Is 7D HIFU as effective as Ultherapy or did I waste my money?

Question

I made an appt to get what I thought was ultherapy for thighs and face. The clinic called it ultratherapy (red flag #1), but never corrected me when I called it ultherapy. Red flag #2 was the price. I still went through with my thighs. I felt a little stinging when they did the back of 1 of my legs but then ABSOLUTELY NOTHING for the rest. Afterwards I googled machines and realized I was treated with a 7D HIFU machine. Does this machine work? Should I cancel my face appt? Is this safe?

Yes, you wasted your money most likely since neither treatment has a very good record of helping loose or dimply skin.  Morpheus and bodytite/facetite is the only treatment so far that really works for that purpose and should be done under local with a little  iv sedation for complete comfort (otherwise it is too painful at the higher settings which is really needed to get the job done).
