Can an Ultherapy cause aging? Is it worth the risk?

Question

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?

Kelly O'Malley Mattone, MD · Answer

Ultherapy does not cause aging or volume loss. Ultherapy is the only FDA cleared treatment where we can actually see where we are treating under the skin. The added visualization with ultrasound ensures that Ultherapy targets only collagen under the skin and not fat. Therefore, Ultherapy does not cause fat loss or volume depletion. Ultherapy is the only FDA cleared procedure to lift.
