Enclosed are 3 month photos. Almost want to write a disclaimer saying viewer discretion advised as pictures are graphic (hey, you can see every pore). But if people find these helpful that's all that matters.So hope you find these helpful, gypsygirl.

It has been 1 month since I had ultheraphy to my neck and I feel encouraged that it is helping. I am posting pictures so others can decide for themselves. Three years ago the doctor took away my hormones and I went through documented bone loss. What a difference it made in my appearance. Seems evrything drooped and caved in. Was hoping for a necklift but being a poor candidate for surgery because of heart condtion, I looked for alternatives. Although my age, 64 years doesn't make me the best candidate for this procedure,I figured it was worth a shot.

Your neck looks great. Sorry about the lasting pain though. Have been thinking about this procedure, but kinda scared of pain, possible nerve damage, and cost. Congratualtions on your awesome results!

Thanks for the response. My husband,who took these pictures, thought there was an improvement also. Since results aren't supposed to show up until 3-6 months i am definitely encouraged. The cost is really much less than a full-face $800 versus $3000, so it certainly seems worth doing. Tenderness is getting better every week and no numbness so I'm not too worried about that. Thanks again.

Your neck looks MUCH improved. --- Ibuprofen might have increased your inability to heal (bleeding)?

Nice to hear others can see a difference at one month. When I look in the mirror I think my jaws are definitely reduced and my jaw line better, but unfortunately I didn't think to take pictures of a front view for comparison.
The bruising I had was more a yellow discoloration rather than black and blue.
and that resolved in 2 weeks. The tenderness I still feel is along my jawbone.That might be related to my osteoporosis. Don't know.. Either way it is only tender when I touch it, is improving weekly and I like to think it means my jawline is still changing and tightening. My pain has always been mostly along the bony areas so maybe pressure on the bones or the lazer waves hitting the bones.Can't say for sure. Thanks for the comments.

The front view may just be a bit smoother but with jowl (since you still have one, due to no necklift), but the side view really does look more contained, controlled, less weak-jowl. It is a jowl, but a flattering one. Know what I mean? There are simple jowls and then there are ugly ones. You now have a simple, smooth one. Very flattering and natural, as part of human looks -- it's not jowl-less, but it's a pleasant one.

It looks great. It's not a jowl-less look; it's a nice neck look. The two are not incompatible.

Thanks. I'm pleased with what I'm seeing in the mirror. But it helps to just want to see an improvement and not expect miracles.
April 5, 2013
Thanks again but not exactly a miracle. I had to be pretty persistent to find the treatment I wanted. Not all dermatologists do ultheraphy and most want to do both the face and neck. I only wanted my neck done not only because of the cost but also because I am perfectly happy with my eyebrows where they are.Two consults and four calls to doctor's offices got me what I actually wanted done.
April 5, 2013
Wow, that really made a big difference and your skin looks so much better too.
April 5, 2013
Thanks. It's hard for me to see my profile with a little hand mirror,but it looks different from a front view and It feels like I actually have a jawline when I feel it. Would definitely suggest people try it.
April 5, 2013
You show a jawline now. It's with fatty bits, which is normal, but it's smooth and looks good.
April 5, 2013
I hesitated to post photos because my turkey neck looked so bad compared to the 63 year old from Orange County,but my husband said it was helping so I thought, "why not". Maybe if your jawline is not so good to begin with it does more.i I'm trying not to think about it too much until the 3 month mark,so thanks to all who say it looks better and hope you won't be offended if I don't respond anymore at this time as don't want to obsess about it. Thanks again
