No improvement with Ulthera - what next? How long must I wait before I try another procedure like Forma, Profound or Exilis?

Question

In February, I did Ulthera to my mid / lower face and neck. I see no changes whatsoever. Any suggestions greatly appreciated! Thank you!

It can take up to 6 months to see results from an Ultherapy treatment. Make sure you follow up with your provider to compare your before and after pictures. Often times we don't notice the subtle changes ourselves until we see the pictures. Ultherapy works best in combination with other treatments and there is no waiting period needed at this point. Make sure you are under the care of an experienced provider. Best wishes.

Jason Emer, MD · Answer

For best results, I recommend ultherapy in combination with other treatments like lasers, RF treatments, microneedling/PRP or sculptra to get increased collagen, tightening and improve skin tone. You can have these procedures now and often combine procedures on the same day. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with an expert. Depending on your starting point you may not see anything from ultherapy and it may just be preventative.  Best, Dr. Emer
