There are many treatments for this area. Fractional co2 laser or fractional RF treatments are usually best to this area in combination with fillers and/or botox. I suggest you see a cosmetic dermatologist with experience in lasers and fillers. Best, Dr. Emer
Hi Laura. Those creases you refer to are called nasolabial folds. By lifting, toning and tightening the skin of the face Ultherapy can help soften the nasolabial folds a little bit. But, it's not really significant. Because the nasolabial folds deepen because of volume loss the best way to treat them is with dermal fillers. You are right though, Ultherapy does work very well for the jaw and jowls. Best of luck to you on your treatment!
Yes, Ultherapy can be used to reduce perioral or "smoker" lines. This is an off label treatment but is safe in the hands of an experienced provider. I hope this information is helpful for you.Stephen Weber MD, FACSDenver Facial Plastic Surgeon
Ultherapy can be helpful in achieving some tightening on areas of the face, neck and chest. When it is used to treat along the jaw, it is possible that there might be some improvement to the creases that run from the nose to the mouth. You would need to be examined to determine if you might be an appropriate candidate for the procedure.
The simple answer is yes, it will help with the nasal labial folds over time. Since Ultherapy stimulates your own collagen to grow it can take three to six months to see results. If you are looking for a more immediate results. You should look into fillers. These can also be combined with the Ulthera.Best of luck!
