At this time, there have not been any studies published on the effectiveness of two or more Ultherapy treatments. But it is possible that Ultherapy could be performed a second time. This is an option especially if a facelift or other surgery is not an option for you.
it is possible that the first Ultherapy you had got the basic collagen production started and some tightening of the SMAS connective tissue layer occurred but the bad sun damage or the inelastic skin sagging did not reveal a clnical lift. The next ulthera may improve the tightening enough to show the improvement dramatically. Unfortunately, some patients, especially those with inelastic skin from bad sundamge, smoking, etc. are not expected to get as good a result and they may only get improvement with a facelift.
Whether a second ultherapy treatment is worthwhile depends on the quality of your skin and the results that you got from the first treatment. If you had some improvement, but want more, a second ultherapy treatment may be helpful. If you noticed no improvement, it would probably be better to consider a modality that produces more dramatic results (eg face and/or necklift)

Ultherapy can be used safely with all skin types. Unlike lasers, you do not need to take caution with tanned skin. The ultrasound energy bypasses the more superficial layers of skin, leaving them intact and unharmed.
Yes you can have a repeat treatment in six months but I try to encourage my patients to wait for twelve months as there may still be some small improvement after six while collagen is still produced.
Because Ulthera uses highly focused ultrasound to stimulate collagen under the skin to remodel, it takes a few months to see the full effect. Only one session is necessary. You may wish to repeat it at yearly intervals (think of it as setting back the aging clock) but more frequent than that...
There are several things that must be understood about ulthera and other new technologies. Firstly you must understand that all of the information out there is from a company that wants to sell you on this as the latest and greatest. However if you read the company's statements,...
I'm glad you finished your chemo. Chemotherapy does suppress the immune system and impairs your body's ability to heal. Radiation does impact the body's ability to heal, but is much more directed at the target tissue area. As you have finished your chemotherapy, the...
