I am 62 and have good skin. I have been advised that Ultherapy can tighten the jawline and lift the forehead. Obviously nothing can replace the knife and Ultherapy is expensive as non surgical procedures go but if it can actually achieve the above without downtime then it may be worth it.
Answer: Ultherapy has helped many of my NYC patients see tighter facial skin but not all patients obtain the same improvement Certain features may decrease one's possibility of getting good lifting and tightening from Ultherapy. Significant prior sun damage which weakens the deep collagen and elasticity of the skin will minimize the improvement. Smokers and heavy faces also don't get as good a result.

Answer: Ultherapy Get Results I have had high satisfaction from my patients that have had Ultherapy. It is great for skin tightening, however it will not get as dramatic results as face/neck lift surgery. See a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon that offers Ultherapy to see if you are a candidate. Good luck!

Answer: Ultherapy can tighten the jawline and raise the brows without surgery I tell my patients that overall, Ultherapy can improve the face and yield about 405 of the result of a facelift, but without incisions and for a quarter the price. Results can take up to 6 months to fully manifest. So, if you want a dramatic change, surgery is best. If you are looking for subtle changes then Ultherapy can work.

Answer: The necessity of patient selection for getting good results from Ulthera Any skin tightening procedure has the potential to help firm up falling and lax tissue. But it's not a panacea for all. If you understand how skin collagen functions change with age, it helps you understand why the younger patients seem to benefit the most."Slower" collagen replenishment occurs with age - that's an established fact. But since we all age at varying rates, you'll see some 62 year old's who look 50 and others who look 70.Your doctor knows your skin - or can assess the potential. Ultherapy can work in someone your age. The results for anyone is not guaranteed to a specific level, but most everyone enjoys some type of lift and tightening. Getting an experienced and frank assessment of your potential is a first step.Bio-stimulatory products like Sculptra or the robust long term fillers like Voluma - with or without tightening procedures - can also help you look fresher and more youthful.
