Now my face looks fat and round. I modeled my entire life and am upset because I don' t photograph well. I spoke to my friend in Paris and she did it as well, but they did 200 lines for her ENTIRE face. Why are they using 800 lines? I was told by a French doctor, that I should have had 100 lines, max. Why do they insist on 800 lines? Is that why everyone is miserable on this site?

Answer: 500 lines of energy with Ulthera? I was one of the first 30 docs who incorporated Ulthera in the USA. The initial recommendations were to do 300-400 lines of energy. That recommendation has steadily increased to 800 lines for mild to moderate aging at present. We have done as many as 2000 in select patients. Furthermore, I am a strong proponent of multiple modality non-surgical facial rejuvenation and I do routinely add volume restoration (Radiesse or Voluma), skin resurfacing (chemical peel, laser, IPL), Botulinum toxins, and, more recently, Kybella. These add-ones are designed to optimize my outcomes with the intent of achieving a true "Non-Surgical Face Lift". I have done numerous studies looking at different uses of Ukthera and I have spoken about Ulthera nationally and internationally since 2011. I mean no disrespect to whomever may be doing 100 line treatments but that is inadequate unless you are ONLY treating a small area, such as the brows. Properly done Ultherapy yields noticBle results in over 95% of our patients.
