I am less concerned about the welts themselves than the long term implications, i.e. the procedure might not be effective because it was done too superficially. Thank you!

Answer: Welts after Ultherapy These welts should have no long term consequence to your skin and should resolve within a few days. As for the effectiveness issue, the treatment depth is chosen based on what is viewed on the screen ultrasound image. For tightening, usually the green or blue transducers are used. The orange transducer helps more with skin texture improvements. Check with your doctor on the procedure details and it's likely they used two or three different depths over the same areas to help you get the best results.

Answer: Welts after Ultherapy Welts after Ultherapy is a very common phenomenon after using the 1.5 mm Orange Transducer. This head delivers energy/heat very superficially which can result in the welts. They usually completely resolve within 24 hours and the patient should be made aware that this can occur at the end of the procedure so they don't worry.
