I'm so sorry you had a painful experience with the Ultherapy. I had the procedure done on the 23rd and while it was uncomfortable at times, I did not find it overwhelmingly painful. I took a Xanax and Loratab one hour before the procedure and it must have worked because I was relaxed and not in pain. I also had Fraxel laser done to my face later that day, so my swelling was a result of that mostly. I know it will be at least 4-6 weeks before we start seeing results but I can't wait!! Hope you get the results you are hoping for!!
About an hour!! I must be a pretty tough cookie because neither procedure was excruciatingly painful for me. Both were uncomfortable at times, but not anything I couldn't deep breathe through. This is day 3 for me and my face definitely has the "coffee grounds" feel and look from the Fraxel. I should start shedding tomorrow. I can't wait to see my results in another few days. I know I won't see results from the Ultherapy for a couple months, but between the two procedures, the aesthetician assured me I am going to be very, very happy. :)
