Can ulthera be used for my under eye wrinkles? How many treatments needed? If not, what will work? (Photo)

Question

I have Been bothered FOR the past copule of years by the wrinkles under my eyes specially my left eye. It is getting worse. Significantly more than my right eye. I am 26. You can't really see it in the picture but left eye is bad. If ulthera can't be used what will work?

Babak Azizzadeh, MD, FACS · Answer

Yes, Ulthera can be used for wrinkles and fine lines under the eyes.  There is a transducer that can help superficial wrinkles around the eyes and the lips. It targets 1.5 mm under the skin's surface. It takes approximately 3-6 months to see results from Ulthera treatments.

John J. Martin, Jr., MD · Answer

You have some small lines directly under the lashes.  This would be a tough area to treat with ulthera as the handpiece will not fit easily into this space.  We have used it lower on the lid and cheek, but it would not be the first choice for these lines.  You might want to consider fractionated CO2 or erbium if these lines really bother you.  A little filler might help too.

Michael A. Zadeh, MD, FACS · Answer

Yes, Ultherapy can be used to treat the wrinkles under the eye. In combination with fillers this can help improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles underneath the eye. You should consult with a physician who is experienced in treating this area and can help you decide what the best treatment is for you. Hope this helps!

Yes
Ulthera can be used to treat the under eye area. I would recommend a
consultation with an experienced board certified cosmetic dermatologist or
plastic surgeon to talk about the specifics of what bothers you and what
treatments are available to help.

The newest addition for Ultherapy is the Ultherapy 1.5 mm transducer for undereye wrinkles and crow's feet - I have done many and they are very successful as patients have high satisfaction rates. Read the Ultherapy book on the link below:

Ultherapy is a noninvasive skin-tightening procedure that can be used to treat various areas of the body, including beneath the eyes. Just to be absolutely sure that Ultherapy would be right for you, I suggest scheduling an appointment with your doctor. A one-on-one, in-person appointment can allow your doctor to make a better judgment than one made from seeing a single photograph. Good luck.

Hi,Yes, you can do Ultherapy safely around the eyes with the superficial 1.5mm transducer.  It works well on both upper and lower eyelid skin.  It is important during the treatment not to treat over the eyeball itself.Warmly,Dr. liu
