What can I do to reduce my knee wrinkles?
Answer: Minimizing the Appearance of Wrinkles on Knees With wrinkles on the knees, and just above them, you must consider that the loose skin is coming from the entire thigh and falling down to the knee. The biggest mistake I see practitioners make is only treating that wrinkled skin and nothing above it. I would recommend full thigh skin tightening with either the bodytite by Inmode or the renuvion by APYX. Superficially, I would treat the entire area with strong, microneedling RF devices, such as the Morpheus8 or the SylfirmX. You would want to do at least three of these treatments. One last trick for particularly challenging cases is to add a fair amount of hyper dilute Radiesse to the whole thigh and knee area to build up a nice sheet of deep collagen. And as always go to an experienced practitioner that has lots of cases using all of these modalities

Answer: Morpheus8 can help tighten loose skin around the knees 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. Best, Dr. Karamanoukian Realself100 Surgeon

Answer: CIT It looks like you would be a great candidate for CIT (which stands for collagen induction therapy). CIT is very effective in treating the following skin conditions: wrinkles, loose skin, skin aging, stretch marks (striae distensiae) cellulite, hyperpigmentation and scars. A few sessions can be needed but we can already see great results after the first one. Of course, an « in person » consultation is necessary. I hope this helps, best of luck !

Answer: Reduce wrinkles around your KNEE RF micro-needling can be used "head to toe" to treat loose skin, wrinkles, poor skin textures, etc. anywhere it is loose. It is also safe for all skin types. It would work great for that area above your knee.

Answer: Non surgical Hey there! Since your wrinkles are very mild you could try something non surgical such as morpheus 8! It is a simple procedure. You may need it twice and this is done under local anesthesia. I hope this helps!
