Can I get fillers a week after Ultherapy?

Question

I`d like to have Ultherapy on my forehead, and then I also thought of having fillers in my cheeks. Can I do fillers in a week after Ultherapy? Or deep tissues will be damaged and I need a bigger pause between the procedures?

Hi KatyaAndr,

Yes it is perfectly fine to have fillers in your cheeks a week after Ultherapy of your forehead.  If you are only treating your forehead then you may have cheek filler at the same treatment session without waiting the week.  When we perform Ultherapy on the face, we prefer to inject filler after to avoid the heat of Ultherapy directly over the filler.  Choose your treating physician carefully.  Good luck and be well.

Thank you for your question. It is very safe to get fillers a week after your Ultherapy treatment. In fact, you could undergo these procedures at the same time if you choose. In that case, I usually perform fillers first in a different area than Ultherapy and follow up with the Ultherapy. The combination of these two treatments creates a very nice rejuvenation, tightening skin while restoring youthful volume. Make sure you are working with an experienced, board-certified dermatologist to ensure an optimal outcome from both of your treatments.

Thank you for your question. I would recommend getting the two treatments at the same time to avoid a second trip to your doctor’s office. Since they are in different treatment areas, this should be completely safe and effective. I would likely recommend getting the Ultherapy first, followed by the fillers. Make sure you are working with an experienced, board-certified dermatologist to ensure an optimal outcome from both your treatments.

Thank you for your question!  You can get fillers the same day as Ultherapy.  We recommend Ultherapy first and then fillers, they are great combination therapies!

I do fillers on the same day as ultherapy, I dont see why you have to wait. but you can do it anytime after in my opinion. I would suggest Aerify or enlighten peels and dermarolling weekly MTS roller with anteage ampules as well as EMERAGESKIN refit face and eye to help for Antiaging.  Best, Dr. Emer.

Hi KatyAndr and thank you for your question!
There would not be any contraindication to getting fillers a week after Ultherapy, especially considering that you are receiving the Ultherapy treatment on your forehead and the fillers in your cheeks.  Even if you were to do Ultherapy on the cheek area, a week would be a sufficient amount of time for you to get fillers there as well. I hope this helps!
