I am 3 weeks out (jowls and neck) and so far, I see nothing -no improvement. Many of the patients write about seeing immediate improvement but I cannot say I noticed any difference.

I am hoping that I will see a firmness when I approach the 2 month date, but I am getting doubtful, thinking that I should see something, even if it's minor. For such a painful procedure, and expensive, I would expect something - or I just wasted another few thousand...I hope not

5 weeks out and still no change...wondering why some patients see such immediate results and I see none. I do no have hanging skin - just slightly loose under my chin, and still, no improvement......

3 months and absolutley NOTHING has changed. ...

3 months and absolutley NOTHING has changed. DON'T DO IT - it's a bunch of hype!

My doctor is a PS who has a great reputation. It's not his expertise that I question, rather the procedure itself. For surgery, he seems well qualified and has many great before and after shots. For Ultherapy, his shots do show women with much better improvement than what I see on my face. Hopefully that will change in the next few weeks.

Can you please comment on who your doctor was? I was thinking of a consult with Dr. Pontell - is this who performed the procedure for you?
