Is Ultherapy right for a 30 year old with chubby cheeks?

Thanks for your question.Yes, Ultherapy could be used in this area to help tighten up the
skin.However since you have already had
surgery in this area, the results from Ultherapy will be subtle in comparison
to surgery.I would actually recommend
the possibility of a mini-facelift in this area to get more optimal
results.My suggestion is to schedule a
consultation with a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon who can give you some good
options.

Thanks for your question.You
may get some significant skin tightening with Ultherapy, but it may not be as
much as what you are expecting given the fact that you’ve already had surgery
to correct the area.Most likely, some
sort of mini facelift would probably give you better results.Ultherapy is a good modality and results are
significant, but they are much more subtle than what you can expect with
surgery.I would suggest a consultation
with a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon to see what the best course of action
would be.I hope this is helpful.Best of luck!

There are sometimes multiple reasons for someone to have chubby cheeks.  It may be an inherited condition and facial liposuction may help. If it is sagging that lowered mid face fat into the lower cheek compartment than a face lift may help. ThermiTight and Ultherapy may help raise a chubby cheek but a patient has to be evaluated in person to determine if they are an appropriate candidate. In addition, some patients, especially those who chronically grind their teeth may have overworked their cheek muscles and this can be improved by seeing both a dentist and having a dermatologist or other specialist, inject Botox into these muscles.See a board certified physician who deals extensively with this condition and who does many different procedures so they know what's best for you.The information provided in Dr. Shelton's
