I read that ulthera should not be painful (as it was for me) if the doctor is aware of where facial nerves and bones are, and performs the procedure correctly. Why did mine hurt while others did not? (I do have good pain tolerance.) Thanks!
Answer: How painful is Ultherapy ? I have done Ultherapy since 2011 and have done this procedure in hundreds of patients.I have only terminated the procedure in 1 patient due to 'excessive pain' despite using ibuprofen before (1 hour before 400 mg) and immediately before (400 mg) the procedure. The modified or reprogrammed device (3rd generation) is nearly painless at the highest settings of energy delivery. Overanxious patients can be driven to the office and are recommended to take 5 - 10 mg of valium an hour before the procedure. Read the Ultherapy ebook provided on the link below.

Answer: Ultherapy can hurt Ultherapy is very effective at non-invasively tightening the skin. The procedure can be painful, but is felt differently by every patient. Pain varies from hardly any to severe. It is helpful to give a pain medication and a light sedative to help with the pain. If our patients get a sedative I make sure they get someone else to drive them home. Pain is almost gone except for some tenderness as soon as the procedure is over.
