Hi I'm 48 yr old. For skin tightening and lifting, is it ok to alternate thermage and ultherapy at 6 months interval each? Or example Thermage June Ultherapy Dec and Refirme in between for maintenance or is it overdoing already? Thanks.

Answer: Thermage and Ultherapy Hello and thank you for your question. Both Thermage and Ultherapy are effective treatments to stimulate collagen growth at lower levels of the skin. I often recommend alternating these two treatments because they treat different levels of the skin. This combination treatment approach can lead to very impressive results. Select a board-certified facial plastic surgeon who has extensive experience with Thermage and Ultherapy. Ask to see before-and-after photos of their results. With Thermage, Ultherapy and a qualified board-certified facial plastic surgeon, you should be able to obtain the results you want. Good luck! - Jacqueline T. Cheng

Answer: Thermage and Ultherapy Hello and thank you for your question. It is safe to have both Thermage and Ultherapy treatments in an alternative fashion, and this combination of treatment types can give you terrific results. Schedule an in-person consultation with a board-certified facial plastic surgeon who has ample experience performing both skin-tightening treatments. Thermage and Ultherapy treat different levels of the skin, and a combination approach may be the best treatment plan for you depending on your current skin condition and your aesthetic goals.
