Is 29 Too Young for Ulthera?

Ulthera uses micro-focused ultrasound energy for noninvasively lifting facial skin, and in general the younger the patient the better the response. However, too young and the benefits don't justify the cost since there isn't much in the way of sagging to correct. We haven't done any patients in their 20's for this reason, but everyone's circumstance is different which is why any treatment plan is based on individual analysis and goals.

Ultherapy may provide benefits for younger patients that are looking to improve their facial appearance by sculpting their facial contours.  Ulthera works by focused ultrasound technology that has the ability to target underlying fat cells and provides not only skin tightening but can also change facial contour in the hands of a qualified professional.  I have treated several younger patients in their late 20's, as well as older patients, with the specific goal of sculpting and re-contouring the underlying facial fat. Although Ulthera was designed for skin lifting and tightening, recent clinical applications have resulted in very nice improvement for facial contouring without surgery as well.  There are several physicians in North America that I know of who are using Ulthera for facial sculpting with very gratifying results.  We've used Ultherapy  to improve neck and jawline contours in younger patients  and as expected the skin responds extremely well to this treatment.
