Ulthera has not been proven to negatively affect the Botox, but it is wise to await two weeks, for the botox to have full effect before having the Ulthera so that if there is a question about the aesthetic outcome of the Botox, you won't think it's the Ultherapy. Botox is also very safe to be administered right after the Ultherapy.
It is ok to have an Ultherapy treatment two weeks after having Botox injections. In fact, you can actually get both Botox and Ultherapy treatments on the same day. Botox settles in very quickly, so waiting the two weeks is perfectly safe.
Two weeks after BOTOX treatment should be a safe time frame for an Ultherapy treatment. I too typically tell patients to wait approximately two week after any filler or BOTOX treatment for an Ultherapy treatment.
Ultherapy can be performed 2 weeks after Botox. I don't see a contraindication there. Some argue that within a week, the Botox may 'spread' more given the inflammatory state, prompting them to recommend this strategy of waiting 2 weeks. Read the Ultherapy book provided on the link below under 'ebooks'.
I agree with the other physicians that 2 weeks is an ideal amount of time to wait until Ulthera is performed after Botox injections. There should not be any adverse effects with that wait time and the full effect of the Botox should have occurred by then. These procedures are very compatible (as are filler injections) with Ulthera and will give an overall better result.
Two weeks is a perfect time frame. I always tell my patients to wait a full two weeks to assess the effects of Botox. Although you could probably do any procedure sooner, when you wait you won't have to second guess your decision if you are not pleased with your Botox results or need a touch up.
Two weeks is plenty of time for a safety margin. Botox is almost completely bound to its site of action by 1 hour after injection. I usually recommend to patients not to touch the area, lie down or exercise for 3-4 hours after Botox injections. It's true that when we are considering two procedures, I do like having two weeks between the procedures if the Botox injections are done first. By two weeks we see the full results of the Botox injections.
Within 20 to 90 minutes after it is injected, botulinum neurotoxin type A can be detected inside the motor nerve endings. Therefore the muscles and nerve endings take up the Botox or Dysport very quickly before they can spread far from the injection site. There are no restrictions after this for any treatments, including Ulthera.
I Just Had Botox and I Want to Do Ulthera in Two Weeks, is This Ok. Should be fine to undergo the Ulthera treatment after the Botox injections. I just wouldn't do it the same day but 2 weeks after is plently of time, IMO.
All the RF devices which try to transmit their energy through the skin are unreliable with very inconsistent or no results. These include: Thermage, Refirme, Accent XL, Pelleve, Venus Freeze, Exilis. The only one worth using from the RF family, at the present time, is the Infini by Lutronic. ...
Ultherapy is FOCUSED ultrasound energy delivery and not like the 200 dollar devices used in physiotherapy that send ultrasound waves into tissue where it is attenuated, reflected or absorbed haphazardly. Focused high intensity ultrasound uses high frequency ultrasound waves that are absorbed...
The skin temperature on the surface does not increase much. You won't discern such increases by touching the skin and you won't feel it. It is NOT like radiofrequency treatments. RF energy turns off after impedence measurements reach a certain value, indicating that the temperature has...
