Rep from ultherapy company gave presentation in drs office said how much better it was because it could get to depths 3mm and 4.5mm that lasers can't go. Showed before and after pics that look great. Price sheet is handed out for all the different areas. When I get home I see it says shallow depth(1.5) in a full face and neck tx. Is 1.5 even going to do anything or should I go to someone else. This seems very misleading unless I am missing something

Answer: Ulthearpy depth Ultherapy is done at different depths depending on the area of the face being treated. While the procedure is performed, a screen shows the doctor of nurse where the waves of energy are going under the skin. The 4.5mm depth can be used on the cheek or jowl for example, but the 1.5mm is used on the lower lids and for the lip lines. The 1.5mm can also be used for finer lines on the face.

Answer: Ultherapy Depths of Treatment Hi Ethome. Dr. Burgess has given a good explanation below on the different depths of treatment for Ultherapy. The 1.5mm treatment level is used for individuals who have fine lines or crepy skin that needs superficial tightening. In our practice we rarely use this treatment level alone, unless it is just for underneath the eyes or around the mouth. If you have any doubts about the information you received you should contact the doctor's office. Maybe they gave you the wrong handout? If there is still doubt you can always get a second opinion from an experienced Ultherapy physician. Best of luck to you.
