How Long After Ultherapy Do I Need to Wait Before Getting Lip Waxing?

Question

I had Ultherapy 3 days ago. How long must I wait before I get the area above my lips waxed?

Edward J. Gross, MD · Answer

Luckily with this great
procedure there is minimal to no downtown related.  Immediately you will feel some tingling,
slight tenderness, and possibly some numbness, so it would be your own comfort
level with the waxing and what you are experiencing with the Ultherapy response
on your skin.

Ron Shelton, MD · Answer

Lip waxing might be approved by the doctor performing your Ultherapy for the next day, however, if there was the utilization of the 1.5 mm. superficial transducer, and if welts had occurred and persist, then the skin might be more susceptible to injury by the waxing. Please be sure to check with the provider, after you have the Ultherapy as to when you can have the waxing.
