Thank you for your question and I appreciate your concern. Ultherapy is a skin tightening treatment that delivers ultrasound energy deep into the dermis and connective tissue, where it triggers the body to produce more collagen. As collagen levels increase, the skin becomes smoother and firmer. It also causes existing collagen bundles to shrink and remodel for tighter skin. Ultrasound imaging is also used to guide the delivery of the energy into the precise locations where it will have the most positive effect. When this procedure is performed by an experienced, board-certified dermatologist, the procedure is very safe and is not known to melt fat or cause nerve damage. Cases of fat loss or nerve injury could potentially occur if the provider is unaware of the anatomy or proper technique. Make sure your provider is qualified and has expertise in Ultherapy and you should see a good result with minimal side effects.
