Still very very happy with the results.
My skin on my mid face is definately still firmer and musch tighter both visably and to the touch. Would definately do it again knowing what I know and would definately take a pain killer and an anti-anxiety med again so that the pain is not a deterrant. Someone said it is similar pain to tatto pain and I somewhat agree especially on the jaw and cheekbones. Tolerable but unpleasant. Heard it might be possible to use the shallow passes (not the deeper ones due to the nerves) closer to the nasolabial areas which is intriguing and something I might therefore consider this winter if it is shown to help those areas. Went with a friend who is a healhty and young looking 64 and she had terrific results on her neck and mid face. She tolerated the pain though also said it was quite intense at times. She took two Vicadin and held and ice pack during some of the procedure. It has been about a month for her and she had very noticeable changes. It took me two months to see any change (I am 53).

Update - I am overall very happy with the results - numerous women I know (some through work, some family, my hairdresser, manicurist, etc.) have made unsolicited remarks to me about how good my skin looks - a couple have asked what I did. My skin tone is definately tigher and more firm. Is it a replacement for a face lift - no way, but I am not ready for one yet. Will I add perlane to my cheekbone area or radiesse around my nasolabial area if the doc thinks it will help future marionette lines - yep cause Ultherapy does not address that area - I think only the shallow lines can be laid there. I will consider doing my neck if I think it will make a difference in the future. For now I only did the face. I do not think I would do the forehead because I do not have an issue there now and the pain would probably be beyond what I want to deal with given it is not an issue.

Thanks for keeping us updated on what you are seeing post-treatment. It is so helpful to hear. How wonderful you have received unsolicited compliments! That is awesome!! Please keep the updates coming because it is really good for us to hear how long a treatment lasts and what to expect as the skin changes.

2 weeks out - still happy so far - looking for more results of course as time goes on but the skin in general had a definate firmer feeling - hard to explain - just an overall more compacted feeling, kinda thicker feeling. Right side which is the less lax side is noticeably better already, left perhaps a wee bit and definately looking for more there. Will continue to post.
