Honestly, before the procedure, I read way too many reviews before going, so I got really scared There were especially a lot of comments like “it hurts a lot,” so I was nervous, but once I actually had it done, it wasn’t completely unbearable
The pain differs depending on the area The jawline just felt stiff, so it was manageable Around the cheekbones, it felt a bit like an electric sensation rising up Under the chin was honestly the hardest; I ended up frowning for a moment
The procedure time was shorter than I expected It felt like about 20–30 minutes? It ended quickly
Right after it was over, I looked in the mirror, and it didn’t feel like, wow, it lifted dramatically But my whole face did feel slightly tightened, and my jawline felt subtly more defined
There was almost no swelling, and there was still some heat sensation and slight throbbing I could go back to daily life right away
When I looked the next day, it wasn’t super obvious, but the lines felt a little cleaner Especially the jawline, which had looked blurry, became slightly more defined
I heard Ultherapy’s effects increase over 2–4 weeks, so I’m waiting for now
