I am 2 1/2 weeks out from my Ulthera- lower face-I have bruising along my cheekbones and by my ears to under my neck. I just looked at the bruises and they look absolutely no better than they did on Day 3. Im no longer sore to the touch- I was very sore first week or so . Is it possible that these bruises dont go away? Normally bruises change color etc. these are faint bruises that I can cover up with makeup but are very visibile without. Im getting concerned with no sign of improvement.
The redness is gone but they are pretty raised and look and feel like knots. If this is normal how long with it stay that way? I was told there is no recovery time and hat everything would look normal except for possibly some bruising. I have significant bruises on my cheeks as well.
After my restylane tear trough injections 5 weeks ago, the left eye showed significant bruising and swelling. Around week 3 this healed and swelling receded considerably. Thinking the timing was safe, I got Ultherapy 3 days ago above brows and crows feet and under eyes. The bruising and swelling came back instantly, with more swelling than before. Have been icing, and using arnica. Please help! The pics are from yesterday, and swelling is a little worse today.
It's been 3 weeks after ultherapy. The swelling is going down but not completely. My main concern is the bruising on my gums! I thought it was only skin deep, so why are my gums affected?! Also, my nose looks like it shrunk. The tip looks and feels shorter. Is this normal? Could it have actually shrunk? Or is it swelling or something else. I'm having so many wierd side effects and I'm so worried! Can anyone explain all this? Should I be worried?
I had ultherapy on lower face and neck yesterday. In the evening I noticed swelling and used ice packs. I went to the gym this morning as usual and had a tough workout (about 18 hours post procedure). Tonight the swelling is the same or worse and bruises are appearing. I have now read strenuous exercise is contraindicated if there is swelling. I am also experiencing numbness. Have I doomed myself to extended swelling thanks to the exercise? Does it matter if I continue to exercise strenuously now?
I had ultherapy 2 days ago on lower face (from under cheekbones to upper neck) and I did not bruise at all and swelling is very minimal with no tenderness on cheeks. I had a little over 600 lines total. Will my results still be as good as someone who bruised and swelled for days? Thanks.
