Hi, Kshine! I had Ultherapy from the same doctor as you. I actually quite liked the technician who performed my treatment. But I don't feel that the results in any way justified the price that I paid for the treatment. I think that if the treatments were more affordable, a series of three would probably actually show results.
A side note: the doctor was incredibly offensive and rude. I went in for a consult regarding options for Rosacea. I and ended up like that girl on Nip/Tuck with the lines all around her for what she needed to fix. I am late 30's with quite good skin despite the rosacea, but I ended up getting the Ulthera treatment based on the incredibly insulting consult I had with the doctor (which made me self-conscious about my appearance in a way I had never been before). : ( And then I saw no results. Overall, my experience with Dr. Key was horrible.
Thanks so much for posting about your experience, PhillyRockz! I have been eyeing this device on Amazon.com, wondering if it is effective or just another gadget. I am happy it has worked so well for you.
Hey, I am way late to this thread, but I wondered if you had checked into the possibility of salivary stones? I have had them myself since I was a kid.
Salivary stones are similar to kidney stones -- small, calcified little stones build up in your gland and eventually can move in and block the salivary duct, requiring a bit of surgery to remove if they don't work themselves out naturally. It might be worth a check with an Otolaryngologist to see if this could be an issue for you? : )
Best of luck, and I hope you are happy with your neck lift results.
