Curious about Ultherapy vs liquid face lift, what is best option or is there something better? (photos)

Thank you for your question. 
For the best results, you usually need a combination of filler and
Ultherapy.  Ultherapy is a non-invasive facelift
procedure to rejuvenate and tighten skin on the face, forehead and neck.
Ultherapy treatments improve wrinkles on the face, neck and décolletage with no
downtime. Ultherapy works by administering ultrasound energy to specific depths
of skin and muscle with precise ultrasound guidance, which causes tissue
tightening and collagen production. 
Filler can help with volume deficit

Ultherapy can provide a lifting effect on skin, while fillers ("liquid facelift") add volume. Often both together give the best result. An in-person consultation will give you the best information.

The short answer is that you could benefit from both.  Facial aging involves loss of collagen elasticity (improved by Ultherapy) and also volume loss (improved by fillers and fat grafting)

A combination approach is needed to get the most improvement with skin tightening for the face. I recommend J Plasma, lasers (Fraxel, Clear + Brilliant, Co2), fillers, microneedling/prp, ultherapy and rf treatments to get the best outcomes. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a cosmetic dermatologist.

These are two completely but complimentary rejuvenation non surgical techniques. Ultherapy is microfocused thermocoagulation of the deep dermis which stimulates collagen and hence facial lifting and tightening. It is particularly good and FDA recognised for non surgical facelift for jowls. Filler is injection of hyaluronate by needle or cannula to improve the shape and contour of your face, particularly the cheeks and under eye area.However, what both have in common are that they are non surgical, repeatable treatments, best done every 18 to 24 months for maintenance.

Great question.  For what you are describing it sounds like a combination approach will get you the best results.  I like to use Ultherapy first as a "foundation" treatment and then add volume were needed to optimize the results.  When necessary I will add novathreads as well.  Some patients I just recommend Ultherapy, so a consultation from a provider that offers all of these modalities is very important to map our an individualized treatment plan.

For best results, It is often a combination of treatments to get you the best results. Treatments can designed to address the global aging with a combination of fillers (around your mouth), Ultherapy for tightening, Silhouette instalift for lifting and re-volumizing as well as Botox for the eyebrows.I hope this helps!Dr. Quenby Erickson, DO, FAAD, FACMS

Ultherapy would be a great option for addressing your skin laxity as it is not severe yet. We find in our practice that the patients who get the absolute best results are those whose laxity falls in the mild to moderate and moderate range. Once you get severe laxity, about the only (or at least best) thing you can do is surgery. However, a combination approach would be better for you as you have both volume loss and laxity. Both occur as the collagen, elastin, and hylauronic acid degrade in our skin. Addressing the laxity but not the volume loss or vice versa will render ok (but not "wow") results. We often encourage patients to combine Sculptra (a collagen stimulator) with Ultherapy. Both are foundation level treatments and really encourage your body to do the work of rebuilding and renewing its collagen and elastin thus resulting in a much more natural result. A liquid facelift generally uses a variety of dermal fillers to restore volume to your face. While either option would work for you, we are inclined to recommend Ultherapy and injectables for the most natural and long lasting (thus cost-effective) results. You look great and now is the perfect time to prevent and maintain future "gravity" concerns.
