Does Anyone Forsee Any Long Term Possible Side Effects from Ulthera? Since It is So New.

October 29, 2011
Asked By:FlipFlop in Gulfport, MS

I am wondering if anyone thinks Ulthera Treatment could have any long term side effects years from now ? Could heating the skin from underneath ever result in Hyperpigmentation or little bumbs arising and showing up years later ? What about permanent nerve damage. I just wanted to get some Dr's thoughts on what could be possible permanent side effects since the technolgy is so new.
