Neck laxity and Morpheus8?

For unique cases where a variety of modalities could be used to treat the condition, I would suggest an in-person or virtual consultation to develop a custom and effective treatment plan. It is difficult to precisely define the best option without collecting the same information. I suggest reaching out to an expert for a consultation with surgical and non-surgical methods to get a comprehensive option. Best, Dr. Emer.

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.

Hello, hope you are well. You are not too old for Morpheus8, but that would not be an appropriate procedure to address the skin laxity of your neck. The proper way to correct this would be with a surgical neck lift. Age does not determine your candidacy, but your physical health does. Just as with any other surgery performed under anesthesia, you would require a preop physical, labs, and EKG.

Its important for you to know that before getting any kind of procedure involving laser or radio-frequency, you must have a medical check-up by your dermatologist. We need to know your medical history to see if you are eligible for a treatment like Morpheus8.

If you are eligible, a combination between technologies like Co2, and Morpheus8 can help you a lot achieving the neck you desire! The amount of sessions depends on the desired results, and your ongoing recovery.

Hi Nonnijoanie, Typically it takes about 3 sessions of morpheus 8 to see results. In your case you might need an extra one or two after to really give you your desired look. We recommend each treatment to be about 4-6 weeks apart.

From the submitted photo the recommended procedure to address your neck is a surgical neck lift. Due to the amount of skin laxity Morpheus8 or other non surgical interventions will not likely yield noticeable improvement. See a board certified plastic surgeon near you to learn more.

Noninvasive treatments will be a waste of time and money at your age. The goal of a lower face and neck lift is to tighten loose facial and neck skin, tighten loose facial and neck muscles, lift the jowls, and remove the fat deposits that are present in your neck above and below the platysma muscle. Choose your facelift surgeon wisely, based on extensive experience producing natural results.
