Thank you for your question. Ultherapy is an innovative, FDA-cleared ultrasound treatment to help reverse the effects of the aging face. This ultrasound treatment uses the body's own regenerative response to encourage your body to make collagen, which you bank. Results may last up to a year to 2 years depending on the patient. For most of our patients, they will reconsider repeating the treatment after 2 years.
Because Ultherapy causes a structural response in the collagen layer under the skin, it is more like setting back the clock than a temporary effect. How long the visible results last depend on each individual's response which in turn depends on the age of the patient and other factors.
I have treated patients who had Ultherapy done outside of the United States > 5 years ago. So, I can say that the results, based on what I have seen, can last at least 5 years.Remember, that you age as well and it does not mean that the procedure failed, but rather that you aged out of it as well.

In most cases, the results from a Ultherapy treatment last from 1 to 1.5 years. If you choose to undergo repeat treatments, then the results will obviously be longer lasting. Patients typically choose to undergo repeat Ultherapy treatments if their skin sags more than they would like after an initial treatment. As with cosmetic surgery procedures, however, results can vary from person to person.
Ultherapy cost may vary from office to office, but is somewhat fixed by the manufacturer. Price may average from $1500- $4500 depending on size of treatment.
Although patients can see immediate effects it can take anywherebetween 2-6 months for full results. How long the results last can vary fromperson to person, their aging process, and how hard they are on their skin.This would include sun exposure, trauma to the area, smoking, and otherfactors. It also depends on the individual’s continuous care for their face andbody, weight control etc.
How often patients go back for Ultherapy treatments to maintain their results depends on each individual and on factors such as the state of their skin before their initial treatment, the degree of results they achieved, as well as lifestyle habits such as smoking and UV exposure. Some people prefer to have their Ultherapy updated annually, while others see their doctors for maintenance treatments every 2 years. You and your doctor will be able to decide the best schedule to keep your results looking fresh. The cost of Ultherapy depends on where you live and which area(s) you're treating. In Toronto, for instance, Ultherapy treatment can range from $1,000 to $5,000. If you’re treating only a small area (such as above your brows), the price can run between $750 and $1,000.
Ultherapy is FDA cleared to provide noninvasive tightening of the skin in the face, jowls and neck along with the eyebrows (lift and tone), undereyes and decolletage.Read the Ultherapy ebook provided on the link below. Home devices will not safely reproduce the effects of Ultherapy in any...
It is safe to undergo Ultherapy treatment, even with an underlying diagnosis of rosacea. It's mechanism of action will not adversely affect rosacea or cause a flare-up.
I have had high satisfaction from my patients that have had Ultherapy. It is great for skin tightening, however it will not get as dramatic results as face/neck lift surgery. See a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon that offers Ultherapy to see if you are a candidate. Good luck!
