I Have Read That Ulthera Hurts but What About Preventive Measures?

We have performed Ultherapy since 2011 in hundreds of patients with high satisfaction rates.I have had the procedure myself and asked my physician assistant to stop twice because of discomfort around the jaw. I pretreat my patients with ibuprofen an hour before and another does of 800 mg immediately before in liquid form and have never had a problem with my patients. I also recommend the use of Swell-X bioflavonoids for 10 days after the procedure.There is no need to write for prescription pain meds after the procedure. Read the Ultherapy book on the link below.

Ultherapy is the only technology that can treat the facial musculature from the surface, and yes, some discomfort can be experienced during the treatment.  Areas close to, or over the bone will be more uncomfortable.  I offer my patients prescription pain and anti-anxiety medication.  A topical numbing cream can also be applied.  Effectiveness varies upon the individual.  However, we have treated hundreds of patients in my office, and while some have found the procedure uncomfortable, I have never had a patient unable to complete the treatment.
