Does Ultherapy really correct sagging skin?

Question

I am 43. I have tried Morpheus eight, which helped a lot. But I am looking for something that lifts and tightens better than Morpheus. I am thinking about trying ultherapy, but the before and after photos don’t look much different and it doesn’t seem that impressive. Plus I heard it can cause tissue damage Has anyone had impressive results from ultherapy?

Raffy Karamanoukian, MD, FACS · Answer

Morpheus 8 is a non-invasive skin and soft tissue tightening treatment that is consistently amazing in our patients. We use the Morpheus to exact fractional induced RF into the skin or tissue in order to tighten collagen and stimulate contraction of the tissue. For acne scars, it is quite useful to build collagen in patients who have atrophic scars but is not very productive for ice-pick scars which require TCA Cross. For tissue tightening, Morpheus is ideal for the face and neck and we often combine it with CO2 laser or Ultherapy to further enhance results. Chemical peels and skin resurfacing should be done at least 5 to 7 days after, but can be performed earlier, depending on treatment severity. Avoid exfoliating skin treatments before Morpheus and expect a period of 2-4 weeks for skin contraction to set in.
