Spanx for Your Face!

That’s how Ultherapy was explained to me, Spanx for your face. Haha. I couldn’t agree more. I lost a lot of weight last year and needed some skin tightening. I went to a few plastic surgeons that said I was a perfect candidate for a facelift. Then I went to Dr. Hopkins (retired plastic surgeon) and he said that’s everything wrong with the wrong doctor. I’m in my late 30’s and he said it was way too early and recommended Ultherapy. A plastic surgeon recommending this first, I’m in. I did some research and googled “most productive tightening procedure” and found Ultherapy. I liked that there was no downtime and that it was FDA cleared for my areas of concern. I had my brows done first and went back for my chin strap, necks and cheeks. It’s made a huge difference in the small lines that had started on my cheeks when I smile, and my brow wow is exactly that, I need less toxin now too. I’m going back at 9 months for my before and afters and I’ll repost! It was a little painful in certain areas but it only lasted a second, it was kind of like a little heat and it goes away as soon as you feel it. They had pronox so that really helped me to relax too. I used it only at the end but was happy to have it.
I also had zero downtime and put makeup on the next day. When I had a laser treatment last year, I couldn’t go out for a week and looked like a cabbage patch kid for 4 days.

Ultherapy uses focused ultrasound and heat to stimulate collagen and elastin. So that’s why you have to wait for your results. I’m assuming that’s why people rate it so differently. If the proper expectations are set in the beginning and you know it takes time for collagen to build (results are seen as early as 3 months but can be expected to continue for 6-9 months). I can’t wait to post my before and afters. I’m already thrilled with the lift I’ve seen.
