Profound RF or Ulthera on 30 year old female? (photos)

For a fraction of the price, in the hands of an experienced, board certified cosmetic dermatologist injector, appropriately robust and volumizing HA fillers, such as Voluma XC and Restylane Lyft can be used to lift cheeks, contour a more feminine, heart-shaped face, and straighten and define the jawline and eliminate jowling there--typically with on-the-spot results that elicit an immediate "Wow!" reaction and engender little to no significant downtime and typically for a lot less money than the "bells and whistles" ultrasound and RF devices whose hard science to support these expensive treatments lags woefully behind the heavy marketing and business incentive to promote them. Hope this helps.

Hi,
The efficacy of Profound on lifting the Jawline area and fixing the premature jowls is much more than Ulthera. You should wait 6 months to see the final result. By the way, based on your pictures, Buccal fat removal which is an easy, minor, low cost surgery can be another good option for you.
Best regards,
Dr Ali Sajjadian

ProfoundRF and Ultherapy are both popular non-surgical treatments for skin tightening and rejuvenation, but they have distinct differences in their mechanisms and outcomes. ProfoundRF stands out for its ability to target multiple layers of the skin, including deeper tissues, which can result in more comprehensive results compared to Ultherapy. Specifically for your face, ProfoundRF can effectively decrease fat in the jowls and provide a cleaner neck and jawline contour, addressing concerns beyond just skin tightening. Additionally, ProfoundRF stimulates the production of collagen and elastin, promoting long-lasting improvements in skin quality and firmness. While Ultherapy is effective for skin tightening, it may not have the same depth of treatment or ability to target fat as effectively as ProfoundRF. Find a Profound expert.
