This was my second time having Ultherapy done. The first was wonderful. It was painful, and experienced very little swelling. At six month I could completely see a more lifted and sculpted face. This second felt like torture. Both procedures I used gas for the pain. But after the second procedure, the swelling was unbelievable. I am over three months post Ultherapy and where I was swollen still looks terrible. I look older and the jawlines area is not tight but almost drippy still.
Last week I did ultherapy, i went home with redness swollen all over my neck, after 4 days the swollen start to disappear but left with the raised bump and track mark. The track mark is standing out and forming a line on the skin. Will it disappear by itself? What is inside the bump? My doctor gave a topical cream and claritin... is there anything that i can do to heal it faster?
I have significant swelling under my chin 4 days post Ultherapy. i also have numbness in this area. How long does the edema(swelling) typically last post procedure? I am told there is very little recovery time but there obviously is recovery time involved due to the swelling under my chin. I did not receive lidocaine injections prior to procedure.
After my restylane tear trough injections 5 weeks ago, the left eye showed significant bruising and swelling. Around week 3 this healed and swelling receded considerably. Thinking the timing was safe, I got Ultherapy 3 days ago above brows and crows feet and under eyes. The bruising and swelling came back instantly, with more swelling than before. Have been icing, and using arnica. Please help! The pics are from yesterday, and swelling is a little worse today.
It's been 3 weeks after ultherapy. The swelling is going down but not completely. My main concern is the bruising on my gums! I thought it was only skin deep, so why are my gums affected?! Also, my nose looks like it shrunk. The tip looks and feels shorter. Is this normal? Could it have actually shrunk? Or is it swelling or something else. I'm having so many wierd side effects and I'm so worried! Can anyone explain all this? Should I be worried?
3 wks ago I had full face ulthera & botox in forehead,between eyebrows & at 'crows feet' for the first time - face settled down within 24hrs and looked no different than before treatment.however,on day five I developed eyebags & swelling to upper eyelids ( the skin between my eyebrow and top of eyelid has folded down and covered my eyelids ) now look far worse than before treatment - getting worried swelling is permanent- is it normal to have swollen eyes after these procedures? - Many thanks
I had ultherapy on lower face and neck yesterday. In the evening I noticed swelling and used ice packs. I went to the gym this morning as usual and had a tough workout (about 18 hours post procedure). Tonight the swelling is the same or worse and bruises are appearing. I have now read strenuous exercise is contraindicated if there is swelling. I am also experiencing numbness. Have I doomed myself to extended swelling thanks to the exercise? Does it matter if I continue to exercise strenuously now?
I had ultherapy done about 6 weeks ago. The doctor did half of my face and then told the nurse to take over. The half the nurse did swelled massively the next day and red welts appeared which stubbornly refused to go away. I got acne bumps on the welts as well so the doctor prescribed me Isotretinoin 10mg for 1 mth and it finally dried up but now I have a depressed scar that extends from the side of my nose to the lip where the skin is thin. Will this go away? Can nurse perform ultherapy?
