AT A GLANCE
Ultherapy comfort varies between people and treatment plans. Tell the clinician about previous painful procedures and ask what sensations to expect, what comfort options are offered and how to signal that you need a pause.
Describe the kind of support you need
Saying that you are anxious is useful information, even if you do not know which comfort measure to request. Ask the clinic to explain the benefits, risks and practical requirements of any option it proposes. If medication is discussed, check transport and activity instructions with the clinician. Do not take extra medicine or assume sedation is included based on another clinic’s advertising.
Questions to bring to your consultation
Use these questions to turn your interests into a specific discussion with your doctor. Keep the proposed treatment, the reason for it and the follow-up arrangements together in your notes.
- What will I feel in the proposed treatment area?
- How can I communicate discomfort during the appointment?
- Does the proposed comfort plan change travel or escort requirements?
Your questions
Can Ultherapy be guaranteed painless?
No individual comfort level is guaranteed. Ask for an honest explanation of expected sensations and the clinic’s actual options before deciding whether to proceed.
