What are the best non-surgical procedures for slightly crepey skin of the abdomen and buttocks after a 35 lbs weight loss?

Asked By:nachomama220 in Bayville, NJ

I am 65 year old woman with very young looking skin overall, as I've been told by many physicians, and have never experienced childbirth or stretch marks. Over the past year I've lost 35 lbs and work out 5 days a week. When I raise my arms up overhead I abdomen looks perfect but when I lower them the skin looks slightly crepey. The buttocks are always crepey even when I flex my glutes. I'm certain I can improve them by building up my glutes some more but would a procedure like Thermage make a difference?
