I'm 48 years old with crepey forearm skin due to weight loss. Are there any permanent treatments to address this?

Morpheus 8 is a non-invasive skin and soft tissue tightening treatment that is consistently amazing in our patients. We use the Morpheus to exact fractional induced RF into the skin or tissue in order to tighten collagen and stimulate contraction of the tissue. For acne scars, it is quite useful to build collagen in patients who have atrophic scars but is not very productive for ice-pick scars which require TCA Cross. For tissue tightening, Morpheus is ideal for the face and neck and we often combine it with CO2 laser or Ultherapy to further enhance results. Chemical peels and skin resurfacing should be done at least 5 to 7 days after, but can be performed earlier, depending on treatment severity. Avoid exfoliating skin treatments before Morpheus and expect a period of 2-4 weeks for skin contraction to set in.

The only permanent treatment is death. Otherwise, as you age, your skin will thin and become more lose and crepey. Treatments like Secret, radiofrequency and micro-needling, can be very helpful to treat and maintain better skin quality, thickness, and tone. This can be done even once or twice a year as maintenance.

It is not uncommon to observe the excess of the forearm area.
The only way to improve it is removing the excess which is always an excess of width. So the incision will be from the elbow towards the wrist.
It is of course a very visible incision but it fades over time.
Be encouraged.
