Does Ulthera Work As an Eyebrow Lift on Young People Also?

Question

Hi everyone, I'm very young but think my brows are a bit low(not extremely, but if I elevate them about 2mm it looks better).I don't want invasive surgery (I'm in my 20s) and wouldn't want botox either, so I read about Ulthera.Does it only work as a slight brow lift on old people whose brows have fallen or on young people who've always had low brows as well?Is it a good substitution for a botox brow lift?And is there risk of fat loss if only the brow area is treated.How much would this be?Thanks

There have not been reports of fat loss with Ulthera although this is being studied.  If you're in your twenties and note that the eyebrows can be pulled up with a couple of millimeters and produce a better aesthetic result, then you should look at photographs of when you were 10 years old. If the eyebrows were in the same position, then you wouldn't expect to get much lift as that was never you! The risks are minimal but the cost and pain can be considerable so make sure it's worth it to you to try it despite the possibility of not getting any benefit.

Yes, Ulthera works on younger patients with low brows just as it works on middle aged or older patients.  Ulthera does not result in aggressive brow lifting so you don't have to worry that your  brows will be too high.  I have not seen any issues with fat loss.  Good luck.

Absolutely. Ultherapy is FDA cleared for non surgical brow lift. It works well on young adults and adults. It is more likely to work on young adults as there is more muscle bulk in the eyebrow and forehead. Read the Ultherapy ebook provided on the link below under ebook section.

Goal for younger patients undergoing Ultherapy, in my experience, may be slightly different than older patient.  We have had good results in treating younger patient who is looking for more "facial contouring" and reshaping of face, rather than general tightening and lifting.  You would need a proper evaluation, but we've had a few young patients that have achieve satisfactory results.

With our experience on many patients, Ulthera showed excellent results in lifting the eyebrows. However, patients with the most improvement had mildly sagging skin. While some patients may achieve 11/2 mm elevation. Given your age & tighter skin that you would achieve the result that you are looking for. Inorder to establish if you are a candidate for Ulthera, you must see aulthera specialist in person to determine if Ulthera or other options are best for you.  Botox or dysport browlift may be an option; however, you will need to consult an experienced dermatologist.
