What happens when Ultherapy stops working ? Is it drastic, like it starts falling?

The reason Ultherapy “stops working” is because of the body’s natural aging process; as we age, our skin produces less collagen and begins to sag and wrinkle. No cosmetic treatment is permanent because there is unfortunately no way to stop the body from aging. Ultherapy results last for a long time, but the skin will gradually begin to loosen and sag again. It is not a drastic change that happens all at once.

Ultherapy lifts, tones and tightens the skin by stimulating collagen production. It does not stop the aging process. Over time, your skin's collagen will continue to break down and your skin will slowly start to sag. It does not happen all of a sudden. Some people will get repeat treatments every 1-3 years to continue to stimulate collagen production. Hope this helps answer your question!

Thank you for your question.There are some new devices but they are not time tested like Ultherapy. Nothing happens drastically and overnight and the answer is that "you will age out of the procedure" as time goes on.  Ultherapy is FDA cleared to treat laxity of the skin in the lower face, jowls and neck.Read the Ultherapy ebook on the link below.

Your results will not suddenly go away. The results of Ultherapy go away gradually over time as the collagen begins to break back down. To maintain your results you would need to get maintenance treatments. Depending on how quickly your results fade you may need to get this done every 1 - 3 years for optimal results. Hope this helps.

Hi and thank you for your question. The results of Ultherapy do not suddenly disappear, it is a gradual process. We continue to age and loose collagen, so as this process continues, you will feel the need for maintenance treatments. For some people they may want a second treatment in 1 year, and for others every 2-3 years. It depends on where you started when you had the first treatment, what your expectations/goals are, and how you are currently aging. We customize each treatment for the individual patient, targeting all areas of concern, doing the three different depths and maximize the results by delivering twice the amount of lines as the standard treatment. These advanced techniques are proving to provide our patients with superb results and even starting to see results a few weeks to a month out. Take care,Dr. Grant Stevens

Ultherapy is an extremely safe
treatment that carries little to no real risk when the treatment is performed
by an experienced professional. Ultherapy is,
without question, the best collagen-inducing device for facial rejuvenation. RF
devices, such as Thermal, only heat the tissues up to 50-55 Celsius while a
minimum of 60C is necessary for new collagen growth (Neocollagenesis). Thermal
is, in my opinion, a very poor tool that has limited to no use in facial
aesthetic. There is no
other non-surgical device that does what Ultherapy does, despite their claims
otherwise. Furthermore, Ultherapy has the first, and the only, FDA approval for
non-surgical lifting. We feature Ultherapy as the basis for our Non-Surgical
Face-Lifting program and we have achieved amazing results by combining
Ultherapy with treatments such as toxins, fillers, fractional resurfacing,
modified phenol chemical peeling, stem cell rich fat transfers, micro-needle
radiofrequency treatments (the only useful RF based treatment available today),
and excellent skin care regimen management. The changes after Ultherapy take 90 days to evolve due to neocollagenesis. These changes should last for years.
