Its been over two months since the treatment and there is still numbness along the jawline of both sides. My skin generally does feel tighter to the touch, but not visually significantly different still as yet. Eyes appear lifted (less hooded) but little notable difference to lower lids which were a problem area. Will update again.

Hi amber, do you still have numbness around jawline? I had the treatment done 6 weeks ago and still numb. Starting to get bit concerned.

Hi Lee1971cars. Yes unfortunately I still have some degree of numbness although seems to have improved. If the treatment still meant to be working away at 3-6 months then maybe it takes that long for the side effects to settle too. Try not to worry as it is a slow progressive process. Hope it turns out well for you :-)

Hi there, I just came across your very helpful diary of your experience as I am considering this treatment, I am 47 and have good skin with a slightly sagging jawline , I have been advised that I am a good candidate but I remain skeptical of the cost benefit ratio in the various reviews here on Real Self especially as most are USA based, it appears that this is a relatively new treatment in the UK although that lots of the reputable clinics are promoting this treatment now. After lengthy discussions I have been advised this treatment is a lot more tolerable as I have voiced my concerns over the painfulness as discussed here on Real Self....apparently there is a newer machine but I don't have the model details to hand, could I ask you where you had the treatment and what type of machine was it ? I haven't been able to see many before and after pictures at the clinic either..the clinic says clients are reluctant to share images which I can understand, but it's difficult to make any judgements on how successful the treatment actually is, i am being quoted £3000 face and neck...I'm also looking into silhouette soft a newer version of threading with instant results and I'm going for a consultation tomorrow at the same clinic, again I've been advised I'm a good candidate....I've previously had Intracel which was painful and a complete waste of money...which I was talked into, so I'm concerned that the clinics all seem to get these treatments at once and it becomes sales based rather than what actually works...no one seems to mention Intracel anymore which would suggest it was driven by sales and it doesn't really work ( not the same clinic btw) ...I have been to a few. I would appreciate your comments especially as I note you are a year down the line...many thanks.

Great will look forward to that had a consultation today for the silhouette soft, hmmm not sure all a bit vague about the results, apparently initially it's good with a instant lift of about 0.5 cm then it drops, and then the collagen is supposed to regenerate and re lift....after several weeks and the string and cones are gradually re absorbed, again nothing in the way of any real photographic evidence other than the bank photographs. I suspect this is to manage your expectations...especially if it drops, I have read this on threading before along with possibility of puckering....Quoted 2500 for mid face and jawline and the same for Ultherapy mid face and two finger width underneath the neck 2500, 4500 for full face and neck, how does that compare with what it cost you if you don't mind me asking for the Ultherapy...

I have inboxed you but just thinking back, i dont think i had my neck done as did not have concerns about the jawline. The therapy was done all along under the jawline and the whole face and thats what the price was for.

Hi. It's been about 2 weeks since the top up treatment where I had noticed an immediate improvement to the eyes, however this was short -lived and everything now looks as before Ulthera. I can't see any noticeable visual improvement. Skin feels firmer but not lifted. Will try and be patient as my therapist tells me I need to wait around 6 months for final result.

I went for my top-up treatment and despite being armed with maximum prescription only pain relief, the treatment was still quite painful. The painkillers which were taken in advance yo ensure they had kicked in, only took the edge off the pain, hence I only just managed the treatment. I'm not as swollen this time, but I guess possibly as the treatment time was less. I do notice a difference to my eyes this time round which I'm pleased about. Just hope it's not short lived. The therapist tells me I should maximum results in about 6 months. I'm really astonished in how some people say they did not have any pain as especially as maximum analgesia only slightly dulled the pain which was still quite significant. I will continue yo update.

I've not had laser but have had Nlite which was uncomfortable. I can usually handle pain but this was very painful especially in certain boney areas
