Answer: Loose skin after weight loss Loose skin after weight loss is now one of the most common reasons patients are coming to our office. Fortunately, we have some excellent non-surgical options. The simplest solution is to target some of the creases that form around the mouth with some hyperdilute dermal fillers. If we combine it with PRP (AutoCorre HD) we can get results that last over a year. We can also use a technique called Y_Lift to use fillers ot extend the jawline and cheekbones back to create a non-surgical lift. PDO threads are dissolvable threads that can create an instant lift and the results will last between 6 months and 1 year. This technique requires multiple syringes (5-10) to achieve the best results but because the fillers are placed in a pocket over the bone, they don't migrate and can last for many years. Energy devices to tighten the skin like the SylfirmX uses microneedling to deliver radiofrequency energy into the skin creating a "shrinkwrap" effect. The ultimate solution short of a face lift surgery is to replace the lost volume with a fat transfer. The fat is taken from another area on your body and transferred to the areas of your face where you have lost volume. When performed properly, this will give you a very natural result that can last a lifetime. Consulting a doctor who is skilled in performing all the different procedures will help you avoid getting a "one size fits all" procedure that might not be the best option for your specific needs.

Answer: HA Fillers Work Well For Addressing Jaw Jowls, Chin Irregularities, & Straightening & Defining The Jawline You can relax. There are robust HA fillers that can straighten and define a jowly jawline; others that can increase chin projection and smooth chin dimples and divets. What's more, in the hands of an experienced, board certified cosmetic dermatologist filler injection expert, all of the aforementioned can be done, if so desired, in one treatment session of about 30minutes, typically with on-the-spot results and usually with little to no significant post-treatment downtime. Hope this helps and best of luck.
