How Many Ultherapy Treatments Do I Need To Get The Best Results?
If you are considering getting an Ultherapy procedure, it is normal to have some questions before you begin the treatment
For example, you may be thinking, “How many times should I do the procedure?” or “How do I get optimal results?” First of all, it is a good choice if you would like to avoid surgery or maintain the effects of cosmetic surgery. Ultherapy is essentially a facelift that doesn’t require surgery. It is the only non-surgical ultrasound treatment for skin lifting on the brow, neck, and chin.

Optimal Number of Treatments
Additionally, it has been cleared by Health Canada and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for skin lifting. Moreover, it is suitable for anyone with any amount of laxity. Even if you are in your 30s, you can get the procedure to maintain a fresh, youthful look or if you have mild to moderate skin laxity.
Most patients will only need one treatment, but some will benefit from more. It depends on how much laxity you have and how your body responds to the ultrasound and the collagen-building process. The number of lines of treatment depends on the surface area of the lower face and mid face, neck, and jowls, but it is usually around 400 to 750 lines of treatment, which will complete the neck and the whole face. In addition, age plays a factor.
According to RealSelf, it is recommended to try 2 treatments that are 6 months apart. Collagen usually takes that long to develop. If you wait, you will be able to see how much your skin has improved. That way, you can decide if you would like to repeat the procedure.
