Ultherapy to Whole Face and Chin - Vallejo, CA

ORIGINAL POST

I had my treatment today. I had my whole face...

I had my treatment today. I had my whole face treated and under my chin. I had a pain pill an hour before ( which was not effective since I have an adverse reaction to a derivative of one of the ingredients ) I did take 800 mg ibuprofen before and when I got there they gave me a 10 mg Valium. I have to say the pain was not bad. I have had fraxel and the pain was so much easier to deal with. It was more like a long tingle and then heat. Then move to next spot long tingle and heat.

I'm swollen and red a bit but not anything bad. We' ll see how I look tomorrow. I took pics before and will post those too.

Oh and I had a little Xeomin in my forehead and around my eyes so I may bruise from that in the pics. The ibuprofen does that.

May I ask how many blasts (if that is the correct term of measure of each blast) of ultherapy you got on jaw, brow? And thank you for your posts, keep them coming.

Hi Nina, I'm sorry, I have no idea. She did however go over my cheeks/jowls 2-3 times. On my brow and temples and around my eyes I believe it was once or twice. She did directly under my chin and did that area about 3 times as well. Really not sure on pulses or blasts etc.

Thank you for sharing! I still holding on to my ultera treatment as quite skeptical on the effectiveness ...

You're one of the lucky and rare ones whose lines become them. I love your before's. The treatment definitely worked to remove the lines but it took something else with them. You kinda can't lose.

Day after treatment

First day after treatment. I woke up swollen and pink and a bit sore. Not too bad. Nothing compared to when I had Fraxel. My cheeks a still numb and again I am sore, but not bad. I was able to go out to the gym and get my car washed. I look a bit like a chipmunk. See pics.

Excellent, thank you for posting this helps me decide as I have been considering this treatment and was unsure. I think your face looks a lot fresher and looks like lines gone. What is Xeomin?

Your under eye area looks improved-maybe just swelling. You are beautiful!
