Ultherapy: Can You Over-do Ultherapy, Causing Your Skin to Stop Reacting/responding to It?

Ulthera can safely be performed every six months. Many patients continue to see excellent results and do not look 'overdone.' It's important to visit an expert facial plastic surgeon for your treatment. 

A "booster" treatment with ultherapy every couple of years, to fight the ongoing aging process, makes sense. This has not been studied but as the Ultherapy  is a very safe treatment it is commonly repeated, sometimes six or twelve months later, but certainly two years would be reasonable.

Hi Happy,

Though Ultherapy is relatively new (3 years on the market), it is not thought that you need be concerned about your skin and muscles not responding over time with continued treatments.  We have had experience with patients continuing to respond well over their first 3 treatments...that will give you at least the next 6 years to be unconcerned!  We have re-treated patients with excellent results as soon as 4 months later with continued improvement.  Good luck and be well.
