Question: I understand that ultherapy and other similar procedures work by creating a controlled injury that triggers the production of collagen. Are there any concerns about the body undergoing this type of "injury"? Answer: Ultherapy or microfocussed ultrasound delivers treatment to the skin and underyling muscle to promote skin tightening and new collagen formation. The depth of energy observed through ultrasound and is very safe. There is no negative systemic effect on the body.

Question: I'm interested in undergoing ultherapy. How long after treatment will I see results? Will there be any visible results right away? Answer: Some patients see results right away from the Ultherapy treatment. However, the results continue to improve for 3-6 months after treatment from this ultrasound based therapy. Although we most commonly use the treatment to tighten the jowls and neck, we have recently been able to perform buttock cheek lifting with Ultherapy.

Question: How do the results of a facial peel compare to laser skin resurfacing?Answer: In general most peels performed today are done by estheticians. These are usually some kind of glycolic acid peel. They are done to improve skin brightness and can also unclog blackheads. The very aggressive peels that were done years ago by physicians for the treatment of wrinkles and acne scars have mostly been replaced by laser or laser-like procedures such as Fraxel, Profractional or e-Matrix. Laser procedures, in contrast to aggressive peels deliver more consistently good results and have a lower complication rate when performed correctly.
