Will Ultherapy of the Mid-face Effect the Sculptra I Had Placed into my Hollow Cheeks?

Ultherapy will not adversely affect your sculptra in fact they are a nice combination as the ultherapy tightens the skin and the sculptra helps restore volume and natural contour to the face. Just today I treated a woman with full facial sculptra and then immediately after did ultherapy. This combination is very nice becasue the sculptra is mixed with lidocaine which makes the face numb so the ultherapy is completely painless. I do not recommend Ultherapy over fillers that can be subject to heat destruction such as the hyaluronic fillers such as Restylane or juvederm but sculptra is unique in being a small particle filler that induces collagen renewal and growth over time.

I recommend not having Ulthera treatment over recently placed fillers.  It is unclear whether there is an effect but the concern is that the ultrasound energy may degrade previously placed fillers.  Sculptra may be less likely to have problems because it works by stimulating collagen production but these studies are still being done.  I frequently use fillers and Ulthera on the same day but always perform the Ulthera treatment first.
