70 pound weight loss. Are there any non surgical procedures for tightening extra neck skin? (Photos)

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,
Congratulations on your weight loss that is a major achievement. After a loss of around 70 pounds, excess skin in the neck is very common and is mainly due to loss of skin elasticity.
Unfortunately, when there is true excess skin, non-surgical treatments such as radiofrequency, ultrasound, or skin-tightening devices have very limited effect. They may slightly improve skin quality, but they cannot remove or significantly tighten loose skin after major weight loss.
In this situation, a neck lift is the only truly effective option to remove the extra skin and restore a defined, natural-looking neck and jawline. It provides a clear, long-lasting improvement that non-surgical treatments simply cannot match.
A consultation would help confirm this, but based on your description, surgery would be the most reliable way to achieve the result you’re looking for.
Warm regards,Op. Dr. Yücel Sarıaltın
