I know that Ultherapy can tighten skin and prevent future sagging. But it can also cause loss of volume, which can age you. Is it possible that loss of volume can cause sagging and wrinkles in the future? Considering these risks, is Ultherapy (or other deeply penetrating energy device) really worth it? Are there ways to avoid these risks?
