Assuming you are having Ultherapy in the FDA approved areas of the face, neck and chest. It is a safe procedure to have after having a knee replacement. I would have a thorough consultation with a certified office to discuss if this is the right treatment option for you.Best of luck!
Yes, you can have ultherapy if you've had a knee replacement. Keep in mind, a combination approach would give the most improvement. I recommend Ultherapy with RF treatments, lasers, microneedling/PRP or sculptra to get increased collagen, tightening and improve skin tone. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with an expert.

There are no contraindications in having Ultherapy performed on the face, chest, or other indicated areas anatomically separated from the knee replacement surgical site. The major issue for you will be whether Ultherapy is a good match for the indications that you have.
