May 2013, had ultherapy from different PS that performed my other surgical procedures.10 years ago had breast aug.along with upper/ lower Bleph's . Problems post op: breast- capsular cont.- went back in to remove scar tissue. Bleph's turned out ok until 2-3 years later had lower eyelid droop, went back for canthroplasty. Question to you, :I am considering facelift now since ultherapy didn't work.

Answer: Considering Facelift After Failed Ultherapy? If your only concern was that Ultherapy was not effective, then I would recommend further discussion with your Plastic Surgeon. However, given your concerns with multiple procedures performed previously you would probably benefit from a second (or third) opinion if only for reassurance. In my experience, people who will benefit from a facelift do not get similar improvement with Ulthera. It does provide improvement but not to the degree that people are seeking and at a high price point to boot. I hope this information is helpful.Stephen Weber MD, FACSLone Tree Facial Plastic Surgeon

Answer: Facelift After Ultherapy Ultherapy is a non-invasive procedure which attempts to tighen the neck and SMAS area. The procedure is not a substitue for a facelift. There is no contraindication to having a facelift performed after Ulthera.
