FROM MY LATEST MEDICAL MISSION
My husband and I spent some time in the Philippines working to repair cleft palates. This was a rewarding experience for us both and we look forward to joining more medical missions in the near future.

" Dr. Burgess performed Ultherapy around my mouth and lips and within 3 weeks I felt firmer and my lips appeared to be ‘lifted’ and more shapely. Now at 2 months, I am enjoying a more defined lip line. The procedure was less painful than I expected and took less than 30 minutes. "
