Skin tightening lasers give very little improvment. I offer it to my patients but make sure that they know it may give 15-20% max improvement.

Steven Wallach, MD answers: Can a fractional laser be used for a mini-lift?
I live in Texas and a doctor near me is offering an Energy lift that seems to help with a mini-lift. He says the fractional lazer is used to shrink connective tissue. Is this procedure worth it? long lasting? safe?

A: Laser will give you minimal tightening.

Yes, laser does tighten the skin. However, the effect is minimal and cannot in any way be compared to the gold standard of a traditional facelift. Based on your pictures, you could probably get a nice result with the combination of laser, Botox and fat grafting if you do not want to undergo a facelift. Good luck.
