How Does Uthera Differ from E Prime?
A.We are fortunate to live in age when non-surgical skin lifting and tightening devices are available to treat patient who wish facial and neck rejuvenation without having to go to undergo “the knife.” Both Ulthera and Profound stimulate new collagen formation. Dr. Cho and other physicians have given excellent answers hereregardingthe differences between these two safe and effective technologies. I agree with them.In my practice,the main difference in my recommending one treatment over the other is the time that a patient has for recovery. For those patients who can afford 7 to 10 days for bruising and swelling to resolve while they catch up with reading, Netflix, housework, etc. I recommend Profound lift with PRP (plasma rich platelets). For those patients who request little to no downtime, Ulthera is their treatment of choice. As with any aesthetic treatment choosing your treating physician is essential for excellent results. Choose your treating physician based on their judgement, skill, experience, knowledge, and most importantly their natural artistic vision. Good luck and be well.
