I've had my buccal fat pads removed but still have very full lower cheeks that refuse to lose any weight. Will Ultherapy tighten my skin enough to pull back my chubby lower cheeks?

Answer: Ultherapy for chubby cheeks It's difficult to make an assessment without photos, or better yet an examination. It is possible that the lift you would get from the treatment may be enough to correct your concerns. An in person consultation would be ideal. Best of luck.

Answer: Ultherapy for chubby cheeks In my office I have found that Ultherapy does not give consistent good results on 'chubby cheeks'. Not having a photo to share I can't be specific in your case. The two clinical changes that we feel are a contraindication for Ultherapy treatments to the lower face and neck are heavy, 'chubby' cheeks and jowls and patients who have lost the ability to make healthy collagen. Collagen production starts diminishing after age 25 and is very slow in many people over the age of 60-65. This is important to know and understand as the tightening effect shown with Ultherapy is due to collagen denaturing and replacement and the ability for newer tighter collagen to be able to lift the treated areas. If you are not making good collagen and if you have particularly heavy cheeks, the outcomes are usually less than ideal.
