Actual RealSelf Patient Comment:  I have done quite a bit of research on the differences between Profound RF and Ultherapy. I recently visited a board certified plastic surgeon’s office to inquire about a face lift. He noted that my premature jowls made me a good candidate for Ulthera (quoted at $4000). I know he does not offer Profound RF so I could not ask him for an UNBIASED opinion between the two for me. Money is a factor that leans me to Ulthera, however, I am looking for significant lift. What is your recommendation?

Dr. Persky’s Answer:  I have performed both procedures Ultherapy and ProfoundRf for many years. I would most likely treat you with Ultherapy as well as a foundational treatment of Sculptra on bone to help with your pre-jowl and cheek concerns. As with any aesthetic treatment please carefully choose your treating physician. Feel free to contact me with any further questions or a virtual consultation if you wish.
