Can Ultherapy be used for the lips?
Great news. Ultherapy just released a new transducer that treats to a depth of 1.5 mm. This makes treatment of the lip effective and safe.

Ulthera is being studied for the cutaneous upper lip
There can be an off-label use of the infraorbital transducer, the smaller, newest transducer for the skin below the lower eyelid extending to the tear trough, for the cutaneous (skin-colored) upper lip by some physicians. Discuss this with your physician to see what the benefits vs. risks are.

Ulthera and the lips
Ulthera is approved for the brow and is used off label to treat the face and neck. It may eventually have applications around the lips, but no studies have addressed this - fillers and lasers and Botox are your best current available options.
