Can Ultherapy cause fat loss when getting it done on the cheek area?

February 24, 2015
Asked By:irishgirl24 in Arlington, Virginia

I'm looking into getting ultherapy done on the cheek area to tighten up and lift my midface - basically the area from cheekbones to chin. I'm 38 and skeptical that it will even work, but I'm willing to take the chance as long as there are no negative effects. I have read that ultherapy can cause fat loss, and I definitely would not want to lose any more fat in my cheek area.
