How can one tell if they were trated with a REAL Ultherapy machine?

Ultherapy is FDA approved. I would suggest you always go to a surgeon that you trust. Ask the office if it was indeed Ultherapy. Best, Dr. Karamanoukian Los Angeles

The Ulthera machine does allow the technician to print out the exact treatment that was performed and how many lines were administered to each area. It is important that a board certified plastic surgeon or their properly trained staff is performing this treatment. Usually these salon and/or spas do not provide this level of expertise. Hope this helps, good luck!

There are probably fake machines of all sorts being used.  Do you think the dry eye and retinal detachment came about because of the ulthera?  No way would it cause a dry eye, fake or not.  And to cause any damage to your retina, they would have to be doing the treatment on your eye.  Can't imagine that anyone would do that with either a real or face ultrasound.  

The spa may be using another type of machine but call it ultherapy.There is only one real Ultherapy.Go to their website and see a photo of the machine and compare it with yours.  also check that your machine has the ulthera label/logo on it.....  Not sure how you would get dry eyes or a detached retina unless a poorly trained ultherapy technician treated you.  after all - ultherapy is a user dependant tool, like a hammer can build nice piece of furniture or kill some one.... in the right or wrong hands.Hope this helps!

Thank you for your question.Call the company and see if they sell them transducers for the Ultherapy device and relay your concerns to Ulthera and Merz Aesthetics.Read my ebook about Ultherapy on the link below.Dr Karamanoukin
