Can someone who has rosacea undergo an ultherapy treatment?

Yes, those with rosacea can still undergo Ultherapy treatments. Ulthera is a non-ablative procedure that most Rosacea patients can undergo.

It is safe to undergo Ultherapy treatment, even with an underlying diagnosis of rosacea. It's mechanism of action will not adversely affect rosacea or cause a flare-up.

We have done Ultherapy on multiple rosacea patients with little or no effect on their rosacea.  Initially, there may be some swelling for a day or so, but after the treatment the rosacea is the same as it was before.  Ultherapy is one of my favorite treatments and great because it is so easily tolerated.  Good luck!

The redness from the rosacea is from superficial vessels.  The ulthera is working at a deeper level and should not affect these.  Some people get a little red from the Ulthera which resolves in a day or two.  Intense Pulsed LIght treatments work very well to help decrease the redness from the rosacea.    

Hi B,We have treated multiple rosacea patients with Ultherapy.  It is completely safe, and in many cases the patients rosacea is lightened.  There is a noticeable difference in skin color and quality after most Ultherapy face treatments.  It will not make rosacea symptoms worse. Good luck and be well.Dr. P
