Can you repeat Ultherapy if you don’t see the results you want? If so, how long should you wait between treatments?

Question

If also doing Botox/fillers, should it be done before or after Ultherapy? What length of time between Botox/fillers and ultherapy?

Laurie A. Casas, MD, FACS · Answer

Thank you for your question.  Typically results from Ultherapy appear gradually over two to three months and improvements can continue up to six months after treatment.  You can re-treat someone at six months for improvement of results, but if happy with the results, you can have it done every year to year and a half.  Depending on where your treatment of Ultherapy is would help decide timing of Botox/fillers as well.

Jeffrey B. Wise, MD, FACS · Answer

In our practice we typically see patients for a three month and a six month follow up after having the treatment. Most results are seen by 6 months and the procedure can be performed again at that time. I would consult with an experienced board certified plastic surgeon to see if this is your best option. Best of luck!

Most people need to repeat Ultherapy at least once a year to maintain results. Those with more laxity may need to do a repeat treatment sooner. In these cases, I usually repeat the treatment around 6 months after. I usually do the Botox and Fillers 2 weeks after Ultherapy. Make sure you see an experienced physician for an in-person consultation and evaluation to determine if Ultherapy is the most appropriate treatment for you. Best wishes.

Yes, you can have an additional Ultherapy treatment. However, for non-invasive options like ultherapy, a combination approach would give the improvement. I recommend Ultherapy, J Plasma, Nova Threads, RF treatments, lasers, microneedling/PRP to provide skin tightening and lift. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with an expert to go over the recommended timeline. Best, Dr. Emer

You can repeat Ultherapy, it is advised to wait for up to 6 months as you can continue to get more lift and tightening during that time. Your practitioner will advise if a second treatment is required. I often combine Ultherapy with Botulinum toxin and fillers in order to achieve best results. I usually place toxin in the upper face and sometimes the jawline and neck muscles at the time of the Ultherapy treatment and then commence the fillers about 4 weeks later.
