I'm really starting to notice the sagging and bulging around the corners of my mouth. I did get Juvederm injected into the hollows under the corners of my mouth a few months ago, but I don't feel this helped much, and actually made the area look puffier to me. The same doctor recommended the Fotona4D procedure to me for this. But it's pretty pricey and multiple treatments are required. So, I'm just wondering if this truly is the best treatment for this issue. Would Ultherapy be a better option?
Answer: Sagging around mouth -- skin laxity -- threadlifting, thermage, ultherapy, face/neck lifting you may need a surgical intervention but non invasive options such as threadlifting, thermage, and ultherapy can help in the mean time. Best, Dr. Emer.

Answer: Ultherapy for Sagging Around the Mouth Ultherapy is not a great option for bulging around the corners of the mouth. Fillers may offer you better results.You are a good candidate in general for Ultherapy due to your age as we have more collagen to stimulate the younger we are. Ultherapy may work for preventation for you, so in that regards it is a good option to consider but marionette lines can be better softened with fillers.

Answer: Ultherapy and expectations. In theory Ultherapy can give you a lift, however in reality a real time consultation is needed to see how much lift is possible. Vector lifting with Ultherapy, Thermage, RF micro needling and other energy devices have their pros and cons, in your case it is important to lift not where the problem is, but where it arises from- hence the need to touch, feel and move.

Answer: Ultherapy Thanks for your question. The puffy areas form due to natural sagging of the skin. Ultherapy uses ultrasound to prompt the natural production of collagen which tightens and firms the skin. As a result, the skin is "lifted", reducing the bulges. Using cosmetic fillers around the mouth would only increase the puffiness. However, using Ultherapy in combination with fillers around the cheeks may be the solution to lift the skin and reduce the "bulges". I highly recommend scheduling a consultation, either in person or virtual, with a facial plastic surgeon in order to achieve your desired result.
