It's been 3 months since ultherapy. My chin has morphed daily. Now it's smaller looking and thinner from either side (not a natural continuation of my face anymore). It also sort of curls onto itself if I make the slightest facial expression. It used to be longer in a sense, & more attractive. I also have the weirdest dimples if I smile/frown. I know my face very well even in action & this definitely wasn't there before. Why is this happening? Will it go away when effects of ultherapy wear off?

Answer: Ultherapy results--add lasers, RF, Sculptra, microneedling/prp to improve results
Ultherapy uses a focused ultra sound to penetrate the deeper layers of skin. The treatment can feel like little shocks deep in the skin. This is the energy being delivered. These mild heat injuries stimulate the body's response to make collagen that create a tightening effect.Best of luck!
Thank you for your question! Ultherapy will give you a rejuvenating, fresh look but you also have to keep in mind that every day, you are still aging. Using medical grade skin products, staying out of the sun or always wearing SPF, and keeping hydrated will slow down the aging process.
Ultherapy works better when combined with other treatments to further optimize results. We use Lasers, Chemical Peels, Microneedling, RF treatments, and Fillers along with Ultherapy to further improve and maintain results. Make sure you are under the care of an experienced provider. Best wishes.
