Thank you for the detailed question. Here at Aristocrat Plastic Surgery & MedAesthetics, we have been doing Ulthera since its inception, and this is the first time we are hearing about blindness after treatment. I suggest that you go to an office that has technicians who specialize in Ulthera and a facility that uses an authentic Ulthera machine. I've been seeing faux ultrasound machines on the market for years now. That may be the culprit. For more information please visit our webpage.
This is the first time I have heard about ultherapy causing blindness. Ultherapy uses ultrasound beam so it has no harmful effects on eyes. We at our practice frequently treat the area around the eyes and even close to the eyes to provide the best glowing look.
Until this question, I had not even heard about this problem, which considering we're one of the busiest Ultherapy offices around is something. I would suggest you only go to offices that have experienced people doing the treatment.
If Ultherapy is done correctly, there should not be any damage to the eyes. Therefore, it is very important to have your treatments done at a facility where a physician who specializes in aesthetic medicine is present and to be sure that the treatment providers have advanced training in Ulthera.

The protocol says to put the under eye down outside of the orbital bone and then treat the tissue, and for above the eye it should be used above the brow and if used under the eye brow, the technician is to raise the tissue up to ensure the eye is not touched. I haven't heard of this, however that's not to say it hasn't happened. I think it may be technician dependent and they may have treated too close to the eye.I hope that helps.
Dear Sally:The issues you describe generally require a full-face treatment with Ultherapy. While the number of lines recommended is good, I would generally deliver 800 to 1200 Lines with one treatment, offering a lower price to a younger person such as yourself who should need a lower number of...
Many thanks for your question. Ultherapy does not cause fat loss. Ultherapy uses focused ultrasound energy which tightens deep dermal and connective tissue layers without surgery. The effects of Ultherapy on facial fat has been studied and is not significant. It is a quarter of a teaspoon -...
In my experience there's little effect from Ultherapy over threads, and we've done this for patients in our clinic a number of times.
