Is Ultherapy a good option for women over 70?

Question

I've taken good care of my skin, but would like to tighten up my skin and lessen the appearance of wrinkles.

Jason Emer, MD · Answer

For facial rejuvenation I would suggest a combination approach including:
1) Skincare with products and microneedling/PRP
2) PDT Light Therapy a few times per month with growth factors
3) Laser treatments like Clear + Brilliant regularly and others (Fraxel, Moxi, Viva, CO2, Erbium, Halo) a few times per year
4) Sculptra injections a few times per year for collagen production with fillers like Juvederm, Restylane, Belotero, Radiesse, and/or Bellafill
5) Thermage/Ultherapy for yearly skin tightening with or without PDO or cone-based Instalift threads for lifting
6) Botox every 2 to 3 months to stop movement lines and prevent lines at rest

See an expert. Best, Dr. Emer​

Ultherapy is the best option for women over 70, especially if surgery is not being considered. Ultherapy is the only non-surgical procedure cleared by the FDA to lift your skin, not just tighten it. It works on every type of skin and color and can be done in the summer. The safe ultrasound waves are targeted to bypass the top layer of your skin and breakdown your old collagen on multiple levels under the skin, including the deep layer that plastic surgeons work on during a face lift. Over the course of a few months brand new collagen is formed creating a beautiful natural lift.
