Is It Possible To Have Ultherapy on Nose & Upper Lip? In Not, Why?

August 31, 2011
Asked By:PhoenixRising in HKG

My upper lip has lengthened considerably as I've aged - so much so that it has changed my smile. This has been upsetting for me. As I have a dark olive complexion & scar too easily so wish to avoid surgery. Ulthera seemed to be the best solution, as I also have some skin laxity (I'm 37). When I went in for the treatment in Asia, the Dr. informed me that they DO NOT USE Ulthera on the upper lip (& nose) - what a let down! Is this normal practice in the States & if so, why?
