I'm 50, my treatment attached, I will be attending a consultation to discuss this, considering I paid full price for the best treatment, which doesn't seem to have been provided to me. Should I request to be treated again with the remaining lines (and depth) that I didn't receive 6 months ago? Paid full price. Thank you.
Answer: No results from Ultherapy. You are voicing the same complaints I have heard from many of my patients who had Ultherapy treatment outside of my practice. It may give slight improvement in a small select group of patients but most patients see little to no results. Additional treatments will not likely improve your result. If you have sagging muscles and skin of your neck, your maximal improvement will be achieved by a well done neck and facelift by a board certified plastic surgeon. These results will be noticeable and long lasting. Best wishes.

Answer: No results from Ultherapy Ultherapy does not replace a facelift. The results from Ultherapy are VERY subtle compared to an actual surgical lift so maybe your expectations were a little too high. I would discuss your concerns with your provider. Looking at before and after photos will determine if you truly had no result or just the expected subtle result.Andrew Campbell, M.D.Facial Rejuvenation SpecialistQuintessa

Answer: Disappointed with results of Ultherapy for face and neck: next step? Unfortunately although many patients with early changes of aging have been satisfied with the results of Ultherapy I have personally seen many patients who felt they saw little or no improvement. Noninvasive or minimally invasive techniques all rely on heating the skin and underlying tissue enough to shorten the collagen fibers by inducing some thermal damage. There is simply a limit to how much tightening you can get without actually resecting tissues surgically and the deeper SMAS level is not addressed at all. I think it is extremely unlikely that another noninvasive treatment like Ultherapy is going to give you a meaningful improvement.

Answer: No results after Ultherapy 6 months ago It is difficult to give you the best advice without examining you. It is possible that you may not have been a good candidate for Ultherapy and that is why you are not seeing results 6 months after your treatment. It is likely that a surgical procedure could give you more dramatic results than those that could be achieved with Ultherapy. I would discuss your concern with the physician who treated you and mutually decide on a plan to give you better results.

Answer: Consider surgery If you've failed to be pleased with a non surgical alternative, maybe its time to consider surgery. Its hard to tell without photos of your face. At this point, its best to go for another consultation with this in mind.
