I have a thin face. In the past I had terrible loss of fat after having Thermage done on a very high heat setting - 1 treatment. I ended up having a face lift to put me back together. That was 15 years ago, and I look pretty good still, but still have little face fat, and am starting to have a few fine line in eyebrow area, under eye, and around mouth. I am wondering if Morpheus 8 would be a good choice for me for mild face tightening. I just worry it would remove more fat?
Answer: Morpheus8 for Facial Tightening without fat loss Yes. Morpheus8 is a good option to tighten skin without fat loss. The depth and energy can be easily adjusted with a Morpheus8 treatment to avoid fat loss. Cheers from Dallas!

Answer: Fat loss can be avoided by ensuring that proper settings are being used. Depth needs to be at minimal to not melt fat. 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: Mini Facelift & Mini neck lift -- FaceTite RF for internal skin tightening + Neck Liposuction for definition/contouring FaceTite can internally tighten the skin in the lower face and neck. After all the skin has been heated and contracted, we shape the neck with liposuction to give definition and remove stubborn pockets of fat. In one quick treatment, we can tighten skin, remove fat, and contour the lower face, jawline, and jowls with only a weekend of downtime. Keep in mind that combination approaches will give you a more significant improvement as opposed to a single procedure. I recommend getting a consultation with a board-certified cosmetic dermatologist and facial sculpting expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Answer: Morpheus8 for Facial Tightening Morpheus8 is a great option If your goals are to improve recurring skin laxity from your previous facelift without undergoing a secondary facelift. Morpheus8 is a fractional RF device which can be programed to different depths and energies. Currently, it is approved in the US for use up to a depth of 4 mm. At my practice, we develop a treatment plan for each individual patient depending on their particular goals and needs. This treatment plan includes the depth and energy used in different areas of the face and neck. More superficial depths will be used on the face and neck for a patient that does not require fat reduction, such as yourself. As always, please consult with a board certified plastic surgeon to see if you are a candidate for this procedure.
