The combination of liposuction of the neckline with ultherapy or Kybella(non-surgical fat melting) with ultherapy can be exceptional. Choose a plastic surgeon trained and experienced with all options to determine what will work best for you!Since 2012, Saratoga Springs Plastic Surgery, PC has been the Albany, NY and Capital District area office of choice for Ultherapy. We are the only area office top rated and listed on the Ultherapy.com website an "Ultra Provider". "Ultra Provider" designation by Merz, the manufacturer means my Ultherapy certified staff and I have more expertise and experience providing Ultherapy treatments than any other office in our region. In fact, Christina at my office is the only area Ultherapy technician to receive advance training at Ultherapy corporation headquarters in Phoenix, Arizona. What does this mean for you? Ultherapy is an effective tool for non-surgical facial and neck (and for treating other areas "off label") skin tightening. In the right hands it can do wonders to rejuvenate your appearance. Improperly used by poorly trained doctors, nurses or other staff located within or outside a medical office, the results can be poor and complications can occur. Since Merz/Ultherapy (the manufacturer) does not provide guidance on how to choose a provider or who is allowed to do the procedure, when it comes to choosing a provider, the catchword is "buyer beware". I imagine the overall "worth it rating" on RealSelf would be 95% for Ultherapy if poorly done treatments and patients who have unrealistic expectations of the results that could be achieved could be sorted out. I offer the analogy of a "hammer", a tool that can build a nice house or beautiful piece of furniture. But in the wrong hands the "hammer" can hurt someone if you hit them over the head.... You get the picture. Choose your Ultherapy provider with care.
