I've recently started looking at laser procedures offered at Cosmetic Surgery offices and want to know how effective they are, which laser procedure would be the most effective and how long will itwh take to see results. Does redlight therapy wirk for skin tightening, like it's advertised as well?
Answer: A combination of microneedling and radio frequency will help stimulate collagen and tighten up loose 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: Non-Surgical Face Lift / Skin Resurfacing with Renuvion/J-Plasma -- add Lasers, Microneedling/PRP, Ultherapy, FaceTite In our practice, we perform a non-surgical face lift / skin resurfacing treatment using Renuvion Helium Plasma Radiofrequency. To get the most improvement with skin tightening, we combine Renuvion (formerly J-Plasma) with lasers (Fraxel, Clear + Brilliant, CO2), microneedling/PRP, Ultherapy and InMode FaceTite. I suggest getting a formal evaluation with a cosmetic dermatologist. Best, Dr. Emer

Answer: Do Lasers Really Work? There are several laser skin resurfacing devices that have some skin tightening results. The lasers in general do not have significant visible tightening but correct the skin’s sun damaged skin. The Deka Dot laser is a fractionated ablative C02 laser that tightenings skin and clears topical sun damage. Redlight therapy does not tighenskin to an appreciative degree.

Answer: Laser Treatments for Skin Tightening One of the newest laser treatments I offer at my office is the 3-D Laser. It requires no pain and no downtime, with great results. It tightens, firms and lifts the skin. I usually recommend three treatments spaced 4-6 weeks apart for best results. The Red light therapy activates collagen production to improve the visible signs of aging, to restore glowing, healthy-looking skin but isn't as effective as laser treatments when it comes to tightening of the skin.
