Have people had eye issues such as vision loss or blindness after Ultherapy? If so, is that from Ultherapy done around the eyes?

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.

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. 

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.

Hello,
I have never heard of eye sight being tampered with as a result from Ultherapy. 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.
