How much does ultherapy cost and is it really a "lunch time" procedure?

Not medical advice: The cost of Ultherapy varies, however according to Joseph Campanelli, MD who practices in Minneapolis at Midwest Facial Plastic Surgery & Aesthetic Skin Care as a facial plastic surgeon, treatment costs for Ultherapy in their practice is $1500 (for upper face), $2500 (for lower face), and $3500 (for full face). The effects last for about 2 years.

Based on a review from RealSelf Ulthera Treatment was said to be a lunch time procedure or facelift because "if you don't mind the pain and the bruises when you report back to work, then you can do it over a 2 hour lunch break."

Ultherapy is an FDA approved nonsurgical procedure that uses medical ultrasound to firm and lift the skin. It tightens the skin giving it a more refreshed look. It is a quick procedure (an hour or so) and lets you return to normal activities right after treatment.
