I look at my arms, specially near my hands, and I notice many fine lines on it, and there is a noticeable a crepey texture. I wonder if its normal this kind of signs considering I am just 27 years old!?
Answer: Aging Skin Hello and thank you for your question! Sun damage, weight loss and aging are all related to the changes in our skin. I would recommend an in person consultation to discuss your concerns. A medical grade sunscreen is highly recommended, you may also speak with your provider and see if you are a candidate for microneedling with PRP or ResurFx. Our patients see great results with combination therapy and product. I hope this information helps and best of luck to you!

Answer: Multiple treatments such as Morpheus8, Venus Viva RF, Melapeels and melarase cream can all help improve skin. 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.

Answer: Microneedling, topical skincare and sunscreen Hi amanda.leiah, If you've had recent massive weight loss or unprotected sun exposure, fine line may develop - not just on your hands but on other exposed areas as well. Crepey skin would mean that some destruction of collagen has occurred. You can try topical skincare but you may want to consider microneedling with PRP for badly affected areas. And don't forget your sunscreen!All the best,Justin Harper, M.D.
