WORTH IT$3,500
I was very nervous about this treatment, and waited several months before I would review. I am completely blown away with the results. Not only does my ski look tighter and my neck no long needs a neck lift, I also have skin with a whole new texture which I was not at all expecting. My pores are tiny and skin so smooth. The prep for the procedure was the most painful but after that it was more tolerable. I will warn people that the recovery time is at least 8 days, maybe more, I bruised pretty bad, but again well worth it. I have done other skin tightening procedures and this gave me the most results. I also like to keep my skin fresh with regular maintenance of IPL's. The only person I have found knows her stuff is Lauren Gross at Larabee Center in Seattle, she is also who performed the Profound treatment. I am a 44 yr old woman

Was this the Profound laser or Ultherapy laser?

Thank you for your reply. The reason I asked is that I didn't see it offer on their website. Your results are great. It looks like you got a mini lift.

thank you! yes they don't have it on the site for some reason. Lauren Gross is my skin girl and she told me about it, so thats how I knew, she is amazing!

How are you now? I am getting the profound non surgical facelift in 2 months, I am confident that once the freezing sets in I will be ok. What I am worried about is the needles before hand. I have zero tolerance to pain (redhead and very light skin) and I am afraid of needles. Any thoughts?

I am sorry I just saw this note. For sure don't do this if you are fearful of needles. There is a lot of needles invloved in this procedure.

Wow- that looks amazing! We are nearly the same age, and I had this done just four days ago (along with CO2). It looks like I'm going to have some significant residual bruising on my chin and am wondering what you used for that (as well as how long it lasted)? Thanks!

I am so happy you got it done. I bruised bad and was very swollen for a good 2 weeks. Way more downtime than I planned. But results were great. I used a medical barrier creme but other than that I ate really healthy and took vitamins.

How do you feel and look now that it's been a few months? Everything still looking great? Also, what areas of your face were done?
July 29, 2017
my face has healed perfectly. I had part of neck area and lower face done and I love the neck results the best. The face lifted but not as much as I had hoped. I do not regret getting this done and would recommend this treatment but beware the down time is a good 2 weeks, 1 week of not even leaving the house

Your face looks great in the after picture. I have to say it looks like your neck and area around your mouth improved dramatically. Thank you so much for your continued feedback. I'm scheduled for the procedure in November so I plan time at home for healing and possibly conceal neck bruising with a scarf.

How many treatments do yiu need? Is this permanent?
September 22, 2017
i only needed one treatment, pretty sure thats all they do is one. I dont think its a forever fix but still looks great a year later

You look amazing! I had the profound lift on my lower face and upper neck about five days ago. I'm really nervous about my neck; it looks like the thin, wrinkly skin on the front of my neck is worse and I'm already starting to fret about having a neck lift lol. When did you start to notice an improvement with your neck?
November 13, 2017
I would not worry yet. My healing took at least 3 weeks. I literally did not leave my house for almost 2 weeks I was so swollen and bruised. I would say a good month I saw the tightness on my neck. Hang in there

Thank you so much!! I usually heal so fast but this is way more intense than anything I've ever done. I'm going to listen to you, chill out and be more patient with my body. :-)
So glad you're pleased with your results! I know the community would love to see some before and after photos, do you have any to share?
