How safe is Ultherapy for the eyes if scar tissue is present? (Photo)

jazzmindbabyApr 29, 2018
I am 38 getting married and Ultherapy was recommended by an esthetician to help with crows feet and a brow lift. I am concerned because 10 years ago I was in a serious car accident and the muscle of my eyebrow was severed. It has healed nicely and isn’t very noticeable. I am nervous that having the Ultherapy could further weaken this muscle. How founded are my fears?
