I’m 43 female. I’ve developed this sagging lower face (yeah I know it’s age). I hate it tough. I’ve had fillers in cheeks and lower face and cheeks but it doesn’t really help and they seem to evaporate after a few months and they cost a fortune. I realise it’s too soon for a facelift or lower facelift. I’ve been told it’s not bad enough. I’ve been told Ultherapy only works on 40% of people which is a risk because it’s so expensive. Any advice appreciated.
Answer: Mini Facelift & Mini neck lift -- FaceTite RF for internal skin tightening + Neck Liposuction for definition/contouring FaceTite can internally tighten the skin in the lower face and neck. After all the skin has been heated and contracted, we shape the neck with liposuction to give definition and remove stubborn pockets of fat. In one quick treatment, we can tighten skin, remove fat, and contour the lower face, jawline, and jowls with only a weekend of downtime. Keep in mind that combination approaches will give you a more significant improvement as opposed to a single procedure. I recommend getting a consultation with a board-certified cosmetic dermatologist and facial sculpting expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Answer: A combination of morpheus8 and ultherapy can help tighten and lift the skin 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.

Answer: Ultherapy and My Evolving Thought Process With This Modality Over Time I had the Ultherapy device in my practice for about 8 years and was careful to qualify its strength and weaknesses to patients. However, it became my conclusion that despite providing adequate information on the modality, many patients had higher expectations of results than the machine could deliver. The results do not approximate those of a facelift; it isn't even close to deserving terminology such as a nonsurgical facelift. Secondly, Ultherapy is very expensive for the results delivered. Many providers do not have the training, skill, or capability to perform a facelift and may over-promote this device because it could be described as an alternative for facial aging. It really isn't. For these reasons, I decided to discontinue use of this device and really can't recommend it. Good luck.

Answer: SAVE YOUR MONEY We found Ultherapy terribly disappointing at the recommended settings. We then tried full power with no improvement. I had the company treat me at full power to make sure it was not due to my technique. Still no reliable changes. Some patients thought they noticed some improvement during the initial swelling but I could not quantitate any measurable changes. I could not in good conscience provide this service to pay off this expensive equipment knowing my patients would not get a consistent reproduceable improvement. At great financial loss I sold the machine knowing it would leave this country for Hong Kong.Save your money for when you are ready for a real facelift, or travel and adventure.
