Ultherapy Continues to Prove a Disaster and Heartbreak

Nightmare! I suffered 12 months and one week with nerve pain 24 hours a day. My face is lopsided, long, and flat. Aged me terribly. The stories are true! Ultherapy company does not care. Providers are desperate to pay for their machines at your cost. This will alter your face forever!. You will be on a perpetual search for a correction.
I've had fillers and threads to pull my face back up and correct the sagging, and uneven cheeks which became fattened. None of this looks natural.
This procedure takes away a feminine quality and creates a much older look.
One dermatologist asked if I slept on my face! I'm seeing a dermatologist that agrees that Ultherapy has damaged my appearance and has challenged her ability to correct me.
This will cause depression and isolation.
Think twice.
For those that have had Ultherpy and are happy with results...I imagine they had fuller faces.
Perhaps these patients were a little overweight.
Ive had to gain weight to help bring volume back to my face. Still, my face has been ruined!
I cannot show pics or post the doctors name as I received a refund for the entire procedure and was told I a litigation would be filed against me if I did talk!
Does it matter who did it? Read the posts from patients who suffer from this. Look at pics! They are truthful...The company is lying. Don't go to any practice that offers this procedure.
For the physicians who read this, perhaps if you have patients that are thin and have had this done, please offer pictures and reviews and also offer your technique!
My provider mowed over my eyebrows over and over....I lost my eyebrows for a while. They fall out very easily to this day.
She also, concentrated on one area of my face and flattened it as if she placed a flat iron on my face.
Dealing with the providers ... not fun. They have to protect themselves... When I called the office, I heard "what do you need now".
Awful experience.
Can't take pictures anymore either.

Thank you for sharing your pain. That's not easy. Perhaps it will change someone's mind along with the others. It certainly strengthens the building consensus. You are courageous.
Be gentle with yourself. No machine can take your inner grace and light. Take care.

Well said , my life has never been the same since the Thermage/RF i have spent all my saving on fillers,vitamins, surgeon consultations/counselling/ and i am still so unhappy , my face is flat , long and uneven what you describe is what happened to my face , i lost my identity . i had a break down and felt suicide and i am on antidepressant, guys you need to be very very careful when doing this treatment unless you WANT to loss fat on your face and dont mind the risk of uneven ,go ahead and have it done , otherwise stay away from this treatment .

When did ur face fat stop melting?I had done ultherapy on ur full face?

Yes, I had ultherapy on my full face and neck.
It has been 1 year and 9 months- Still unhappy and chasing treatments - I just recently tried fillers in my cheeks. My face is small. It does not look natural to add fillers. The banding in the neck is also devestating!!! Botox ($$$$$$) treatments help a little but only last a few months.
All my changes happened within the first year. Downhill slide- Depression- Aged skin! Flat, uneven, long unflattering appearance. Why would anyone pay for this to look older.

Which fillers did u do?I'm looking of solutions to fix my face but everything seems to have side effects and I'm scared now

I am going though the same thing right now. I feel like crying. I used to look beautiful and young, now look old and PARALYZED. Do NOT do this to yourself ladies!!!

Thanks
