I am a 50 year old female. I am looking for a treatment for a slightly sagging jaw line and tightening of eyelids. I also have some leftover acne scars from my younger years. Is there ONE treatment that takes care of everything at once? I was thinking Ultherapy?
Answer: Ultherapy and VBeam do entirely different things Ultherapy is great for tightening skin non-surgically. VBeam laser is used to improve redness: red scars, red veins, rosacea, cherry angiomas, etc.

Answer: Sagging skin, acne scars and fraxel laser resurfacing in my NYC practice There can be some tightening obtained when Fraxel laser resurfacing is done, especially the Fraxel Repair laser and this can help reduce acne scarring. There are risks of all procedures and during the consultation the physician should evaluate the patient's skin and discuss the benefits and risks. Some patients can have both Ultherapy and Fraxel Repair, with the Fraxel done after the Ultherapy. Fraxel Restore/Dual, is done as a series of treatments as opposed to the Repair, which is usually done as one treatment, but the Restore isn't expected to produce much tightening.The V-beam is not expected to help reduce acne crater scarring to any significant degree (although it does reduce the redness of acute acne inflammation) or produce skin tightening.

Answer: Is there a single treatment for sagging skin and acne scars Without a photograph it is difficult to predict whether or not you would achieve satisfactory outcomes from a single treatment. If I were to think about 1 treatment that might address both issues it would probably be some type of resurfacing. However, I would need to see both the skin and the acne scars. Good luck!

Answer: Ultherapy best for noninvasive skin lifting Ultherapy is the only FDA-cleared treatment for noninvasive skin lifting. There are several options for acne scars but no really good ones. Fractionated lasers could help, but allow for a little recovery time.

Answer: Best Sagging Jaw Line Treatment Hello Beate. Ultherapy is the best treatment to tighten and firm the sagging skin of the jawline. It will also help to decrease excess skin hooding in the area of the eyelids, which will open up your eyes and arch your eyebrow. I would recommend it to address your concerns in these areas. As far as the acne scarring goes, there is no definitive evidence as of yet that Ultherapy will treat this. However, acne scarring can be successfully treated with fractional resurfacing versus a series of chemical peels depending on how aggressive you want to be. Hope this helps answer your questions. Feel free to contact us if you have anymore questions. Best wishes.
