I see a difference, mostly in your neck and jaw line. Are you happy with the results?
I did only neck and jawline. Yes in that I think it was a natural,looking way to look a bit younger.
When before pic is with a regular face ( no expression) then after pic is with a smile it is difficult to make a comparison. The face always looks better with a smile.
Dear Julia, Let me commend you for being a survivor of cancer, I know it can be a long road but you are here and thriving! I looked closely at your photos, there is most definitely a tightening and less laxity to your skin, you look amazing! Very encouraging as this is a procedure I'm interested in having in the next few years. I'm 40 but have noticed a distinct loosening of my neck/under chin area the past year. I think aging has excelerated due to my mom passing and becoming a single mom to my disabled brother. Your photos are inspiring for me! All the best, Amanda
It took longer than three months for me but I do believe it worked in a subtle but real way. Very gradual....let's see how long it last....
Also...I am sorry for your lose....
It's encouraging to see the procedure does work at some level, I've read it does take time to see full effect and requires maintenance w/subsequent treatments but better than cutting is my thought. And thank u for your kind words. :)
I'm having a bit of an issue with your review of the doctor & her office/company when you look like YOU are Dr. Jen Cronin. Your facial features (ignoring make-up, hair & lighting differences) are just way too similar... i find it hard to believe that you're a patient of hers, and not her posting this to drum up business.
I really don't know how to respond...initially I am totally flattered as the doctor is in her forties...my second response is i don't what else to say I am a little troubled you think I would that but then you don't know me....so I will let that pass...but as sure as I am a cancer survivor-I am not Dr.Cronin but her patient...I choose to take this as an extreme compliment.
Take another look. The shape of the eyes and the nose is totally different.

I am a 58-year-old lung cancer survivor that is six years out. Now that I believe I'll be alive a bit longer I would like to look a little bit younger but without surgery. Because of the Lung cancer I had to have a thoracotomy and I was in the hospital for 13 days and I'm done with that. I first heard about Ultatherapy about three years ago and began researching it in New York City since my daughter live there. Unfortunately I didn't have any success but thought if it were a truly a viable option it would finally filter its way to Jacksonville Florida. And it did. I found it up to three different people that offered Ulratherapy but decided on Dr. Jen Cronin . I suggest you go to her website Well-Defined Anti-Aging Center and you will see why.
Now the procedure itself...it hurt...it really hurt. My face was done and my neck. After I had a slightly swollen jaw line for a few days. I had bruising there and a couple on my neck for two weeks or so. My neck stayed tender till a couple of days ago. I think this means it working...let's hope so. Honestly however my husband and closest friends say they already notice a difference...and they wouldn't lie just to be nice. I don't think it shows in photos but will check back in a month. I am hoping this will be like my natural child birth with the first child...it really hurt but was worth it..my second child I had an epidural.....
