Does the Pico Genesis firm sagging skin under chin?

While the PICO Genesis treatment can help with wrinkles and slight skin sagging on the face, its primary purpose is to diminish the appearance of hyperpigmentation. It is not an ideal treatment for loose skin under the chin such as jowls, neck folds or submental fullness. However, there are a multitude of treatments that are designed to target aging skin on the neck, including Ultherapy, Kybella, truSculpt 3D and neck lifts. You should schedule a consultation with a reputable physician in your area to find out which one might work best for you. 

Thanks for your question, KayAllen! Depending on the placement and kind of sagging skin you have, PICO Genesis may be able to somewhat diminish the appearance of loose skin. The PICO Genesis treatment helps stimulate collagen production, which can restore volume and structure to your skin. The PICO Genesis laser is primarily designed to help with age spots, acne and wrinkles on the face, though, so if your concerns are located under the chin or on the neck you may want to explore other treatment options. There are several methods designed for tightening loose skin on the neck, including ultrasound therapies and neck lifts. You should schedule a consultation with an experienced plastic surgeon in your area to find out what kind of treatment might give you the best results. I hope this helps!

No Pico Genesis is not the recommended procedure for sagging skin under the chin. You would be best to consider ultherapy, a non-invasive ultrasound one time treatment to lift and tighten skin. Pico Genesis is best used to treat individual benign pigmented lesions.

Generally NO. Pico genesis can help with collagen stimulation for fine wrinkles, lines, and pigment. For sagging skin in the neck area, surgical options provide the most reliable outcomes. Threads and HIFU can work in select individuals. All the best, Dr Davin Lim. Brisbane. Australia.
