful that I will experience some of what the 75% have on this site. I'm going...
I had Ultherapy of the lower face and neck done this past Friday, 5/10/2013. As I write...
Nearly one year on, do you think the results have lasted?
Our patients are seeing very good results with Ultherapy! Be well.

thanks!
Though Ulthera usually works best in 35 to 55 year olds, we have seen excellent results in patients in their 70's. There is not an age limit.
Good luck and be well.

I don't have my pictures...my doctor has them and I don't want to share on this public site. I should probably go back to see if there are more changes but I do get complements all the time about my face-I did it about 4 months ago. I think the problem with some of these reports is you write in as soon as you do the treatment because it is fresh in your mind...my doctor made it very clear that it takes some time for you to really see what will happen. I also spoke with my friend's husband about it before I did it who is a doctor (doesn't do Ulthera) but explained the whole process and how these types of lasers take effect later...
I hope that helps- I'm still happy
thx!

I researched Ulthera for about 4 months before I had it done. A close friend had it done in NY and was very very happy with her treatment and thus, kept encouraging me to do it. The only pain I had was during the treatment and it was uncomfortable...mind you, I chose not to take any medications that were offered to me because I didn't want to feel groggy or drugged. It hurt more on my forehead and right next to my ears. It didn't hurt afterward. I've had other laser treatments where I felt a burning sensation for a couple of hours after...I didn't have that. I felt sore in some areas...mostly along my jawbone...but it wasn't painful. I'm not comfortable putting up my pictures- but I am very very happy. I don't ever want to have a facelift but I am 48 and I needed to do something to improve my skin which is starting to sag a little bit. I definitely encourage others who are looking into to do it-
Thanks Wing,
This extra info is useful for the community. Glad it all worked out.

Hi Wing,
Welcome to the Ulthera community. I'm glad it evened out your eyebrow and your jawline. How long had you been thinking about having this done? Did you have any pain or downtime? The community would love to see pictures.
Thanks so much for the review,
