Hi, this is Dr Michael Persky from Encino California or as we like to call it here, the Beverly Hills of the San Fernando Valley. Today I’d like to talk to you about easing the pain during your Ulthera treatment.

Ulthera is the only FDA Approved non-invasive device that’s been approved for lifting, and tightening of the neck, face, and eyebrows. It’s a very effective treatment but the big thing that we hear from patients is they’re worried about the pain of the treatment. Certainly other practitioners who call us about Ulthera are also concerned about managing the pain of the treatment.

Over the past 3 years, we as facial plastic surgeons at Persky-Sunder Facial Plastic Surgery have developed techniques that make the ulthera treatment quite comfortable for our patients. As facial plastic surgeons,

we know the nerve distribution of the face and neck and are able to use small amount of strategically placed local anesthetic to make it a very comfortable procedure for patients.

In fact just yesterday, I received a very nice email which you can see on my blog at drpersky.com

The patient had her Ulthera treatment, extended neck treatment from the corner angle of her jaw to her clavicles to lift and tighten the neck and clean up the jaw line. She had it two days ago and wrote saying she couldn’t believe how relatively painless the procedure was. Even the injections she said she felt that we were injecting her in areas that are already numb.
So, Ulthera doesn’t necessarily have to be a painful procedure to get very very good results. We do perform all of our own anesthetic and treatments here.

If you have any concerns about Ulthera, any questions about it or the comfort levels during the treatment, feel free to call us and we’ll be happy to get back to you. Be well, Bye bye.
