Welts after Ulthera treatment occur occasionally but are rare in my experience. They are inflammatory and generally respond well to topical Benadryl or Hydrocortisone cream. It sounds like you have quite a few of them, I recommend returning to your treating physician for further evaluation.
"Welting" can occur if the transducer is not perfectly perpendicular to the skin. It is usually a transient event and this effect is minimal in experienced hands. Hydrocortisone cream helps resolve it quickly.BestDr H Karamanoukian#RealSelf100 Member
Hello, Welts can occur following Ulthera. During the actual treatment, if I see that a welt has occured, I immediately apply ice packs to the welt for a few minutes, and it resolves very quickly. I usually will not have a patient leave my office if they have any welts as it is so easy to appy ice and prevent any heat damage to the skin.If you have a few welts after you are home, apply ice and ask your dermatologist for further advice.
Welting after Ultherapy treatment can happen and is fairly common. Not to worry. Welting typically will only last a few days.
Hi,This is an uncommon but luckily, short lasting event you can see with a superficial transducer with Ultherapy. This is easily fixed with a mid potency topical steroid. Please contact your provider for a prescription for one for you.Warmly,Dr.Liu

Ultherapy is not a laser. It is focused ultrasound not only to visualize the treatment layers but uses the ultrasound to create little internal wounds via the ultrasound which your body will want to repair. During this repair process you will create new collagen to give you the lift...
There are many treatments for this area. Fractional co2 laser or fractional RF treatments are usually best to this area in combination with fillers and/or botox. I suggest you see a cosmetic dermatologist with experience in lasers and fillers. Best, Dr. Emer
Hi Dragon,Ultherapy is the best lifting and tightening non-invasive technology available. Pelleve` is good for the eye area, but takes multiple treatments. Ultherapy is a one session treatment. As for "fat melting", I have treated hundreds of patients over the past 5 years with...
Ultherapy is not an exception for a facelift. Ultherapy gives some lifting and that can help prevent the aging process, but if you need a lift, surgery is your best bet. Having ultherapy in the past will not affect the face lift. Best, Dr. Emer.
