Does Ultherapy help with with chest wrinkles? Fine wrinkles between my breasts caused from side sleeping and sun damage.

Fractional laser is an amazing and highly effective treatment in our office. We use the laser treatment to help with acne scars, large pores, fine wrinkles, tissue collagen loss, scars, sebaceous hyperplasia, active acne, and for brightening dark pigmentation. Although there are very strong fractional lasers such as CO2 laser, we use lighter treatments for corrective skincare and maintenance of results. Our Thulium fractional laser, clear and brilliant laser, and Ultra Thulium laser are excellent options in our clinic. We also perform CO2 fractional and erbium depending on skin tone and tolerance for downtime. Patients do have to use a Melarase cream before and after treatment to help further reduce pigmentation after laser. Melarase AM, Melarase PM, and Melapads can seriously improve surface sun damage and UV related pigmentation. Dark spots can improve with these treatments. I recommend fractional laser for incisional scars as well, especially after plastic surgery.

Thank you for your question.  Ultherapy is a FDA cleared non-invasive facelift procedure to rejuvenate and tighten skin on the face, forehead and neck. Ultherapy treatments improve wrinkles on the face, neck and décolletage with no downtime. Ultherapy works by administering ultrasound energy to specific depths of skin and muscle with precise ultrasound guidance, which causes tissue tightening and collagen production.  IPL is a laser that can deliver energy to targeted pigment spots (sun damage) to destroy them. Ultherapy combined with laser can help reduce fine wrinkles and sun damage.

Ultherapy does a great job of re-texturing damaged skin on the face, chest and elsewhere, and even providing a lift. It can be combined with microneedling, chemical peels, and IPL, depending on your needs. Be sure to consult a board-certified dermatologist who can evaluate your skin and prescribe the best treatment(s).
